Spring Skiing is Still Alive and Well in Southeast Alaska

Southeast Alaska still has 225 cm (89 inches) of snow, and people are touring from the base. The local avalanche center is still posting forecasts, you won't spot a mountain bike anywhere in town, and ice still lines the hiking trails. While many mountain towns across North America have traded skis for bikes, people are still stacking ski days in Juneau, Alaska. Douglas Island remains dressed in white, and Eaglecrest Ski Area still has top-to-bottom snow for spring skiers to enjoy. These are the best days of the year to be in Juneau.
