Sidnaw / Bruce Crossing Trail Report – Sno Valley Riders Snowmobile Club – 01/14

Groomer Report:

Trails are doing well but there are lots of riders around so they will be better early in the day. We will keep working at it to make them the best we can.

Please ride on your own side of the trail and STOP at the stop signs!

When I report “base” that is the depth of the un-groomed snow on my yard South of Sidnaw. There is no possible way to accurately report what the depth is under your snowmobile on the groomed trail, it varies widely.

Trail #3 North to Rockland is GOOD to EXCELLENT.
Trail #8 from Ewen to trail #3 North is GOOD to EXCELLENT.
Trail #3/8 from Bruce Crossing to the trail #3 South intersection is EXCELLENT.
Trail #3 South from the railroad grade to the CC road is GOOD.
Trail #8 from the trail #3 South intersection to Trout Creek is EXCELLENT.
Trail #8 from Trout Creek to Kenton is EXCELLENT.
Trail #8 from Kenton to Sidnaw is EXCELLENT.
Trail #8/15 from Sidnaw to the trail #109 intersection is EXCELLENT.

Watch for the groomers, they take up most of the trail and have the right of way!
Please pull over and DIM your lights for them, they have a long night out there.
Remember, you can get off the trail, the groomer can not.

Please do not climb the “Military Hill” from the highway to the fence, we have ongoing erosion issues there and the hill climbers are adding to the problem.

Have a fun and safe trip, thank you for riding our trails and visiting our local businesses!
