Name of XC Area: Cabin Creek Sno-Park Times that I have skied there: Several times I last skied there in: Jan, 2005 Trails that I skied: Viking Loop My favorite trails: Viking Trail marking: Very good Trail grooming: Very good Rating: 4 stars What I liked: Cabin Creek is a great standby site in the Snoqualmie area. We skied last Sunday, Jan. 16, 2005. Considering the still light snow at the pass, the skiing was excellent, with plenty of snow, and good conditions at below freezing temps. How it's faring with the recent warming I'm unsure. But it was nice to get out in a slow starting season!

Name of XC Area: Cabin Creek Sno-Park Times that I have skied there: Several times I last skied there in: Jan, 2004 Trails that I skied: Viking loop and others My favorite trails: same Trail marking: Very good Trail grooming: Very good Rating: 4 stars What I liked: Cabin Creek remains a favorite of mine. It's a very good example of well-groomed intermediate rolling terrain, with some black diamond for those who want them, and the wide flat roadway for any beginners in the party. It's my favorite of the snopark areas, and very accessible from Seattle/Tacoma What I disliked: nothing Comments: Nearby, of course, is Summit Nordic; my highest rated area. Cabin Creek is a very good alternate when those in the party don't want to ride the lifts at Summit Nordic and come down the runs off the mountain. Submitted by: Ed Winskill from: Tacoma, Wa.
