Trail updates

Today looks like another day of firm, fast conditions on the valley floor with warmer overnight temps in the Rendezvous thanks to an inversion. If you want to break out of the fog, climb up from Cub Creek or Gunn Ranch trailhead into the sunshine! The best skiing will be on areas groomed most recently including the main trailhead loops in Mazama, Thompson and Little Wolf at Sun Mtn., and the Rendezvous from Cub Creek TH.

The best classic tracks on the Winthrop trails are from the Fish Hatchery to Powers Plunge on the MCT. There are little or no classic tracks in Barnsley, Bitterbrush, and the Winthrop Trail until we get more snow. Classic tracks are in better shape in Mazama meadows.  Enjoy the skiing and thank you for your support!
