Trails are closed for biking. Once the frost goes out and the trails dry up, we will open for the dirt season. It’s been drying out nicely the past few weeks but there is still frost in much of the singletrack and ski trails, especially north facing. We look to have wintry weather end of this week but hopefulling mid April we can open the trails for dirt riding.
Mornings it is frozen, the trails will be rideable but usually a short window. We try to update on Trailbot if there are last minute opportunities but best to wait until the dirt season is officially on….stay tuned!

Trails are now closed for skiing and biking. Warm days has melted all but a few short segments of the remaining base on the trails. The warm weather has been good for pulling frost out of the ground. Once the frost is out we can open the trails again for hiking and biking. The mornings it has froze down this past week allowed us to get on trail and cut firewood for next season!
It was a great last five days of the season and awesome to see so many people out. Thanks to everyone that supports the trails at Maplelag….we appreciate it very much!! The trails will open again once the frost is out. Typically mid to late April.

Trails are now closed for skiing and fat biking. A warm end of week and weekend melted out the skiable snow and just an ice/crust base remains on 75% of the trail.
