January 29. grooming is postponed until later. Winds back here are extremely strong with gusts greater than 50. Things are flying around. And of course, the horizontal rain is pretty impressive too. -DG-Jan 28, 2024 | Mendenhall Campground
Following up on Jeff’s comment — Does anyone else feel like something needs to be done about the dog shit on the ski trails problem? It seems to be getting worse. I know people like to ski with their dogs, but why should the rest of us have to be dodging big smears of...Jan 28, 2024 | Mendenhall Campground
The campground is groomed, dog shit and all. Soft but still fun, light rain.Jan 27, 2024 | Mendenhall Campground
Roller groomed with many footsteps. Skating possible & classic using existing track. Conditions should get better over time.Jan 26, 2024 | Mendenhall Campground
Grooming was challenging in the soft snow, and skating will involve some extra cardio. Classic track set pretty well.Jan 25, 2024 | Mendenhall Campground

Grooming will begin this afternoon after moving some equipment around. Tracks are probably still good this morning from 5 PM grooming yesterday.Jan 24, 2024 | Mendenhall Campground
Four hours of tag-team track setting, and grooming resulted in a pretty decent track for both skating and classic. Should be really nice in the morning.Jan 24, 2024 | Mendenhall Campground

1515: partially groomed. Tag team new groomer started now setting classic. Soft. Trees shedding. Thanks to two good samaritans who helped me unstick the groomer. BFJan 23, 2024 | Mendenhall Campground
I spent 4 hours there yesterday with the Monday guy, and five hours today. Sorry, not done. I was just trying to pack down some of the snow so we can actually move a machine when it stops. I did run the groomer for skate only on just the first loop. Surface still very...Jan 22, 2024 | Mendenhall Campground
Anticipate plenty of problems and difficulties depending on amount and condition of snow. Hope to be partially groomed by noon, if I can get my driveway obligations done enough to groom. BFJan 22, 2024 | Mendenhall Campground
1015. Too much snow. Equipment problems. Starting track-packing. It will be a few hours. BFJan 21, 2024 | Mendenhall Campground
Cranked up on roasted marshmallow and chocolate the campground got a refresh by a couple of amateur groomers. Not really up to Scott Fischer standards, but pretty good enough for the after party. Finished about 4pm.Jan 21, 2024 | Mendenhall Campground
Groomed for skate and classic but it’s snowing hard @ 9:30 so you better hurry.Jan 19, 2024 | Mendenhall Campground
Left classic untouched as too hard to improve. Did make three passes with Ginzu and cleaned up much of skate marks but that surface is also very hard. No real wind there and at least it’s a good day to get a lap in before heading back for hot liquids. The Stone...
