A beautiful start to the week with sunny skies, light winds and temps in the teens. The trees frosted lightly this morning making for nice conditions outside. Families staying at Maplelag this week enjoying a little skiing on the trails despite the thin snow cover. Breck Nordic ski team having fun on the lake with ski games and ice skating rink seeing lots of action. We are keeping our eye on a potential Christmas storm!! It won’t take much new snow to resume grooming and greatly improve the ski conditions.
One inch of new snow early this morning. Every little bit helps but need a few more inches to resume grooming. Thin coverage on the trails and we need 3-4″ of good snow to “open” the trails. The Breck and St Paul Highland Park ski teams are at Maplelag this weekend for a ski camp. Most of the skiing taking place on the lake with a few skiers checking out the trails. Temps are pleasant and no wind on the lake making for nice skiing on the lake.
Featuring TJ the DJ. TJ mixes up the show with a variety of fun games and dances and will play everyones favorites. With our great sound and lighting system and our new dance floor we have some great party times. And it wouldn’t be Saturday night without Grandpa Jim’s specialty of lots of buttered, old fashioned popcorn(which by the way, we only use white popcorn). There is never a blue cloud at Maplelag because of our Day 1 policy of being smoke free in the lodge. You are more than welcome to bring your own spirits.
