What a September it has been! Cool mornings and warm days with abundant sunshine. The fall colors around Maplelag really starting to emerge with many trees hitting their peak. Still plenty of color to come the next few weeks and a great time of the year to stay at Maplelag and be in the woods. Off and on rain over the weekend measuring just over a half inch. Before the rain, it had been a very dry 6 weeks with less than a half inch total precipitation. Total rainfall this month right at 1″. The recent rain giving the forest a refresh and greening.
Conditions have been good for working in the woods as we begin the big push of Fall grooming and clearing deadfall, branches, sticks etc. in between the big projects at the resort. The leaves are starting to change more and more each day providing beautiful Autumn scenery. We typically see our peak of fall color around the third week of September.
It has been a busy summer clearing fallen trees off the trails after strong winds over 80mph brought down 100’s of tree on the Maplelag property during the “Solstice Storm”. We have cleared nearly 300 trees on the trails so far. We were able to get the 25 mile “LagChilada” mountain bike course open a week after the storm. We are extremely grateful for the professional crew that helped us out. Thank you!
The mountain bike trails are open, click here for report.
