*****  NOTE *****   PLACID LAKE CHANNEL WILL BE CLOSED THIS FRIDAY FOR TREE WORK

Trails remain in excellent condition. We have been getting small amounts of snow every other day or so to add to the great base we have. Be cautious some of the corners are icy. The channel that connects Fence Lake to Lake Placid under highway F will be closed Friday 2/6 trees are being cut. Use an alternate route until further notice.
