Paradise Area Trail Report – 03/12

PARADISE AREA UPDATE via Paradise Area Night Riders www.paradiseareanightriders.org​ – 3/12

March 12, 2020

35 degrees this morning and kinda foggy/misty out. The weather is all over the map so I`m not even gonna venture on a guess on whats coming. I do know all about the trails so here ya go…..

On top of the list is the trail closure we had to do. The swamp south of town opened up yesterday so we had to close the gates. We had a "local" ride thru there and he took a couple of pics. It is UGLY, do not go around the gates!!!! The rest of trail #8 south is fine though.

Groomer Mike ran the Pine Stump trail #8 and called it good. The short sections of dirt road we use are down to mud but you can get around them fine.

Groomer Zach ran the Falls trail #45 last night and called it fair. He said there are a few wet spots starting to show up but no open water holes yet.

Groomer Glenn ran the Point trails # 452 and #453 and called them good. These are high ground trails so we don`t have much of a problem with water on them but there is a couple of water holes you have to watch out for, but for now they are still froze solid.

So, there you have it. Me thinks this may be the last good weekend of riding unless something extreme happens with the weather. Keep checking back, and if it does I`ll let ya know.

I want to give a special shout out to our "local" Ed Sabo for the heads up on the swamp. Its the help from people like you that makes this all work. We can`t be everywhere all the time on the trails to keep an eye on things. THANK YOU Ed!!!!!!!!

28 degrees this morning and snowing lightly. Looks like we picked up about an inch last night. I went for a ride all day yesterday so here`s a report from the seat of my sled……

We headed out for Pine Stump in the morning. It did get down into the teens the night before and we had a heavy dusting of snow and the trails were hard and a touch icey. Trail #8 was smooth for the most part with just a few stutter bumps in a few corners, which I like anyhow. All in all…perfect for me. On the way back the the trail softened up nice but a few more chatter bumps showed up and the dirt roads thawed some so they were muddy but we got around them just fine. Saw more traffic than I expected though, probably about 100 other sleds. We also rode trails #452 and #453 and they were awesome….flat as a board…only about 10 sleds down them all day by the looks of the tracks on them. The 2 guys I took with me said it was the best late season riding they ever had!

So, that covers the Stump trail and the Point trails. I haven`t been to the barn in 2 days now and have not heard from anyone so don`t know what is going on today, except Groomer Mike is runnin the Stump trail today.

Thats all I know. Thanks for tuning in. Had an excellent day on the trails yesterday, only my 2nd ride of the season…..sad….for living UP here.

The weather has been all over the place so not even gonna guess whats next.
