Trails open. 10km of recently groomed trail best option for riding this weekend. Conditions a bit soft but overall good riding conditions.
Grooming update: Saturday and Thursday afternoon we groomed the inner segments, SukkerWest and the bridge section on Twin Lakes. Combined with the Skaters Waltz access, there is around 10km of groomed riding options for the weekend.
Signs marking the route for the inner loops are in place and ultimately direct the course for the “FatLagChilada”. Twin lakes and SukkerWest singletrack can be accessed from the driveway. To access the start to access Bootleg, head to the start of Skaters Waltz to the right. We have groomed on the far right side of Suicide Hill for uphill travel. Access to Bootleg has been groomed on the lake. Use trails at own risk and assume all responsibility. Skaters Waltz is open for fat biking when conditions are firm. SukkerWest is recommended trail for beginner riders. Trail difficulty on outer loops is intermediate to advanced.
Trail passes help offset grooming and maintenance costs. Trails have already been groomed multiple times this year. Thank you.
