A beautiful weekend with brilliant sunshine and tranquil conditions for mid November. The trails remain closed and will reopen Thanksgiving week, weather permitting. We continue to have cold nights, cooling down the ground, setting frost and ice on the ponds, sloughs and some of the smaller lakes. This is a great start and won’t be long until we are skiing……Think Snow!!
We will continue working on the trails when we can, weather permitting, preparing for the winter season. Overall the trails are looking great and in good shape for winter. We have cleared over 600 trees since the Solstice 2025 storm. Big thanks to everyone that has helped!
A relatively dry fall. Total precipitation in November at .13″ and a trace of snow. October precipitation at 2.7″ and around 1″ in September. Total precipitation ytd at Maplelag is at 25.12″.
Support the trails! Day and season pass purchases help us offset costs to maintain the trails. Thanks everyone for the support.
