It's wet in Girdwood and we thank everyone for celebrating a rainy icy Solstice with us on Dec 21! Thank you to all our volunteers, participants, and The Bake Shop for bringing the hot cocoa, hot soup, and cheer! The lights were colorful and bright - our leadership inspiration was evident! Making the most of the warm temperatures at the 5K #girdwoodnordic #bethelight #slipslidingaway  ...

Put on ice cleats, and join us for a Solstice Walk in the Woods!! TONIGHT from 6-8pm. Wear rain gear and ice grippers. Food and drinks by the Bake Shop. Music, lights, and a chance to meet Olympian Kristen Faulkner! See you there!...

It snowed in Girdwood! A couple inches fell last evening in the valley. However, the base of the access to the 5k and the Nordic loop is packed, glazed ice. Please use extreme caution if attempting the trail and continue to do snow dances! We are wishing for more white as well....

The 5K Loop is not skiable at the moment. Skatable maybe…but not skiable. Please do ALL the snow dances! ...

11/27 Report: Luke groomed the 5K Loop and Arlberg sidewalk. Have a great ski before or after Thanksgiving dinner. Gobble gobble!! #girdwoodnordic #girdwoodtrails...

11/20 Report: Jim just groomed 5K Loop and Arlberg sidewalk and it’s nice and smooth. Classic tracks still great. Check it out! #girdwoodnordic #girdwoodtrails ...

It’s snowing!! Jim scraped the 5K. It came out crusty but skiable. Please mind winter use of the 5K: Ski ONLY and NO DOGS....

And it's Nov 1st! Luke groomed the 5K Loop and Arlberg sidewalk. Go have yourself a little cross-country shakedown!! The meadows need another foot of snow before we can groom…so touring skis or snowshoes only - meadows are not frozen. SEE YOU TOMORROW at the Sports Swap. You can renew your membership tomorrow or online: #girdwoodtrails #girdwoodnordic #hoorayforsnow...
