PREPARING FOR THE SNOW / ORV TRANSITION!
Grooming operations have stopped. Continued warm and sunny weather has base snow disappearing fast with dirty snow, large bare sections, standing and flowing water and icy conditions. Some sections are very wet and slushy with deep water in areas. Those who are still trying to get some sled time in are off trail riding, many up in the Kingston Plains area. Friday we moved the last machine back to the barn. All 3 are tucked away waiting for their spring clean-up. Only 12 days now until the ORV season officially opens so stay tuned as we make the transition to summer trail work and playtime.

Past 24 hour Grooming Operations: GROOMING STOPPED

Forecast: Clear, 35º F, Winds S 15 mph, Gusts to 30 mph
Currently: Sunny, 45º F, Winds S 13 mph Gusts to 22 mph
