Fat Bike Trail Report

Trails open. Good to very good conditions. Dusting of snow overnight on top of the firm base. Still a few areas the deck is rutted but overall really nice riding.

Note: Fat bikes only please on the trail. No mountain bikes and e-bikes not allowed to preserve the integrity of the trail. Be sure to run pressure in the 6-8 psi range.

Grooming update: Today we will continue touching up select segments and working on Bootleg, extending the loop. Saturday afternoon we groomed the Twin Lakes singletrack. Friday afternoon we touched up Twin Lakes and select inner segments. Thursday we groomed the Bullhead Bootleg segment of trail that is open. Wednesday we groomed out the Twin Lakes loop. Monday when the snow was damp we packed the InnerWest loop to compress the deck.

The 18km”InnerWest” loop starts out on Skaters Waltz and follows the “Fat Bike” signs all the way to Twin Lakes. There are options to make different loops using the driveway based on riding ability. Any questions ask or text 218-849-7669.

Signs marking the route for the inner loops are in place and ultimately direct the course for the “FatLagChilada”. Twin lakes and SukkerWest singletrack can be accessed from the driveway. To access the start to access Bootleg, head to the start of Skaters Waltz to the right. We have groomed on the far right side of Suicide Hill for uphill travel. Access to Bootleg has been groomed on the lake. Use trails at own risk and assume all responsibility. Skaters Waltz is open for fat biking when conditions are firm. SukkerWest is recommended trail for beginner riders. Trail difficulty on outer loops is intermediate to advanced.
