VERY GOOD TRAILS BUT SNOW NEEDED
Overall trail conditions are good to very good. Grooming operations were getting good results again last night. We really need new snow to work with as the trails are getting tired. Snow on Trail 7 near Christmas is dirty with icy corners developing, all others have a great flat base developed. Trail 422 is very good.
Ride with caution on the Au Train River Bridge (see below warning). Please ride responsible making sure everyone arrives at your next destination.
Enjoy the Trails and Ride Safe!
