Narrative:
Upon landing at maple lake airport on runway 28, a strong crosswind blew me onto the grass between the runway and the taxiway. I increased power to clear a culvert and then landed across the taxiway and landed without incident in the grass and stopped on the paved parking area. I taxied the plane to the hangar and put it away.
