Grooming Scheduling 
[ Bare ground ]
Conditions: Backcountry Skiing.
Currently, due to short staffing the Rock Lake Trail has yet to be cleared of the downed trees and small saplings that are within the trail corridor.
The Great Divide Ranger District is looking for volunteer to help clear the trail of the small saplings to expedite grooming operations. If you would like to help out please contact Chad Jacobson at the USFS Glidden Office at 715-264-2511.
