CROSS COUNTRY SKIING
Cross country skiers are invited to kick and glice on the flat, herringbone up the hills,
and schuss down the other side on groomed trails in Eagan parks. The beginner, novice
(ore experienced skiing enthusiast will be challenged on Eagan's trails.
NORTHVIEW PARK
A beginner trail will loop around the pond, behind the tennis courts and back to the
point of departure. The groomed trail will take advantage of gentle slopes and flat
surfaces. The skier will experience warmth from the shelter of the woods and the brisk
air of open space. The park is located on Northveiw Park Road, east of Lexington
Avenue, I /2 mile north of Diffley Road.
THOMAS LAKE PARK
Groomed trails will provide cross - country skiers with the opportunity to ski the half
mile Native Prairie loop which traverses gentle slopes, flat stretches, and the openness
of the prairie,
A second alternative is to ski the scenic, wooded lakeside trail, which is more rugged,
yet skiable, even for the beginner. A circle route is formed by kicking and gliding
north along the trail adjacent to Thomas Lake Road then heading east on the Highline
Trail back to the park.
PATRICK EAGAN PARK
Two miles of trail over variable terrain await the cross country skiier. The trail begins
with a steep down slope, after that the skiier will find scenic flats and rolling hills. At
0 several points on the trail you will experience being "in the woods ". This trail
provides a good workout!
The park is located west of Lexington Avenue, I /2 mile north of Diffley Road. The
trail head is readily accessible from the parking area.
ELACKNAWK PARK
Blackhawk Park offers a family atmosphere for cross country skiing. Access to
groomed trails can be made from the parking lot off Murph Parkway. The pavilion
warming shelter will be open on weekend afternoons.
Two miles of looped trails meander over variable terrain. You may elect to follow the
trail around the east end of the lake, across the narrow bridge, and short cut directly
back to your starting point. Or you may take the long way back, herringboning up
hill toward Riverton Avenue. This trail provides an excellent workout and some
breathtaking views.
Ample parking is available in the Thomas Lake Park parking lot, which is located on
the west side of Pilot Knob Road, 3/4 mile south of Diffley Road.

Holiday Gitt Certificates
for
Cascade Bay Season Passes
and daily admissions
will be available atter
December 1, 1999.
What a great holiday gift
idea!
"The heavyweight champ of cool" is how the St. Paul Pioneer Press
described Cascade Bay on July 1, 1999. They continued that "you have to
see it to believe it."
Press like this and coverage by every television station in the metro area
gave Cascade Bay quite a "boost" its innaugural season. Over 160,000
people entered the gates of Cascade Bay and enjoyed the sand, sun and
splash. Season pass holders were a big percentage of the attendance which
meant that Eagan residents were certainly enjoying their new water
playground.
M Plans are currently underway to prepare for the 2000 season. Residents
o had a season pass in 1999 should be looking for a letter some time in
November with information on how to renew their pass.
Don't miss out on all that
Cascade Bay 2000
will have to offer!
