Lake has too much overflow ice near cabin
We can’t get the groomer out there til the overflow ice stops.
Snow!
Post grooming conditions. It’s all buried now.
Groomer
Groomed for skate/classic at 1130am, but it was snowing heavily at the time. In retrospect, would have been better to wait.
Groomed for Skate and Classic
Groomed campground for skate and classic, set classic track behind Methodist Camp. Lots of new snow, and snowing hard!
Montana Ck. grooomed for both skate and classic!
Both tracks in excellent condition. Very cold early AM. No one there before 9!
Grooming Montana Ck. this Am from 7 – 9
Grooming early, done by 9?
Eaglecrest lower loop almost 100% ready
Eaglecrest lower loop has good snow coverage on every inch of the trail. The groomers have been going out and packing the snow regularly, but so far have not set a classic track. If you get on the trail after they have groomed then it’s probably good skate skiing. Classic skiing is decent if you don’t mind not having a set track. There is only one section not packed – coming back from the meadow loop clockwise and dropping down the steep forest loop hill, but someone snowshoed it and then I classic skied it today so it’s starting to shape up. PLEASE take your dogs to one of the many, many trails that are multi-use (campground, Montana Creek, Eagle Beach, Herbert River, Spaulding, Lake Creek, etc.) Footprints of any kind on the new soft snow leave holes. Human or canine, if you’re not on skis or snowshoes you are not helping. Looking forward to opening day next Saturday!
