Jeff got out on the groomer today and gave the park a onceover. Get out and enjoy the clear skies and great snow. Try the Viewscape Perimeter Trail in the Moose Meadow! pz...
Take a circumnavigation tour around the Moose Meadow and see a side of Girdwood most have never seen! Our narrow gage groomer is making a nice path to follow for all users. You may have to step aside for other users out on the trail but you will mostly have the trail to yourself. Thanks to the chief Snow Dog operator!! All other lower valley trails have also been gone over. If you like this kind of groomed snow trail please attend the next Girdwood Trails Committee and ask for more. pz...
Groomers are out this morning! Get first tracks or fresh corduroy. Thank you to our volunteer groomers!...
We have been working the Moose Meadow perimeter loop single track. Take a trip around. Still a little soft but a different perspective. Multi use fun. All other trails are getting worked over tonight. Saturday skiing should be great! Enjoy winter. pz...
We took the Snow Dog Groomer out to make a nice track all around the perimeter of the Moose Meadow. The groom is soft but should firm up with more use and successive grooms. Try out our new snow trail any way you travel- feet, skis, snowshoes or fat tire bikes and let us know how you like it! Total length is 3.5 KM. pz...
With new, dry snow the Girdwood trails got a fresh groom this morning. The 5K Nordic Loop was groomed and classic track was set. Upper Valley trails, Moose Meadow, connector trails and the Arlberg bike path were also groomed and classic track was set. There should be some fun skiing out there today....
Groomers got out today and got to all trails by dark tonight. Snow tonight may mean powder in the morning ! Ski it up ! pz...
Groomers will be out regularly now that we have cooler temps. We hope to tune the surface back up to good winter skiing and (walking on multi use. ) The cat trail has been groomed too by CPG so we have more winter trail choices than ever. Get out and enjoy the winter sun! pz...
Groomers spent some time out there today to get all of our trails back in peak condition. We did not cut any new tracks but many of the old ones are still there for you classic skiers. Get out and enjoy the snow!!pz...
Tracks from Thursday on the 5 K are still in and new snow rough groomed to a nice ski surface, upper meadow loop is also groomed in but soft. Despite 3 and a half inches of water yesterday our upper valley trails are back.pz...
Luke and Adam got out and tuned things up. Yesterdays snow turned into rain overnight so they report soft conditions. Thanks! Support your local ski club.pz...
Jeff got out yesterday afternoon and smoothed out the Upper Meadow Loop and the 5 K. Last night's slightly cooler temps should make for a fast morning ski! Beyond Crockets Bridge towards Moose Meadow, ski and Bike tracked trails are a little rougher and wet in places. As these trails freeze up groomers will be back to smooth them out. pz...
Real wet out there. @5" of water in 5 days makes the moose meadow a place where groomers fear to go. All other trails were groomed today but substantial water must drain before we get back to " Normal Winter Grooming. " Cooler temps and snow would be a nice start. pz...
Jeff and Sharon braved the rain and pressed on to groom all trails. They report their groom as looking good but very soft. Still some wet weather to follow. pz...
John went out this morning and groomed out as much as 6" of new snow. Over the past 2 days we have received MORE THAN 2 1/2 inches of water much of which was rain on our trail system. We will slowly work toward opening the whole system as wet spots indicate. Looks as if snow is tapering off this morning. Ski it up! pz...
The 5K Nordic Loop, Upper Meadows, Moose Meadow and the connector trails were smoothed out this morning. No new classic track was set, but the existing track is still usable - a few wiggles here and there, but they seem to be ok. Snow in the valley is, as you might imagine, pretty wet and soft. It still skis fine....
Bailey and Peter groomed up the whole park. No tracks made until we get more snow out there. A skiff of new snow freshened up all trails. A light groom did the trick. pz...
Jeff and Sharon went out for a onceover on all trails. They report it came out pretty nicely. Thanks! We are hoping for a bit of snow to freshen up the ski surface. pz...
Eben and Luke did a onceover on all trails Last night. Everything should be ready to go for the morning. Support your volunteer groomers by joining Girdwood Nordic @ skigirdwood.org pz...
Your groomers were out today working on Moose Meadow loop. Still some ice spots but definite improvement. Always ready for more snow! pz...
