Trail Conditions 9/30/2026
The fall foliage is peaking, making it a beautiful time of year to be out on the trails! Our trails remain in good shape for hiking and mountain biking, although bikers should be aware of loose surfaces due to the dry conditions and freshly fallen leaves. The beaches on Flagstaff Lake remain near their maximum extent. Grass and overgrowth has been recently cut on most trails, so they should remain in good shape throughout the rest of the fall.
Self-service overnight stays are still available at Stratton Brook Hut on a limited number of dates throughout October. Reservations for winter trips open on October 5th.
Dogs are allowed April 15th – November 30th only. Clean up after your pooch, please.
