Trumpeter Swans on Bullhead Lake

Trumpeter swans on the edge of Bullhead lake.

Bullhead Lake has been home to groups of trumpeter swans throughout the Summer and Fall with as many as 20 swans on the lake at one time. The trumpeter swan was introduced in the Tamarac Wildlife Refuge (6 miles east of Maplelag) in 1987 and has been a major success story, considering only 70 swans existed worldwide in 1932, with a healthy population in this area.  Swans often land on Little Sugarbush, the lake Maplelag is next to, and are a treat to watch and listen to.

New Mountain Bike Singletrack

This Fall we have been working on new mountain bike singletrack on the terrain the western trails are located. We have completed close to one mile and the plan is to make a 4-5 mile loop. This new singletrack will be another option for riding at Maplelag.  We do not plan on using this in the existing course for the Laddies Loppet weekend but in the future plan on having a point to point race and this new singletrack will be part of the course for the point to point race.
