MT Creek is groomed for skate and classic. Rained heavy between 9-10 AM but light sprinkle now. Skating was initially soft but now the JNS team has packed it down and it’s quite good. Classic is great. Thanks to AM, who volunteered to come out with a shovel and clean up all of the doggie mess.
A heads up: the Juneau Nordic Ski Team will be practicing at Montana Creek from 10-12 saturday. Say hi to our amazing team if you are on the trails. Coach Merry
Eagle Beach was groomed for skate and classic Friday evening. Conditions are generally good, with soft, wet snow. Beware of tree debris (needles, twigs, small sticks) in parts of the back loop.
Groomed skate and classic. Looks pretty good. A little debris from yesterday’s wind but over all decent conditions. 36 degrees, very light drizzle and calm. 4 skiers with smiles on their faces when I finished.
I’ll post again after I checkout the campground about 9:30.
Channel your inner Juneau kid, you know the ones that play outside all day and never seem to notice the rain. Fresh groom and track set this morning. Skate skiing was nice, if a bit soft. You will be happy if you go ski and ignore the rain, completely worth it.
Note to dog owners: please clear your dog’s poop completely off the trail – otherwise the groomer makes brown corduroy, and nobody wants that. Thanks in advance for your attention to this important matter!
