Wow, what can I say! What a phenomenal cross country ski trail system. I went classic skiing and then two days later explored more on skate. I will be visiting almost every week to ski around and enjoy the park. The lights on the loop near the parking lot are perfect to continue skiing after the sun goes to bed.

The park was well kept. We took our dog on the walking paths. We were back there for at least 90 mins and only came across 1 or 2 people but that could have been the time of day we were there. This made the walk peaceful, we got to enjoy the quietude of nature along with some gentle exercise.
