Kukagami Trails!
Public Service Announcement:
There are now 7 km of Ski trails track-set! The trails start across from Sportsman's Lodge.
Snowshoe trails are also available at two locations. Some begin across from Sportsman's Lodge and travel through the white pine forest. Another trail starts at the tall tower (across from the dump) and goes about a kilometer to the Klondike scenic cliffs.
Skidoo trails have been open for a few weeks, and now nearly all the slush has gone from the lakes so travel is good!
Maps for all trails are available at Sportsman's Lodge, 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. (except Mondays)
We ask that all trail users stay on their designated trails! There are lots of opportunities for everyone to have fun in winter...so please don't drive on the ski and snowshoe trails.

Winter has arrived!
After a long and lovely autumn, winter has finally come to Kukagami. The last bit of water turned to ice on the chilly night of December 28th. The snow came in small quantities until just a few days ago, and now there is a lot! Time to get outside… snowshowing, skiing, skidooing, ice fishing…enjoy!

December 29th
Overnight the wind died down, and at last all the water was covered with a thin sheet of ice. Now we wait for more cold weather...and then snow!
December 28
Most of the lake froze over on the night of December 24th, then was buried in the first real snow of the season. One large hole in the ice remained. Strong south winds on the 26th made the hole bigger. Strong north winds on the 27th kept new ice from forming. This photo was taken on the morning of the 28th of December....mist rising from the waves on the open water as the north wind continues to blow.
