Newberry Trail Report – 03/05
NEWBERRY AREA UPDATE via TASA – 03/05 TASA UPDATE: March 5, 2021 7:00am It has been a weird winter as you well know. There has certainly been a few challenges with snow and mechanical issues, but we have given it our very best to give you the very best. It is certainly late season riding conditions. The staging area in town is dirt. The stretch from town up to the Silver Creek Staging area is thin and several dirt areas and one water spot. We are losing the side of the road rather quickly. The trails are hard, flat and icy in the morning from the nights, but once the sun hits it they get soft and thin. Some of the corners are icy. We were able to get out after it cools down to scrap things back down and smooth it back out. It is barely hanging on. We will see temperatures warm up over the weekend to mid 30’s on Saturday 38 on Sunday and next week will be upper 30’s again. We will groom as long as we can. How much longer that is is uncertain and we take it day by day currently. The temperatures will be in the 40’s next week. All the updates are below. Ride Right!! We hope you understand what we are dealing with because we appreciate you being here and supporting our local business! Getting in and out of town will be rough. We realize this could be the last weekend to attempt to ride for most. We Thank each and everyone of you for your support!! Trail 45: Fair We groomed last night. The current plan is groom late evening as long as the temperature holds. We will groom tonight. There is a plowed portion where logging is taking place and it is down to dirt. This could be the last weekend to the Falls, but we will play it by ear. Icy! Trail 9: Fair We groomed last night. The current plan is groom late evening as long as the temperature holds.
