I cannot believe I’m still updating trail conditions. The trails officially close to snowmobiling this weekend…I think it’s safe to say the season is dwindling to a quiet exit. Wooded trails are still in good shape. We saw some sun and temps a few degrees over freezing on Saturday and Sunday. Exposed areas on the grade have settled and softened some, leaving crust where snow refroze overnight. The road edges are receding now–another sign of the end. The next few days will likely be the last hurrah for those who haven’t already had theirs. Here’s hoping you enjoy what’s left and look back with fond memories on a great riding season that was LONG overdue. And for all you Van Halen fans…Happy Trails to you–until we meet again!
