Fat Boy

Lower loop had about an inch of wet snow on the ungroomed trail. Corn snow not sticky like yesterday and more manageable for an overweight dude on waxless classic skis.

Lower Loop

The Lower Loop was excellent for skating as the corduroy is soft, but not deep, perfect for those high speed turns. The classic track was shallow. Swix Blue 45 offered a decent kick midday.

Eaglecrest lower loop just keeps getting better

Lower loop freshly groomed for skate and classic every morning, and it’s getting better and better. Sunday should be very nice with the promise of just a little bit of new snow to smooth out an already perfect track. Blue glide wax and Blue to Blue Extra kick...

Freshly Groomed

Eaglecrest skate freshly groomed and classic track set with a quarter inch of new snow and snow falling. Fast conditions.

Still Skiable, but………

Lower trail on Eaglecrest was skiable on waxless skis today but a bit icier than yesterday and the tracks are getting shallow with the melting. Need either some snow or warmer temps. If it freezes, it will be an ice rink unless they can groom.

Mark

Lower loop still decent on waxless skis at 1 pm today. Lighter rain and shelter from the wind on most of the trail.

Eaglecrest lower loop has standing water

Due to standing water on the lower loop, Eaglecrest groomers cannot go out on the track to groom. The good news is that the rain should end by tomorrow and colder temps are in the forecast, so stand by for a hopefully better report by Thursday.

Eaglecrest surprisingly good!

The lower loop was nicely groomed today and skiing was very nice. Snow is soft and forgiving, skate skiing lane wide and sweet, classic track well set. Don’t let the rain deter you! It’s a skier’s playground at Eaglecrest.

Eaglecrest Fantastic

Lower Eaglecrest fantastic today for a fat man on fish scale nordic skiis. The grab is good on the steep uphill parts. About an inch of new snow.

Eaglecrest is excellent

Conditions are excellent for skating and classic even though they haven’t groomed since Monday morning. The winds are gone and so is most of the tree debris. Get vitamin D ~9:20 for an hour and again at 11 ish.
