Blackjack Cross Country Ski Club
Blackhawk Ski Club is home to over 2 kilometers of dedicated nordic ski trail (skate and classic) made with artificial snow base. Portions of the trail are adjacent to alpine slopes which makes for fantastic training ground. Other portions wind through wetland, along Black Earth Creek, and through a small stand of trees. When natural snow allows, our trail system expands to include a 2 mile serpentine loop through tall pine trees at the top of the alpine hills near the East Chalet. Our trails connect to the expansive trail system at Pleasant View Golf Course via a trail made possible by generous cooperation with our neighbor. Trails are open anytime, though we ask that members yield to young skiers during lessons and practices and to avoid those times in the early season as the trail is being snowed.
Preferred parking for nordic skiing is at the west end of the West Chalet parking lot where the ski trail begins and at the Ski Jump Chalet parking lot (at the bottom of the hill). Please use caution driving down the hill and only use a 4WD vehicle during icy conditions. Parking can also be found at the East Chalet. Please use caution making your way down the alpine runs and do not climb/descend hill 4 on the west side when it is open for alpine skiing.
Please visit our youth programs pages to learn about youth lessons, junior ski team, and middle and high school ski teams at Blackhawk!
