Update from Camp Sagawau. It looks like there will be an option for rentals through the website - they have to be reserved in advance.

Trail Update Jan 24, 2022 @ 11:00 AM

Snow just stopped about 20 minutes ago, giving us a total of 4.5" from the weekend. Our groomer has hit the trails and Sagawau Sam will have a full trails and rental report for you upon the groomer's return this afternoon. In the meantime:

*If you have your own skis, you can ski the trails today, make sure to display your free trail pass at all times (available outside the Nordic Center entrance). WATCH FOR GROOMING EQUIPMENT AND PLEASE STEP ASIDE to allow our groomer to pass.

*Renters: we will pin the Sign-Up Genius link to the top of this page once we are open for rental. RESERVATIONS ARE REQUIRED in order to rent, this allows us to prevent indoor crowding during rental and returns.

As always, thank you to the callers who have been courteous with our staff on the phones, we appreciate it.

Get out and get skiing!! Trails are open!

Trail report: We are finally open for skiing. Our location barely got the minimum amount of snow that skis can glide on and the snow is wet. That means we can't try grooming the trails until tomorrow when it's dried out.

This year there are NO WALK-UP RENTALS. All rentals must reserve a time. Reservation links can be found on the post pinned to the top of our page where you can also read our COVID-19 protocols.

Great article on the benefits of riding on a pump track — luckily we have an awesome pump track right here in Lemont at The Forge. My son and I can't spend enough time there, seven miles this past Sunday! Be sure to check it out!

For me it was the MS150… How about you?

Few things are as motivating as sandbagging yourself publicly.

It might be snowing outside, but you can still be getting ready for the cycling season.

Here we are 90 days later. I had high hopes for the Zwift, and indoor cycling. I wasn’t sure if I could stick with riding it five days a week. But, my goal is to ride 100 miles for the MS150 Tour d…
