GREAT LATE SEASON RIDING – STILL ONE BIG PROBLEM !
Overall excellent trail conditions from Trail 422 West. Trails prior to grooming are in very good condition and excellent after. Machine is still sitting on Trail 8 just East of Trail 422 until later today. Trail 8 East of Trail 422 and North of Shingleton is expected to get very rough. We are doing what we can to address the situation as soon as possible. Operators Dave, Quest and Tyler were working tirelessly on the Old Deere track system to see if it can be used as a fill-in with an old groomer. Right now we still have some issues keeping it from happening. Ride safe!
Past 24 hour Grooming Operations:
Trail 419 East, Trail 8 West to Trail 7 North, Trail 7 North, Trail 422 and Wetmore Spur.
Today’s Forecast: Slight chance of Snow Showers, 35 degrees, 5 to 10 mph Northwest wind.
