Winter is finally here and NorthWoods is ready to take full advantage of the falling snow. Our staff and volunteers have been busy preparing our trails for the winter ski season – removing brush and blowdowns, repairing bridges, adding new signs and markers and updating our map.
NorthWoods’ trail system officially opened for the 2008 season on January 5. The Ski Center will be staffed Monday- Friday from 8am-4:30pm and Saturday-Sunday from 10am- 4pm. Our trail system will feature groomed loops on the Echo Lake, Leadership and Olympic/Lower Clyde Trails and ‘backcountry’ skiing (less frequently groomed) on several other trails. Snowshoers will enjoy trekking on the Gardner Path and Lang Brook Trails- paths that offer a slower, quieter setting.
Our Ski Center offers ski and snowshoe rentals for $5/day, updated grooming information, complimentary maps, our ‘Trail of the Day’ recommendations, and a warm fire and hot drinks to comfort you when you come inside. Trail use is FREE at NorthWoods, however a $5/day suggested donation is always appreciated and helps us maintain our trails for you.
Enjoy the Snow!!
