### ⭐ Trail of the Day

*Get to know Okemo! Every day, we highlight one of Okemo's 127 trails. Today's trail is*

#### 🌲 [Loose Spruce](https://www.okemozone.com/trails/loose-spruce)

![Loose Spruce](https://www.okemozone.com/hubfs/OkemoZone/trails/Loose%20Spruce.jpeg)

Loose Spruce is a fun glade between [Stump Jumper](https://www.okemozone.com/trails/stump-jumper) and [Off The Rim](https://www.okemozone.com/trails/off-the-rim) on [South Face](https://www.okemozone.com/areas/south-face) and you can enter the trail from either one. There's some breathing room between the trees, making it easier than other glades like [Black Hole](https://www.okemozone.com/trails/black-hole) and [Supernova](https://www.okemozone.com/trails/supernova). Be prepared to dodge stumps and rocks depending on the cover. If you get tired, [Stump Jumper](https://www.okemozone.com/trails/stump-jumper) and [Off The Rim ](https://www.okemozone.com/trails/off-the-rim)are never too far away on either side.
