Not groomed this morning. Water on ice. If you can get to the bridge the trail maybe OK. The groomer did not get that far.Dec 20, 2014 | Montana Creek Kaxdigoowu Héen

Montana Creek will be groomed Saturday morning.Dec 19, 2014 | Mendenhall Campground
The Camp Ground will not be groomed Saturday. There is 1/2 inch or less snow on the ice and it is not bonded to the ice. More snow is needed.Dec 19, 2014 | Montana Creek Kaxdigoowu Héen
1 ” of new snow together with Doug’s grooming helped improve the trail for skate skiing Friday morning. There’s still a few icy spots and rocks looming just below the surface but by in large very good skiing all things considered.Dec 18, 2014 | Montana Creek Kaxdigoowu Héen
When Scott found that he couldn’t groom the campground yesterday (Wednesday), he went to Montana Creek and started grooming there. He and Don Thomas were able to get the machine across the bridge despite the low snow cover and groomed the road so that skate...Dec 17, 2014 | Eaglecrest
The Porcupine Lift is closed til Saturday and the 2″ of soft snow (1″ new ) is perfect for skating up and down the Dolly Varden and Muskeg runs.Dec 17, 2014 | Mendenhall Campground
Scott just called in from Mendenhall Campground. He was going to try to groom today, but reports that the entire loop is an ice rink. No skiing at the campground until we get more snow.Dec 16, 2014 | Montana Creek Kaxdigoowu Héen
Montana creek holding on. JM recommends bare feet for the first hundred yards for the full experience. It is alternatingly, thin, soft, wet but still skiable and all fun. Well ,Like McClane says, “It doesn’t have to be fun to be fun.”Dec 15, 2014 | Mendenhall Campground
Thanks for grinding the ice, even Monday morning! — made skiing possible! L&K, Die-hard skierDec 15, 2014 | Mendenhall Campground
Well not much left to groom. I went around once but what was left of the slush on ice turned to just ice. Most of the entire lap is now ice. We need some snow!Dec 15, 2014 | Montana Creek Kaxdigoowu Héen
Don was grooming as of 10:00 AM, Monday. Don’t be fooled by conditions at the gate, which is water covered ice, and truck tracks. The snow is holding up fine past the container where the grooming equipment is stored. Spring conditions, very skiable. Bon Apetit....Dec 15, 2014 | Eaglecrest
With our recent rain and warm temperatures, most of the lower loop has melted down to muskeg, gravel, or glare ice, so we are done skiing there until we get at least 6-8 inches of fresh snow. If you walk the trail, you will want your ice cleats. OK to walk your dog on...Dec 15, 2014 | Mendenhall Campground
I will groom this morning at first light and report back after I’m done. Hope there’s enough left to come out decently.

Someone groomed the skate lane midday and softened some of the classic lanes. The snow cover on the road is really thin (no asphalt yet). The trail is ok. Scales are best as blue klister didn’t work with afternoon warmth. Some twigs in classic track but mostly...
