AREA SUMMARY: SNOWKRAFT cross country skiing includes a nice mix of small, easy rollers and flatter terrain on the main loop, and an intermediate/advanced area of 2.5 miles, (with an ADVANCED ONLY section of 2 climbs and descents in the south corner of this) that has been designed to be soley climb and descent with some relatively long climbs for the area. With all trails relatively wide for skating, classic skiers may want to head to Whitefish Dunes, (my favorite-10 Miles from SNOWKRAFT) Peninsula Park (20 Miles), or relatively remote Newport Park (40 Miles), which may or may not be groomed. Note that for beginning classic skiers SNOWKRAFT is an excellent choice due to levelness of trails and grooming quality. SNOWKRAFT is open to the public but skis more like a private course due to the owners attention to grooming and relatively low number of skiers. With over 250 dump truck loads of dirt used to level the trails, skiing is posssible in 2 inches of wet snow. BEGINNERS: A great place to learn due to wide, level, immaculately groomed trails. A good selection of easy terrain. ADVANCED: New this year 2010-11 a totally redesigned orchard section with 1 more climb and 23% more trail than 2009-10.
