Bike Trails are open this morning. Thin coating of snow making for good fat bike riding. Snow looks to remain a day or so with cooler weather in place. With the new snow, be prepared for variable conditions as it slowly melts off in the afternoon and freezes again overnight. The trails will be open for riding Saturday and Sunday mornings this week before noon. Best to get out early if possible.

Trails covered with a thin coating of snow after snowfall Wednesday evening. Will be slow to melt off with cooler temps in place. Not quite enough to groom but nice to have the white to brighten up the landscape.
The Fat Bike trail remains open in the mornings provided it freezes hard at night to be able to ride on frozen ground. The frost is still set in so when it warms up, it gets very muddy. Latest update on the Fat Bike Trail Report.
Although this year was one of the lowest snow years to date on record, it was an opportunity to learn more about grooming, preparing the trails for winter and being prepared for future low snow years. For as long as we have been grooming, every year is different and what makes it interesting and enjoyable!
Thank you to everyone that has visited us this past year from the overnight guests to the day users. We appreciate it very much!
We will continue to update daily as we enjoy sharing what is happening on the trails, weather and nature.
On a side note, this winter with low snow and frozen ground has been favorable for cutting deadfall and windblown trees from storms and wind. Most of the woods we use for the wood fire stoves and campfires at Maplelag but bigger logs that have are not rotten we use for shelving, tables and other projects!

Waking up to a dusting of snow with a few inches brightening the landscape. With warmer weather forecasted we will not plan any grooming but great to see the white covering!
