Snowy Dog Sunday

First annual Snowy Dog Bike Ride February 16th 10am till 2pm at the South Canoe trails.
Biking is awesome and the weather and local trail conditions have come together to make a ride in the snow a reality. Come out from ten till two and try out the trails and enjoy events and activities in the snow. Even non-fat bikes can access the area and we’ll be based at the party pit. Prefer to snow shoe? Still come out as the conditions are prime for a snowshoe through the trees.
