North Douglas Pioneer Road

This is a ‘pop-up’ Nordic skiing location, groomed when snow conditions allow. It is a fun, hilly 3.5 mile/5.6km ski to the end of the road (7 miles/11.2km roundtrip). Due to the rough aggregate on this new road, skiers should watch for sharp rocks (and remove them when possible). This trail is accessed just 1/4 mile shy of the end of the North Douglas Highway. The parking area at the gated trailhead is NOT plowed. If you park on the highway, please park as far off to the side as possible. DOG OWNERS BEWARE OF ACTIVE TRAP LINES IN THE AREA!
