Skate Sprints, Saturday

Feb 3, 2023 | Mendenhall Campground, Mendenhall Lake

Saturday, Feb 4 starting at 9:30am will be the ski club’s annual Skate Ski Sprints! We’ll be on the Mendenhall Lake in the small, inner loop near Skater’s Cabin. No need to be a Jesse Diggins to test your speed over the ~800m heats…come one,...

Grooming

Jan 31, 2023 | Mendenhall Campground

Bare minimum sticky snow over treacherous ice. Rolled and ginzu’d to compact. No classic track. Skate okay, classic difficult. Ice dangerous in places. May groom again later if much accumulation. BF

while it was reported that the lake was groomed, it is also reported that the ice is thin from 20 to 30 feet from the shore line due to a rise in the lake. Going on the lake is always at your own risk. Conditions are always changing.

Lake was groomed but still soft and hard ice under, will be better for skiing in the morning after we get a freeze tonight. The campground was groomed with only a few inches of snow over the ice and pavement base. Still need more snow.
