Dry and seasonable weather this week has made for great conditions to be in the woods for trail work. We are on a big push this week to clear the final trees from the solstice storm back in June, working on the outer trails and fine tuning the inner trails with the mower. Big thanks to members of the Moorhead Nordic ski team helping clear trail last Saturday and the folks helping us out this week. We are up to 500 trees cleared since June 21st!
September a very dry month overall, with total rainfall right at 1″. October precipitation around 1″.
Support the trails! Day and season pass purchases help us offset costs to maintain the trails. Thanks everyone for the support.
