Trail Reports & Maps

Grooming underway at Log Cabin!

DYEA/SKAGWAY TRAILS 

The warming trend over the past couple of weeks has made the trails crunchy, but you can still get out on the West Creek trails and out to the campground in Dyea.

LOG CABIN TRAILS (see maps below)

Trail crew work began last week and they were able to pack, groom and do an initials track-set on the 2K loops, the Father Mouchet, Caposey Cutoff-Power Line, and the Saldi. About 10K total. Our goal for the next six weeks will be to get the full Buckwheat course packed and groomed for the race on March 7 (a week early this year due to AWG in Whitehorse mid-month). Watch for more frequent trail reports!
