Trail Detail
Notes
This trail is very hilly, rolling and scenic. It winds around five different lakes, through stands of maple, aspen and balsam. There are a couple fairly steep hills requiring intermediate skiing skills. A shelter with a fire ring is located on the trail.Trail Reports

Drifting from last storm has caused difficulty grooming. The green loop around Pallette Lake is tracked and in very good shape. The yellow and red loop around Escanaba Lake is packed and leveled only. Clearing trail of drifts will continue and tracking of all loops as soon as possible is the goal. Drifts along Pallette and Lost Canoe lakes were formidable and after two days of clearing was able to get though with snowmobile and leveler.

13 inches additional snow in last two storms ending Sunday morning. High winds Sunday (yesterday) brought limbs down and power outages in the area. Today will be addressing drifts, branches down and packing the trail surface. I will update report when tracks are ready. The trail is open for skiing but there will be no tracks until the next update.

Snowing heavy today with 10-12 inches on the ground and still snowing. I leveled twice then tracked green loop around Pallette only and leveled and packed the rest. We plan to groom after the forecast snow tomorrow unless other priorities come up. Road in to trail not plowed as of 2:30 today so only 4wd with good clearance should attempt. Boulder Junction will need time to clean up town roads. Conditions on green loop good but tracks covering over fast, but good enough to ski.
