Dec 6th:
Cross-Country Skiing
With recent freeze / thaw conditions and an already thin base, ski conditions are marginal with many hazards present. Ribbon Creek parking remains closed due to prescribed fire work in the area.
Snowshoeing and Fat Biking
Trails have a very thin snowpack and are not ideal for these activities until more snow accumulates.
Winter Hiking
Trails will be covered in snow, increasing in depth with elevation. Icy sections may exist under the fresh snow.
At anytime come prepared for a variety of conditions, that can change throughout the day. Note that days are now growing shorter.
Be aware of closures in the area and check advisories before you go.
Please do not walk on groomed ski trails.
