Rain returns! Just over 2″ of precipitation overnight after we enjoyed a relatively 7-10 days of dry. Total rainfall for the month now 7.56″. The woods are very lush and green thanks to abundant moisture this spring and later part of this month. Many wildflowers, mushrooms, lichen etc. popping up each week. We have started mowing on the ski trails as we continually clear trees falling from the wind events this spring. We have also started doing dirt work on the ski trail, smoothing out rough areas and improving rough spots. We will continue this work all through the summer and fall.  

Total rainfall the month of June at 7.56″. It was also a very wet month of May with right around 8″ of rain. Since January 1st, we have received almost 18″ of rain.          

The rain has been welcomed with the relatively dry conditions the previous 6 months and to keep the soil damp and moist for the trees we planted this spring. The lake, ponds, sloughs and water tables are at normal levels now.     

 Mountain bike trails now open. (click here for updates)

Summer ski trail work will include fixing rutted areas, working on drainage and removing rocks and filling in low spots in between almost daily mowing when not raining.
