The Mendenhall Lake has not been groomed as it is mostly covered with standing water.

Mendenhall lake snows melted down to ice surface. Will take cooler weather and more snow before grooming continues.
Groomers On Fleek

Finished grooming lake 1:30
Outer loop was finished at noon and inner loop should be done by 1:30. Much of the washboarding was smoothed out by going slow with the groomer, about 10 mph. The downside is that it…

Awdigaan Yeèdat. That’s nice day to you in the local argot. If you know the secret to Roan Innish, you know you will have to find the empty skin of the selkie in the attic…
Best Classic Track In Town 🙂
Ok – it is still very skiable on classic gear. The track is icy and glazed in spots, but still ok. Skating is probably the best
Groomed Montana Ck early Sat. AM
Must walk to last rise before the bridge where machine is parked but creepers not necessary. Track is fast early but should slow as temps rise. Track is level and hard in most places with…
Montana groomed today about 10AM
Groomed up skate lane early and came out flat and fast. Its bound to warm up during the day but conditions this morning were excellent.
Thurs Nite – Still Good!
Still quite skiable for classic and skate after work. Did not look like it was groomed at all Thursday, but JNSC grooming equipment still on site. Plenty of snow to make it to the weekend.…

Upper loop EC on Saturday, March 23
Classic Xcd Upper Loop Saturday afternoon. Apparently had not been groomed since the 21st (?). Several “water hazards” to navigate and many pole plants went straight through the weak, soft snowpack with no bottom. And,…
Upper Loop is good
It’s worth the hike up. Coverage is great. The groomers fixed a couple creek crossings that overflowed. The cat left a few chunky spots but very skiable. 54F Tuesday afternoon and HOT.
Upper Loop Tuesday
Dave said that due to flooding issues on the mountain they didn’t have time to get over to groom the upper loop. But they should have it groomed on Tuesday.
Loops are good
It was snowing Th on both loops. The Upper Loop is faster than the Lower Loop as it’s just that much colder. Try both just because you can.
Good as it gets
Finished two trips around the tracks at 930 and no others on the trail. Snow is about as good as it gets. Violet wax was perfect for track conditions. Lower lot is now cleared and…

Eagle Beach is skiable with good snow coverage. However, the snow machine is down for needed repairs; consequently, the trails will not be freshly groomed over the weekend of Feb 16-17.

Cheers for the Pioneer Road!
The Pioneer Road grooming effort is a perfect example of our Nordic ski grooming efforts – it sounds trite, but it’s very true: “if you build it, they will come.” A huge pat on the…

Peterson/John Muir/Spaulding
