LOTS OF NEW SNOW!
Trails are in an overall good condition with 6 to 8 inches of new snow overnight. Operators were reporting very good results but snow was not setting with a good amount of traffic all night. With that trails are listed as good because they are not expected to hold flat for very long today. Operators are doing what they can with the tools at hand as we anxiously await the return of our Big John Deere. Get out and enjoy the trails and Stay Tuned for updates!
