Between Elk Lake and Skegemog the ground is all shoreline and slope, and a lawn here has to hold its shape against sand, shade and water. Elk Lake Lawn Property Maintenance mows, trims and clears these properties through the green months, then comes back with a plow when the roads go quiet and white. Summer means cutting across the down-slope so the stripes read from the dock, and carrying the clippings off before they can find the water. Winter means the long drives that wind in through the cedars, opened and salted so a car can get out to the county road. Two seasons, one property, the same hands knowing where every culvert and turnaround sits.
