Groomer
Just getting started on resetting Pioneer Road. Gray sky, snowing lightly, no wind. Conditions should be prime.
The N. Douglas pioneer road is groomed when conditions permit. It is a fun hilly 3.5 mile (5.6 km) ski to the end of the road. 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 N. 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. Juneau, AK 99801. DOG OWNERS BEWARE OF ACTIVE TRAP LINES IN THE AREA!

Pioneer Road not groomed since Friday and in good condition. Snow had firmed up in the morning and classic track was smooth and fast. Hooters at the end of the trail clammed up with the…

DetailsSoft and sweet, come and get it! Finished grooming at 1:30 and it’s getting very nicely
Skied to end and back at 1 pm and only person on the trail. Never remember there being this much snow on the pioneer road this late in the season! Classic tracks were shallow and…
DetailsNew Corduroy as of 9 am Sunday Morning. Classic is good.
Skate-ski and foot traffic portion of the road has been groomed. The classic was in decent enough condition that it didn’t warrant being reset. It’s wet and raining, so use wax for warm temps.
