❄️ More Snow = Great Grooming! ❄️

Thanks for your patience—Mother Nature delivered a few more inches late Thursday and again overnight, with flurries still flying! We’re sitting on about 10–12" in the woods and trail reports have been fantastic. 🌲✨

Our groomers were out last night and conditions are looking great across the system. The MN DNR has groomed the David Dill Arrowhead State Trail, and Voyageurs National Park trails are in good and improving shape—just stay alert for reroutes, bumps, refrozen slush, and changing conditions.  There is also active logging in our area - watch for equipment, keep right and go slow in these areas.

⚠️ Quick Trail Notes:

• Blue Trail from East Namakan Lake to Crane Lake is closed due to a pressure ridge. Park staff hope to cut that down and install the trail next week.
• Yellow Trail (Ash River to Kettle Falls) - Be alert to the open water and bridge to use at the Mica Bay Creek crossing.
• The Chain of Lakes Dashed Black Trail is open, staked but rough. More snow is needed to be able to groom. Ride slow and enjoy the scenery!
• Snowshoe & ski trails, sledding hill, and portions of ice roads are open (Kab entrance now at Gappa Landing)
