There’s great skiing for skate and classic at the upper Loop on Saturday.Mar 22, 2025 | Eaglecrest
Groomed for skate and classic. Clean, firm, fast. Ride Hooter with a pass, attach safety leashes to skis, use thumbs down near top if you want lift slowed when you get off.Mar 22, 2025 | Montana Creek Kaxdigoowu Héen
I just had to try grooming Montana Creek this morning at 8:30am, light rain and 30 degrees at the turn around. Past the bridge the ice pack is hard, not much more than grooved ice. If your hardy enough, ice cleats a must, there is a bit of slush on grooved ice on the...Mar 20, 2025 | Montana Creek Kaxdigoowu Héen
Despite the groomer’s gloomy report, I thought the skate skiing was decent, starting at the bridge and to the end. The usual icy spots had just enough texture to ski without a problem. Easy coming downhill. The grooming helped!! Thank you, Dave H!Mar 20, 2025 | Montana Creek Kaxdigoowu Héen

I left the existing classic track from about the middle up towards the end but then reset the classic closer to the end where there was...Mar 20, 2025 | Montana Creek Kaxdigoowu Héen

Skiing starts past the bridge. No new snow. Groomed for skate and classic. Soft with some icy spots. SGMar 19, 2025 | Eaglecrest
Pisten Bully and Ginzu groomed. Excellent conditions. The track is soft due to several inches of new snow. Hooter is open for easy access, or hike up Sneaky on the left side looking up.Mar 18, 2025 | Montana Creek Kaxdigoowu Héen
Montana Creek has been groomed for Both classic and skate. Skiing start at Bridge. Ice creepers are a must from gate to bridge.

500 feet is marginally skiable before the bridge, Icy. Very Icy Conditions on 30-50% of trail past the bridge. Grooming was not very effective and only grooved the ice on various sections. Upper section is skiable. 12 degrees at turn around. Ice cleats are a good idea...

Eaglecrest finally got the Hooter chairlift running and nordic skiers can ride the lift with their nordic pass, alpine pass, or day pass. Attach your skis to your boot with a simple piece of cord or a ski leash. Alaska State Law. You can signal the lift operator at...
