Lower Trail System
The Hogg Meadow Trail and Loop
A gentle, rolling trail that is about 2.3K round trip when combined with Hogg Meadow Loop and is excellent for the beginner. Looping through a forest of hemlock and fir, the cross country trail leads back to Hoodoo Ski Area.
Hayrick Glade
Hayrick Glade is for the intermediate cross country skier. It is 1.16K and features easy, rolling trails bordering the Big Lake/Hoodoo access road.
Black Jack Loop
A small diversion accessed from the Hogg Meadow Trail. This intermediate nordic ski trail is only .55K long.
Sheep Springs Loop
Our advanced cross country skiing loop featuring 1.8K of both an exciting downhill run and a challenging uphill climb.
UPPer Trail System
Open on weekends and holidays (weather permitting) from 9 am until 4 pm. Skyline Trail is not open during stormy conditions.
Skyline Trail
Access is gained via the Manzanita Chair, exit by downhill runs only. This advanced 8.8k cross country skiing trail is our most challenging trail system. The views are breathtaking, but the cross country skiing is not for beginners! You must be able to ski gentle downhill runs to exit skyline trails.
