Slightly warmer today with a breeze from the west. It has been a great week so far for trail work as we continue to clear the trails for the upcoming winter season.
Many trees have hit their peak of Fall color. Beautiful autumn scenes in place. Incredible Northern Lights recently we were fortunate to catch over Island lake on the Maplelag property. Big time wind last Saturday bringing down a few dead trees and lots of branches and twigs we have been clearing on the entire trail system. Dry conditions prevail with no significant moisture the past 5 weeks.
