CROSS COUNTRY SKIING & SNOWSHOEING – Ranger Rick is reporting 18 – 36” base on his groomed trails. He laid track on the entire system on Wednesday and Thursday. He advises warm daytime temps and below zero nighttime temps could create slow conditions in the afternoon and fast/icy in the morning. Otherwise, the trails are fully covered and in great shape.
Join park naturalist Bob Wild, this Saturday from 6:30 pm – 9 pm eastern time, for lantern-light skiing on the Superior Loop trail. Both Skiers and Snowshoers are welcome! He will have the bonfire going and the hot drinks waiting! It’s FREE and FUN!
