the Great Northern Motel, and across the highway). Beachway Drive will lead
to Mercer Lake Circle, and then to Fierick Road... Continue south, following
the signs.
Chalet
The ski-club built a new, log-cabin-style chalet over the last couple years. It was built
by the ski-club members and volunteers, and completely funded by donations from
members, skiers, and local businesses and governments.
The chalet is located at Trailhead B, and is a great addition to the
ski trails. There is a changing room and wax bench to get ready
for the trails. There is a wood stove and hot chocolate to warm
you up after skiing. There may even be cookies supplied by the
Iron Nordic Ski Team from the Mercer school.
The chalet is usually open from 8am to 7pm during the ski season.
