Headed up to EC to groom this morning. Expect to set the upper loop for classic and skate and will be finished by 0830. I will see what I can do to the lower loop, but I have low expectations due to very low snow cover. Islandboy

I reset skate lane and it’s fairly good. The classic track is ok but there are areas of gravel and man- hole covers. Also snow is thin over the speed bumps, so you’ll want to slow...Jan 12, 2024 | Mendenhall Campground
I’ll groom the campground about 10:00 this morning. JTJan 11, 2024 | Mendenhall Campground
Where else but the campground can you sunbathe on a 4° January morning? Where else can you ski across terrain features like speed bumps, and manhole covers? Bring your old skis and delight in views of the disappearing glacierJan 11, 2024 | Montana Creek Kaxdigoowu Héen

Drilled Mendenhall lake today a 1:50 Pm. Air temp 19f Snow cover on Lake is 1.5 inches over 2.5 inches of soft bubbly ice. The recent snow fall is insulating the Ice and slowing the freezing process down. Still way to early for Juneau Nordic Ski Club Grooming. Be safe...Jan 10, 2024 | Mendenhall Campground
Groomed for skate. Thin in places but very nice otherwise. Classic track is in very poor condition.Jan 10, 2024 | Eaglecrest
Upper Loop groomed this morning. Hilda Meadow/Stadium, Black Bear Hill, and part way toward Lower Hilda groomed for skate and classic. It turned out really nice. There are still some staubs to watch out for, muskeg pond dips, off camber areas and a few ridges / track...Jan 9, 2024 | Eagle Beach
Went for a stroll out the road this morning and discovered what appears to be nearly untouched grooming! Didn’t have my skis so didn’t venture back into the trees, but there’s more snow out there than anywhere else south on the road system.Jan 9, 2024 | Mendenhall Campground

Drilled Mendenhall Lake Jan 7th 2024 at 1330 hr. Air temp 28f. Ice appeared bubbly and soft with a measured thickness of 2 inches. It is unsafe at this time for the Juneau Nordic Ski Club to do any grooming on the Lake until ice conditions...
