With nearly 64km of ski trails, no major ski trail development is in the works but we continue to fine tune the current trail system. This Fall, Bob, who has built many of the trails at Maplelag, came for a few days to clear out some stumps, haul some boulders and change part of the trail on Sukkerbusk. The new change on Sukkerbusk will make for better grooming and ultimately better skiing in two key intersections. Photos from the trail work.

Trail Report
Hard to believe we are nearing the end of October. A gorgeous start to the week with bluebird skies, light winds and chilly temps. A solid frost last night with all areas around Maplelag white this morning. Quite a few of the remaining leaves coming down over the weekend with just a few oaks and poplar trees still hanging on to some leaves. The tamarac trees are in their peak and are beautiful standing out in swamps and sloughs. Bob here early this week to do some touch up on the ski trails and fall grooming planned for Roy’s Run and Bullhead lake trails this week as well.
