New Trail Open in Namakagon - additional one mile section opened

An additional one mile section of easy riding single track was opened on June 24. It runs on the Patsy Lake Trail from N14 to the Namakagon Trail, and is now designated the Patsy Lake Cutoff. The intersection of the new trail with the Namakagon Trail has been designated N16. The old Patsy Lake Cutoff to FR 206, and the road ride to the intersection of FR 206 and FR 203 have been decommissioned. All Patsy Lake return traffic is routed onto the new trail.

This completes a total of 2.3 miles of new easy riding single track in the non-motorized area west of FR 203/206. Work has resumed on the difficult single track from N29 to N11. So far this year the total hours spent on trail construction and maintenance in the Namakagon Cluster exceeds 1,000 hours. Thanks volunteers, paid crew, and the National Forest Service interns.
