Fis-1

Fis-1 is a cross-country ski route in Maine, about 2.6 miles from the town of Dallas. It is a short out-and-back, roughly 0.7 miles long, with a moderate climb of about 87 feet from the start to the high point at 1,895 feet. The route is front-loaded, with the steepest stretch at the beginning, where the grade reaches about 8 percent. Winter is the natural season for this trail. Typical averages from a nearby weather station in Rangeley show January highs around 22°F with lows near 2°F, while July highs reach about 75°F. The station sits a few hundred feet lower than the trail's high point, so temperatures on the route run slightly cooler. Several other cross-country ski routes lie within a short distance. Jeff's Trail, Larry Hall Trail and Moose Alley are each about 0.3 miles away, and Fis-2 is about 0.6 miles off.
