TRAIL NOTES

This small and scenic, double-loop trail system runs through a hardwood forest with several stands of pines and spruce. A few small openings are located along the trails. Skiers will find long winding flats making this a great place for novices, just be aware that there are a couple of small, gentle hills to navigate. Both loops are groomed for classic and skate.

Grooming is timely and generally very good, often dependant on conditions, especially for classic. There are no shelters on the trail.
