Fresh/Loose SnowWell judging by the fact I had to shovel today, I think winter has returned. And if the forecasts are correct the winter temps are returning with a vengeance later next week. Yikes!
For now it looks like we might have freshies every day for the next few days! Get out and enjoy it!
Hey, your friendly trail builder here! I need your help. Before you head out to ride, make sure that you have two things. Your DCP trail pass and check that your IMBA/CORP membership is current.
That’s how all this new trail happens, you're welcome!

Please be respectful of the private property at the top of the hill and stay on trail. We will start to see hunters on the neighboring property now that it is fall.
We are now up to 4 miles of single track! For some additional mileage park in the lot at Main St and Lagoon St and follow the Zander Park Boardwalk to the MTB trailhead.

Packed SnowExceptional rider packed conditions! With daytime temps not getting above freezing all week it should remain great for a while!
Use good judgment as the temps rise and don't ride if you're leaving a rut.
The CXC property north of the trails is currently closed to biking. Much of it is still private property with easements for skiing access, and respecting the wishes and rights of the landowner is vital to one day hopefully having access. Please stay on the established mountain bike trails on the Middleton Bike Park property.

Freeze/ThawRide when frozen.
Use good judgment as the temps rise and don't ride if you're leaving a rut.
Reminder: the main trail is the easy route and marked with green signs. The blue sections require a little more skill. If you are unsure, walk them first and then give them a try.
