Fish Creek Road is a State Highway. Alaska DOT plows the road each morning prior to opening and will return as needed throughout the day.  Eaglecrest is the highest road accessible point in Juneau. Be prepared for winter driving and use 4WD, AWD, studded tires, or chains whenever necessary.

April 9, 6:32 AM

Just like that the 22/23 ski season comes to a close. It’s time to shred the gnar one last time before winter officially ends. It just wouldn’t be right to send off this season with a bland day, so mother nature dropped 5” of that dense creamy snow up top last night! Current temperatures are 34 degrees at the base and 29 up top with a high of 38 today. A little bit windy at the summit with 25-30 mph gusts. Today will feature a rain/snow mix all-day long. Bring your fishing gloves, an extra weatherproof layer, and best getup for official closing day! All 4 lifts will spin 9 AM - 4 PM. We look forward to seeing your shining faces out on the best hill in all of Juneau today.

The Easter Bunny is paying Eaglecrest a visit today! Keep an eye out for our hippity hoppin' friend around 12PM noon. Word on the mountain is there are two magic eggs hidden on the hill that hold a youth and adult seasons pass! Happy Easter!

Thank you to every last one of our employees for your hard work making this season a success. The groomers, lift operators, and mechanics, have not faltered once this season and had us out on the corduroy or powder with all lifts spinning almost every day. Ski patrol has kept us safe and opened gates all winter with an awesome team despite a challenging snowpack. We thank you! Finally, our passholder experience would be bleak without our ticketing team, snowsports instructors, rental shop techs, and superb kitchen staff. Be sure to pay them all one more visit today! It takes a small but mighty village to operate Eaglecrest every day and it couldn’t be done without a great team!

Thank you for your continued support of our local mountain. It’s been a privilege to predict the day's conditions with you every morning all winter! After all, it’s not ‘goodbye’, just ‘ski you later’!


NORDIC (4.9): Final day of the season! Lots of new precip last night and yesterday, but fresh grooming this morning. The early bird will get the worm today as things will soften up quickly with new precip. The lower loop has been groomed for both classic and skate skiing. No dogs are allowed on the regular lower loop trails.

The upper loop has also been groomed for both classic and skate skiing. Trickster access is open!

Uphill skiers, snowboarders, and hikers are using the area at their own risk and assume all responsibility. Always read the Mountain Report or call the Snow Phone before visiting.
