Larose Forest trail reports
Today’s trails hard and fast, still textured enough to be good footing for the dogs. There was a truck on various trails, but mostly no significant damage done. JGL south entrance has a bit rougher truck tracks; though passable for sleds, not good for skis. Those that went early had…
The parking this morning was somewhat icy, but not a skating rink. The western trails were mushy in spots, especially on 1st, but not as bad as expected considering the weather we have had. JGL, End Loop, Malamute Loop and Conc 11 were in pretty good shape. Very pretty in…
Thanks to an awesome trail crew volunteers we were able to repair the (truck) damage on Moose in less than 2 hours. And we had a bit if fun doing it too! Moose remains closed until we get enough snow to groom over the repaired trail Seb

All the trails off the 11th are groomed including the deep ravine. Conditions are good! I would go out tonight if i were you!! – Nick
There is not quite enough snow to groom yet. For those of you who feel daring and want to use the trails as is, we recommend staying on the western trails. Expect possible driving traffic and truck tracks on Concession 11, as it is still hunting season and the snow…
There is a horse event at Larose Forest Oct 13 and 14. They are using many of our winter trails as well as others throughout the forest, so please use other trails for your training this weekend.
