TASA Trail Report
January 4, 2011 6: A.M.

Trail in town is in poor condition.

Trail 9 north to Pine Stump has a 1 – 4 inch base and is in poor to fair condition

Trail 45 has a 1 – 3 inch base and is in fair condition. The trail is getting muddy in the sunny areas.

The DNRE has opened the trail from the 500 to the falls but has not been groomed due to lack of snowfall. In the open areas the snow base is thin, but in the wooded areas of the trail we still have a fair base.

The Newberry trail 9 to Rexton is in poor to good condition with a 1 – 3 inch base, please watch for the water hole north of Borgstrom road in Hemlock Ridge. From Rexton south to the wooden bridge 473 to Epoufette is rough from logging and lack of snow. The deer are out and moving so please watch for them. Have a great and safe holiday week. Overall the trails are in good condition for the amount of snow that we have. We have had rain on & off the last couple of days and the trails are deteriorating fast, please be careful on the trails and watch for icy spots. It has turned cold and is expected to stay cold for the next week but with only a couple of inches of snow acumulation. We had just a trace of snow overnight.
