Summer Trail Conditions
Updated: Saturday August 8 @ 9:00am
TRAILS ARE OPEN
Mountain Bike
Trails received just under a 1/2 inch of rain with the storm last night which will firm up conditions beautifully across the trail system.
With temperatures in the mid-70's and hero dirt calling your name, what are you waiting for?
Saturday we will be hosting our Member and Volunteer Appreciation lunch. Expect the trails to be a little busier than normal as a result.
Reminder: It's never too late to join as a member. So if you swing by and sign up on Saturday you can enjoy free lunch and drinks from 11:30-2:00. How can you say no to that 🙂
NOW OPEN:
- Papoose Connector: This brand-new green trail, provides a smooth, flowing line from the Rear Hub, through Papoose Hub, all the way down to the Bottom Bracket.
- Happy Camper (Downhill Return): An all-levels, flowing downhill line that drops you right back at the campground.
- BaseCamp to Pop’s Lodge: A short, mountain-bike-specific trail connecting day-use visitors from the parking lot directly to Pop’s Lodge.
- BaseCamp Gravel Trail: This trail runs between our tent sites at the campground, connecting our two bathhouses. It will serve as the starting point for both Happy Camper and Gene Connector which are currently under construction.Â
IN THE WORKS:
- Gene Connector: Coming later this summer, this trail will connect riders from BaseCamp into Gene Machine, allowing for direct access to the Rear Hub.
- Happy Camper: This summer we will complete Happy Camper, along with a gravel trail through the campground, allowing for direct access on dedicated trails into the full trail system.
If you are staying at WinMan BaseCamp (yes, reservations are now open!), mountain bikers can use the road to easily access Papoose Hub and the entire trail system.
Hiking
All hiking trails are open as we enter peak summer season in the Northwoods. The bugs are backing off a little and the forest is incredible.Â
Reminder, we have dedicated hiking trails and do not allow hiking on the mountain bike trail system. Please refer to the main kiosk or grab a brochure from the Chalet to help you navigate your next adventure.
Live GPS Grooming from Nordic Pulse
All dates and times listed reflect when trail grooming was completed on that route. We ask that you wait at least 1 hour after grooming has finished to allow the trails to set-up properly.
