It looks like we are going from extreme cold to warming, with possible temps above freezing in the coming days.

The trails currently are in very good condition, with corners and high traffic areas starting to wear, and becoming icy. If temps rise above freezing, the trails will deteriorate quickly; especially as the forecasts have little snow in the near future.

There are signs of logging starting on Trail 12 south of Trail G and still some logging activity on Trail 5 south of the spillway. This could continue for the rest of the season.

Just a reminder, please approach our grooming machines SLOWLY! We do not pass snowmobiles! You must pass our machines while the machine is stopped. We will sometimes have to get to an area that is wide enough to pass. So please wait for the operator to signal you to pass, and stay back and let them get to a safe area to pass. You might even have to turn around as we will not back up.

Finally, it’s been a great season so far! Let’s keep it that way moving forward and pray for more snow!

Jerry
