Trails are open. Great riding on rock solid base. Entire FatLagChilada groomed again Wednesday, smoothing and structuring the dusting of new snow from Tuesday. Very thin coating of snow falling on top Thursday, rider packed. Should be a really nice weekend of riding with good temps.
The entire FatLagChilada loop consists of Skaters Waltz starting to the right, the main singletrack loops Bullhead Bootleg, Twin Lakes and Sukkerwest. We also have groomed select segments in between to make the “FatLagChilada” loop. The above loops can be ridden separately. To access the inner loops, go to the start of Skaters Waltz and veer right. There are orange signs from that point and at key intersections where to turn to make the full loop. Please only ride on the designated areas for fat biking.
The Maplelag driveway is a good feeder to access Sukkerwest, Bjorps across from Sukkerwest which leads into North Star and crosses the road again to Twin Lakes.
With the hardpack conditions on the ski trails, the skate loops Skaters Waltz, the extension loops and North Loup are open for riding making for around 35km of groomed riding options.

Trails are open. A crisp evening with temps in the single digits but should warm up with sunshine making for a great day on the trails. Fantastic skiing conditions.
