Eaglecrest Ski Area

I've been waiting a long time to visit here and our trip did not disappoint. This ski area is absolutely fantastic with breathtaking views and numerous wide open runs. It's definitely not for beginners (although they do have a terrific beginner area) with lots of steep drops and fast terrain. Our favorite lift was Ptarmagin of course which drops you into a magical bowl of skiing bliss. If you visit Juneau in the winter and are even a casual skier you absolutely must visit here! It will be the highlight of your trip!

I love this local ski hill, great family fun in the winter lodge is great for warming and eating after riding. Close to town

Old school feel, incredibly friendly and helpful staff. Lots of accessable terrain. The proposed gondola will be a huge improvement to the dual chairs, but I bet it looses some of its "local mountain" charm.

Beautiful view! Easy enough to hike up gravel road before its covered in snow. Our family went for the first time recently and even our 8 yr old made it to the top without any issues. Be prepared with water, chapstick, gloves, walking sticks or ski poles, dress in warm layers, binoculars and an empty bladder. Lol.

February 2020/2021. What a delight this place is. Truly spectacular. If you're lucky enough to catch this place on a bluebird, you'll be able to see as far as the eye can see. East Bowl and West bowl are where the best runs are at. However, if you come on a powder day, you'll be sure to enjoy every run on the mountain. I've been snowboarding a lot of places in North America, and maybe 1 or 2 are as unique as this place (Canadian Rockies). Here, the runs are shorter but the pow is so much deeper. Can't wait to be back this winter when I'm visiting family.
