Nordic Heritage Center — Attraction in Presque Isle

I primarily trail run here, and it's very good for that. But Mt.Biking, hiking, walking, would all be excellent as well. Every trail I've been on (haven't hit all of them yet) has been hard pack, and dry. No loose gravel, wobbly rocks, or spongy dirt. Also they have been primarily dry, no mud or puddles to navigate. I just wish the trail maps were updated because I have found cut offs and short connectors that are unaccounted for and have gotten me off track. It'd be nice to have markers every so often on the trails. Also the intersections are all marked, with an attached map (very handy) but can still be a bit confusing. If the signs were separated and put just a few feet down each trail it could cut down some confusion. Versus all signs being central with arrows pointing many directions but not...

The mutli-use trails here are some of the best in the area! Having fairly recently hiked Mount Washington and Mount Monroe (an amazing hike!), I wasn't sure how my hiker itch would sustain itself in mostly flat Aroostook County outside of summer travelling time. I was able to "hike" for about 4 hours on a single visit just on the trails at the Nordic Heritage Center and only saw one person the entire time. That's pretty impressive for around here and once the weather turns....cold, dark, and white.....it's good to know that this is a spot I can spend multiple hours...

Awesome facility with a great atmosphere and even better trails however it however it was recently closed down and shut off from use by the public even though the fort Kent branch was given to the town/city and remains open for public use... such a huge blow to the community, this facility was used by alot more people than I think anyone actually...
