Skijoring, Dog-Sledding and Cross-Country Skiing
The Race Trail is CLOSED. See the Rules of Use below.
As a result of good accumulations of snow and cold temperatures, the Rosebud Run Sleddog Classic race trail is in excellent condition. With the 2010 Rosebud Run Sleddog Classic still weeks away, a unique opportunity exists to maximize the use of the race trail.
As a service to the community, Kathleen and Bill Windsor and the Rosebud Run Sled Dog Society have consented to allowing cross-country skiers, skijorers and sled dog teams to make use of the trail on the Windsor’s property subject to a few simple rules. Essentially, this represents the Rosebud Run 2-mile and 4-mile trails.
The current status of the trail access to sled dog teams, skijoring and cross-country Skiing is above in red print.
