Beautiful September weather in place. Recent rainfall has really brought the forest to life and signs of fall are appearing more and more each day. More trees are starting to change color providing beautiful autumn scenes. Lot of wild mushrooms and fungi appearing on the forest floor adding even more vibrance to the forest floor.
We are focused on having the ski trails in tip top shape going into the winter. We will be on the trails daily, weather permitting, with final mowing and clearing leaves etc. throughout the fall right up until the frost sets in and snow flies.
A great Laddies Loppet weekend. Thanks everyone that came!
The mountain bike trails are open for riding. We will continue maintaining the trails, and will be open, weather permitting, until November 1st. The Maplelag trails are closed to horse travel and motorized vehicles.
