GOOD SNOWFALL and WORKIN’ OVERTIME!
Four to six inches of new snow fell over the last 24 hours with the trail system in an overall very good condition, good in towns and near roadways. Groomer Operators Al and Chris were working overtime in the Big Deere yesterday and last night, both getting very good results with the new snow. Operators Les and Jim were working extra miles with our smaller club owned Deere getting the same good results. We are currently working out a plan with our neighboring club Trenary Northern Trails (TNT). They offered to cover some trail grooming on the west side until the Bully is back up and running. Its a hydraulic brake issue and these larger repairs do not happen fast with the required grant process so hang in there. It’s extra work but everyone will be doing what they can to keep the trail grooming un-interrupted. Still more Snow is in the forecast so get out and ride safe, stay right and enjoy the great riding conditions! Keep doing the Cold Weather Snow Dancing and Stay Tuned for updates!
Past 24 hour Grooming Operations: Trail 8 from West Trail 417 intersection East to 7 miles North of Shingleton, Trail 7 from Buckhorn Road North to Christmas, Trail 419, Trail 422 to Miners Castle, Wetmore Spur.
Forecast: Snow Showers, 14º F, Winds NW 15 to 20 mph 1 to 2 inches accumulation
Currently: Snow Showers, 9º F, Winds NW 20 mph, Gusts to 24 mph
