Eaglecrest lower loop looks good

Feb 23, 2018 | Eaglecrest

Eaglecrest lower loop looks good for classic and skate. It is not “officially” groomed, but they have been compacting it and set a classic track the other day, so it looks pretty darn good from my perspective. Come ski some new terrain!

Eaglecrest lower loop set last night.

Lower Loop Classic Track Set

Feb 19, 2018 | Eaglecrest

Lower loop classic track set by EC with snowmachine late this afternoon. Should set up for nice classic skiing tomorrow. Skate remains ungroomed since compaction with snowcat, and looks to be marginal, but possible. Probably won’t see another snowcat lap until...

Lower loop better than expected

Feb 18, 2018 | Eaglecrest

The lower loop has good coverage all around and is very skiable. Even without a classic track it is solid ski touring for just about any level. Skate looks good too. I could not find any real hazards, just a few small twigs here and there.

Lower loop revised report

Dec 3, 2017 | Eaglecrest

Lower loop is better than yesterday but still rough for skating. Only 1/2 skate lane that collapses on one side. Skiable for advanced skiers. Classic is better, softer snow on sides. Use caution

Eaglecrest lower loop in rough shape

Dec 2, 2017 | Eaglecrest

The lower loop is in rough shape after the last thaw-freeze cycle. The classic track is skiable, hard and fast. The snow on either side of it is rough frozen cat tracks where they tried to pack it, so there is little room to maneuver outside of the classic track and...

Eaglecrest lower loop almost 100% ready

Nov 25, 2017 | Eaglecrest

Eaglecrest lower loop has good snow coverage on every inch of the trail. The groomers have been going out and packing the snow regularly, but so far have not set a classic track. If you get on the trail after they have groomed then it’s probably good skate...
