Backcountry Nordic Skiing – Peru Creek

This is a popular, relatively easy ski up a gentle road, with good views of the surrounding mountains. We will ski as far as nearby Pennsylvania Mine before turning around. How far up valley we go will depend on snow conditions, and how much we need to break trail. The route does cross some avalanche runouts, which we'll need to check.

Participants should be able to ski at least 7 miles in cold weather.

This is a CMC Bobcats trip.  The Bobcats’ mission is to ensure a variety of challenging CMC trips, mostly on weekdays, all year long, for our mostly 50+ constituents. We don’t have dues or elections and we invite ALL CMC members to sign up for any Bobcat trip. The Bobcats send out a monthly email to our members with all the coming month’s trips, 

We will meet at Wooly Mammoth Park and Ride, section BB, across from the Exxon gas station, at 7:00 am so we can form carpools for the drive to the trailhead and have a PROMPT departure of 7:15am.  Here’s a Google Maps link to Wooly Mammoth: Wooly Mammoth Park-N-Ride · 18560 US-40, Golden, CO 80401
