March 4, 2015 – Conditions: Excellent

We didn’t get the 3-6 inches of snow the weatherman was calling for yesterday–instead we got sleet and a little snow. The trails remain in excellent condition and are groomed every day. It appears we can get another weekend of great riding in. You never know this time of year.

February 25, 2015 – Conditions: EXCELLENT–Finally!!!!!!

Just got a call from our Trail Coordinator and he informed me it’s time to bump up our trail conditions rating. That’s the best news we’ve had all season. We’ve probablly picked up an additional inch or two since yesterday’s posting so it’s safe to say we have gotten 6-7 inches in the last 24 hours with lots of drifting.

Trails overall are in excellent shape and groomers are out on a daily basis. If you are staying in the Sault please look at our list of supporters on our web page and give them your business. Please do that in all towns you visit. The grooming entities are all made up of volunteers who want you to support those who support us!!!!!!
