Eaglecrest is the best ski area ever! says K.C. Kent.

Eaglecrest has the largest drop from top to bottom for 952 miles. The 3 ski lifts here are in great condition. Eaglecrest has an acceptable set of ski slopes and a somewhat modest amount of ski lifts. This ski area has an average share of challenging slopes and an average percentage of intermediate or beginner ski slopes. This ski hill has a drop of 1,400 feet; Eaglecrest makes great use of it all. The charming panorama of the Alaska highlands and all the good

    slopes are in themselves incentive enough to come here to ski. Eaglecrest boasts greater snowfall than the local average every ski season. Whether you're skiing or snowboarding, there are not many other perfect places for that close at hand. Eaglecrest is a smaller
size than average ski area having a roughly average drop if compared to other west coast ski resorts. Having 640 acres of skiing territory being without skiable territory won’t happen. The snowboarding and the skiing in this part of the country is lots of fun during the season. There are 31 ski runs to pick from; there's a good selection to suit everyone. The fantastic 29 feet of annual snowfall is sufficient for exceptionally good depth. Hotels are at your disposal right next door to the bottom area, but do reserve

a room before you go since it is a very popular destination. Please refer to the ski trail map of Eaglecrest on this web page for information. In wintertime the Alaska peaks are something you can’t pass up if you're interested in snowboarding or skiing. Getting your skiing muscles activated and getting out of the house for a while have skiers coming here. This ski mountain has a good variety of ski runs; it's completely out of the question to get bored here.
