Trail Update…again
January 22nd, 2021 by Johnny in EverythingTrail Update
January 21st, 2021 by Johnny in EverythingTrail Condition Update. Jan 21st. Two of us tag-teamed today and completely groomed the entire network. 35+km’s of trails groomed. Both Adventure Trails (AT 1 &2) are done and now that it’s freshly groomed they should be a bit easier to follow. They both start the same then split after 1-2km’s. AT1 is now on Trailforks as Adventure Trail 1 and AT2 should be up soon. Tomorrow should be epic. Thank you for everyone for holding off today…
Trail Update Jan 20th
January 20th, 2021 by Johnny in EverythingWe got a some fresh snow the other day so the groomer crew is going to head out tomorrow for a long tag-team session to get everything (single track and AT 1 & 2) groomed. There is more snow on the way so we thought it best to pack this in. It will be above zero tomorrow so if everyone could refrain from riding tomorrow that would be beneficial. Cold overnight so that will set the trail in for sure. Riding tomorrow on the fresh grooming while it above zero will just undermine the work put in by the groomer team. Friday on the trails will be awesome!
We have been seeing more skinnies and plus bikes out trying to ride the trails. Going out now that we have fresh snow is likely not a good idea as you will just leave your mark behind and create way more work for those of us who spend all day grooming.
See you out there!
Trail Condition Update
January 17th, 2021 by Johnny in EverythingWe got out on the trails yesterday. They are definitely icing up in a lot of places. A light dusting of snow last night which is just likely enough to hide the ice. If you are not running studded tires be a bit carful out there as the ice may creep up on you. Adventure Trail 1 & 2 are in good shape as well.
Snow this upcoming week (hopefully) so the groomer crew will be back at it.
Kens’s & Steve’s are also well “bike groomed”.
Trail Update
January 3rd, 2021 by Johnny in EverythingTrails are in the best shape so far this year. Doug from the groomer crew got out and did a 4 & 1/2 hour tour early Saturday morning which set things up for a most perfect weekend of Fat Biking! Some more fresh snow today which should pack in well on the great base we have. I re-groomed the Adventure trail 1 (AT1) and AT2 today. AT1 is likely good to go, AT2 will likely still need another pass to pack down. So head out and explore! The AT trails will always lead you back to somewhere you know.
Something to ponder…

DCF Main Tract parking
December 29th, 2020 by Johnny in EverythingHi everyone. It’s been noticed that most people are parking in the Main Parking lot. For several reasons it would be a good idea to disperse when you are parking. The “south parking” area remains open to help provide places to park to spread out. I would encourage everyone to park in the south area if possible if there are already several cars in the Main lot. Let’s all keep safe while enjoying the isolation of the Forest. Take care, enjoy and thanks.
For the “south parking” turn right (south) on the roadway as soon as you pull off Airport Rd. Follow it past the gate and there are lots of parking options. The trails start and finish right in the field.
