Ontario Park has closed the Minnesing Ski Trail/Mountain Bike Trail, the associated warm-up cabin, and parking lot starting November 14, 2023 to late 2024. The area is closed for skiing, winter camping, biking, and hiking as a result of the construction of a new trailer sanitary dump and fill station. |
