Some of the best ski trails in the metro area. Fantastic night skiing on their lighted trails! New in 2003, a 2.5K man-made snow loop.Trail Reports

Soft wet snow with nice early season glide. No hard patches. Wife said track was great. Thanks for fixing the doughnut lights.

The Elm Creek ski trail will be closing at 3pm on Friday, December 3rd so we can resume snowmaking. A reopening date will be determined as we are able to make snow.

Surprised how crunchy/icy the skate deck was with temps being above freezing for so long. Downhill on the donut was wicked fast and I found getting an edge challenging at times.

Skied at Elm around 5:30/6, and the snow was super fast! Only about 1k open (the donut), but it was still fun to get out and ski! There's more open here than at Theodore Wirth. Temp around the lower 40s felt very nice. Not crowded when I was there. Only man-made snow. Great place/time for my first ski of the season!

Kudos to the team at Elm Creek for get the skiing going! The doughnut to the ski school area was open with ample manufactured snow and a small amount of leaf and stick debris. You could probably use your good skis but there were a few sticks. Tracks and deck were hard and fast that made for challenging conditions - especially for the first time on skis this year.

Elm Creek will temporarily be opening approximately 1K of ski trail from Monday, November 29th thru the afternoon of Friday, December 3rd. We will be unable to make snow during this period based on the current forecast. The closure time could adjust based on weather conditions. We still have a lot of snow to be open long-term for the season and need to utilize opportunities as they arise. A reopening date has not been determined at this time. Chalet will be open from 9am - 7pm while the trails are open.
