Ski Trail Report

Trails are now closed. We logged a final ski on April 1st (no fooling!) after a fun Easter week and weekend of skiing on a late season snow storm before warm temps deteriorated the snow to a point the trails are now closed for the season. It was great seeing a handful of folks out to enjoy the late season treat of snow. It will be at least a few weeks, even with warmer temps forecasted, until we can open again for mountain biking. (click here for updates)

Although this year was one of the lowest snow years to date on record, it was an opportunity to learn more about grooming, preparing the trails for winter and being prepared for future low snow years. For as long as we have been grooming, every year is different and what makes it interesting and enjoyable! 

Thank you to everyone that has visited us this past year from the overnight guests to the day users. We appreciate it very much! 

We will continue to update daily as we enjoy sharing what is happening on the trails, weather and nature. 

On a side note, the end of February and early March with low snow and frozen ground it has been favorable for cutting deadfall and windblown trees from storms and wind. Most of the woods we use for the wood fire stoves and campfires at Maplelag but bigger logs that have are not rotten we use for shelving, tables and other projects!
