Sault Ste. Marie Trail Report – 02/17

02/17 – Groomers were out last night, some getting stuck on slick hills, but trails are in good condition. Light snow keeps falling and its not a lot, but it keeps adding up. Brimley has shoulder issues but it usually does except right after snow storm.

We got 2-3 inches last night and today, trails are in rideable condition. Groomers have been out on all trails except the south loop of Kinross. Trails are frozen flat but a good snow/icy mix on top. Conditions still range from fair to excellent! There is some snirt in and out of towns but not much. The MSA Ride In will be in town this weekend, we have our pancake breakfast on Saturday 8-11am at our groomer barn, and switch over to chili and dogs from 1130 -2 for MSA riders. The farther south the less snow, the farther west and north more snow and better trails.

Join us on Facebook also.

We will be taking over he 38 miles of trails groomed by Kinross Charter Township last season.
