Trail Detail
Notes
Mcnaughton Lake Trail follows old logging roads around three lakes and has very few steep hills. It is very scenic and an excellent trail for a beginner. A five and a half mile loop is groomed for skating. There is a shelter with a fire ring on the trail.Trail Reports

Another 4 inches of snow has fell since I was last here, improving the ground cover greatly. I broke trail on skating trail to shelter and came back on classical trail. Even under the pines coverage was good and I hit no rocks. I believe the State will not groom trails until after deer hunting. Very skiable trails with great kick and glide. Temp was 22 degrees. I saw no hunters and heard no shots.

Fair early season conditions. No grooming or skied in tracks. Lots of footprints, more on classical side, so I broke trail on skating trail to shelter. The usual wet areas were frozen, few rocks, and leaves and pine needles. Surprising a good glide with more snow depth on these trails. I skied back on classical trails and they were very skiable too. Tomorrow starts deer hunting so wear orange if skiing.
