When ? Saturday, February 24th 2024 at the trailhead. Meet at 7:30pm and be on the trails at 8:00 pm. Hopefully we’ll have more snow by then and the weather will cooperate. More details here soon.

From reports it sounds like we had a good crowd out skiing Saturday. Great to see everyone outside at Silver Crest. Thanks to Jake for grooming Friday ! We re-groomed Sunday evening mostly the skate lane and left the existing classic tracks which are still in good shape. No new snow…

We have 17 inches of snow on the ground at Silver Crest Trails. The KHGA Pisten Bully went through Thursday evening and did a great job of leveling things out. Thanks Mike ! SCTA has been grooming since then with 4 or 5 inches new snowfall recently. We set tracks…

We are planning on grooming Wednesday. Hopefully we can get most of it packed and some classic tracks set. 2 to 4 inches are predicted Wednesday daytime with 3-5 inches more at night. Thursday will be cold with -1 F as a high temp for the day. Friday will be…

The trails got a good snow fall today with about 5 inches of new snow since yesterday. We took the roller out and reset classic tracks over the entire system. Skiing conditions are much improved but still uneven with troughs and crests at various locations. Rocks are still exposed at…

We did get out today to roller pack and set classic tracks for the first time at Silver Crest Trails. There is a hard base and 5-6 inches of powder. We got most of the trail system done with the exception of 89er, Gold Run and the cutoff from Mt…
