Fourmile Lake Road/McLoughlin Ski 11.27.10


These skiers are 1/4 of the two dozen skiers from the Grants Pass and Southern Oregon Nordic Clubs whose smiles are testament to the wonderful early snow conditions in the Southern Oregon Cascades.  Following a lunch stop at the Summit Shelter, the group divided into two crews: one returned on the Big Mac Trail as we had come up, the other crew headed north up the McLoughlin Trail for a loop of another couple of miles. Great fun for all.

Turkey Trot 11.24.10


Eight skiers from the Grants Pass and Southern Oregon Nordic Ski Clubs broke trail through 20 inches of fresh powder up the Fourmile Lake Road and Big Mac trail to the Summit Shelter. Cold temps, blue skies, a few snow flurries and great conversation made for a wonderful day on the snow. We didn't spot any turkeys, but saw elk and rabbit tracks galore.

Page Mountain 11.13.10

Seven GPNSC members did some needed trail maintenance on Page Mountain yesterday. Working for more than three hours, they got 'er done before some rain set in. The crew cleared brush on a link between two roads and put up some blue diamonds to mark the way to the top of the mount. Now, we are awaiting the first big snow.

Eight of ten skiers who enjoyed a brilliant Veteran's Day on the West Rim Drive at Crater lake. Five inches of new powder, abundant sunshine, and gorgeous views made for a relaxed, playful ski with plenty of time to chat and practice turns in the meadows.
