Crust Cruising

March 10, 2014 Jay Richards

Some of the best skiing of the year is off the beaten path with “crust skiing”. With multiple melt/freeze cycles and a good base of snow, skiing can be possible anywhere with the right timing! Just ski! We are closed for the season! Thanks to everyone who came to Maplelag this past year making it a great season! Trail status on the trail report page.
