Register for this weekend's Beacon Scramble fundraiser for the Coastal Alaska Avalanche Center. We have 15” of new snowfall this week! Yesterday was simply incredible, everywhere on the mountain. Today we’ll have flurries and clouds to start the early morning, gradually becoming sunny, light wind, high of 29°. The whole mountain is open, all chairlifts, East Bowl, West Bowl, & Steep Chutes. Tomorrow, Friday, will be another bluebird day, then more snow over the weekend. Chairlifts are running 9-3:30 PM. We’re open Wednesday through Sunday. Groomed trails are Muskeg, Dolly Varden, Stickleback, Sneaky, Sourdough, Lower Hilary’s, Easy Bowl, Williwaw, Otter Slide, Sluice Box, Grubstake, Cheechako, and Motherlode.

|---|---|
| On operating days, uphill access is restricted to three routes along the ski area boundary to access backcountry terrain, not Eaglecrest terrain. Please refer to the uphill route map and read the uphill policy. Eaglecrest reserves the right to suspend uphill access at any time for ski patrol and mountain operations. This includes operating and non-operating days and hours. 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. |
