The mountain bike trails will be open until November 1st. We have been clearing leaves on select segments with plans to clear the entire course by the end of the week.
Surface conditions are hardpack and dry. A few leaves still to come down and might be some that blow in otherwise great late season riding.
Please park in far parking lot by the recycling containers.
Please note we have taken down course marking and many of the signs. Trail maps online and TrailForks.
Ride at own risk.
As the first accumulating snowfall blanketed Maplelag today, we are reminded of the beautiful change of seasons and how fortunate we are to experience this. Nature has always been a huge inspiration for us as we navigate through decisions in life.
We have had a few days to reflect on the recent events and want to say how grateful we are for the overwhelming outpouring of support, acts of kindness and most importantly, the prayers. We have certainly felt God’s presence. Again, we are grateful no one was hurt. The time with family these past few days has strengthened what truly is most important to us.

We want to say a special thanks to the “MLK Six Swedes” group for setting up the Go Fund Me account. We are deeply touched by all the donations and words cannot express our appreciation. We have decided to use a portion of the funds, when the time comes, to disperse among our employees who have lost their jobs and part of their livelihoods. We will also use the funds to host a dinner for all of the firefighters and emergency personnel that assisted during the disaster.
As we move forward, our social accounts and website will have the most accurate information on the next course of action. Many of you have reached out asking what you can do. At this point we simply ask for continued prayers.
Thank you again for all the love, support, acts of kindness and the prayers. We love you all.
On Monday October 10th a fire broke out in the main lodge at Maplelag resulting in a total loss of the lodge. Thankfully no one was hurt and we are all safe at Maplelag. We are at a loss for words and completely devastated. As a result of the fire, we are closed for lodging, meals and guest services until further notice. The trails remain open for skiing, fat biking etc.
Many of you have already reached out regarding the deposit. We are deeply touched for those reservations that have donated back the deposit. Thank you so very much. For those that wish to have a deposit returned, we will do that, as soon as we are able. The best way to reach us is through email at [email protected]
We want to thank all the fire departments that came and their valiant efforts to keep things in control to prevent further damage to the outlying cabins, as well as all the emergency personnel that assisted and monitored the situation days after.
We are touched by local acts of kindness, messages and heartfelt words and offers of financial support. Please keep us in your prayers as we move forward and follow the next steps for Maplelag. To allow the support teams to perform continued tasks and for our privacy and space, please do not enter Maplelag at this time. Thank you.
The mountain bike trails are closed for the season.
