Winter Recreation Tips

Trail Guidelines

• Stay to the right and travel in single file.

• Downhill persons have the right-of-way.

• Stop where you are visible to others.

• Avoid obstructing a trail.

• Fill in sitzmarks (holes created by falling).

• Pack it in, pack it out. This includes pet waste!

• Avoid loud and/or abusive language or actions. These are family-use areas.

• Consider making a donation using this website or a tube at the ski area entrance. Donations are used to maintain trails and entrance roads.

Winter Recreation Safety Tips

• Dress in layers and appropriate gear to keep warm and dry.

• Be prepared for sudden changes in weather.

• Wear sunglasses and sunscreen.

• Carry nutritious snacks and plenty of water.

• Be aware of where you are at all times; use an area map and compass.

• Carry a first aid kit and know how to use the items inside.

• Carry identification with a list of medications and contacts.

• Tell someone where you are going and when you plan to return. There is not reliable cellular phone service at the nordic areas.
