Mountain Bike Trail Report

Trails open. A mix of dry/tacky surface conditions. Nice week of riding in place.

Off and on rain showers the past few weeks has been keeping the dirt surface tacky and in good riding condition. Recent moisture also great for setting up the dirt work we are doing on the Hudson’s Hula segment on Twin Lakes singletrack and the recent dirt work on Bullhead Bootleg loop.

We have been busy on the trails clearing deadfall, brushing out overgrown areas, blowing out forest matter and major hand dirt work on the berms on Bullhead Bootleg, Hudson’s Hula and other areas on the main loop.

Bugs are out…keep the wheels moving! Not as bad when temps below 70 but we are nearing the end of the deer fly cycle.

Be aware for changing conditions and any falling forest matter such as sticks, branches etc. 

New maps are available at the parking lot kiosk. Click here for new map online. The main trail head is near the resort with other trails accessible from the driveway for the Twin Lakes and Sukkerwest loops, county road 110 and hiway 34 for the Bullhead Bootleg loop.

Twin Lakes has a “sport” option to bypass the first part that has more roots that leads to Hudson’s Hula loop which is rolling great the end of summer. Feeling Lucky, SukkerWest and the Citizen loop good starter trails/loops for first time riders to Maplelag.

We also have pink signs out for the LagChilada challenge which is one continuous ride of the entire trail system, about 25 miles.

Summer pass can be purchased here. The passes helps offset maintenance costs. The Maplelag trails are privately owned and operated and we receive no grants or assistance for operating.

By riding at Maplelag, assume all risk and responsibility for any changing conditions that may alter the riding surface.
