Lower loop not groomed but still skiable

A few inches of new snow on top of a thin, hard base that has a rough surface. You can ski it if you’re okay with rougher conditions instead of a smooth, groomed trail. Watch for a few cracks across the trail and other hazards.

Upper loop refresh

The upper loop trails got a grooming refresh last night and then a powder refresh on top of that. It’s fun skiing, especially the downhills. The big hill on the left side of the Troy loop did not get a fresh groom, but is still very skiable. Use caution on that...

Eaglecrest is closed Thursday Jan 5

The skiing has been very good on the upper loop and should continue through the weekend. Keep in mind there will be no grooming on Thursday, January 5 as Eaglecrest will be closed. Never fear! They will reopen on Friday and continue to groom the full upper loop for...

Excellent conditions on upper loop

Fully groomed for skate and classic, including the FULL Troy loop. The big Troy hill is fun! Trickster is now groomed for easy access. Skate skiing is fast. Classic skiing is decent.

Upper loop groomed

Upper loop groomed for skate and classic. I’m going to check it out this morning it’s probably the only good nordic skiing in Juneau at the moment.

Lower loop water park!

The lower loop is still skiable, but water hazards exist. Watch for open water spots and streams with running water that go across the trail. The upper loop is probably holding up much better.

Ice Ice Ice

Salmon Creek is solid ice from top to bottom. Not even fun to walk on with aggressive cleats. SG

Looks can be deceiving

Salmon Creek Ketchup

Salmon Creek got the business Friday. Wet. SG headed out Saturday. Likely improved with additional snow. Will assess this morning and report back.
Groomed!

Groomed!

Was out with the fam yesterday morning and arrived to a winter wonderland! Freshly groomed skate with a little classic track to boot. They had about a foot of snow two days ago. Probably still great...
