Trails open. Daily grooming this week making for good riding. Deck has set up nicely thanks to cold night last night. A few soft spots here and there but overall good riding conditions. Stay in the middle on the trail….snow is deep on the sides!!
Grooming update: Total groomed riding options around 20km. The loop is the “InnerWest” loop which is starting out on Skaters Waltz and following “Fat Bike” signs all the way to Twin Lakes. There are options to make different loops using the driveway based on riding ability. Any questions ask or text 218-849-7669.
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.
