Just heard from groomer Chris who did the west trail last night. He reports the trail is good but lots of traffic.

It seems extremely busy this weekend so I’m sure by afternoon the trails are going to be pretty beat up.

We have groomers going out between 2 and 3 today to tackle the east and west trails and when they get done 2 more drivers will tackle the north and south trails. Be careful out there and watch out for the other guy. We are still working with only 2 groomers.

Hopefully our other one will be fixed and delivered early next week.

Groomer Report:

No fresh snow yesterday but all of our trails are groomed and doing well.

We are grooming every day. The trails are overall GOOD with a couple areas in FAIR condition. The wet spots seem to be frozen again and are holding for now, still use caution on trail 3 North of trail 8 for a few miles.

The 6th Annual trailside hotdog cookout will be held on Saturday the 4th of February. Stop by at the clubhouse in Trout Creek along trail #8 and have a hotdog on us. We will also have wonderful homemade cookies, coffee and hot chocolate. We usually are up and running around 10:00AM and will go until around 3:00PM, conditions permitting. This is a thank you from the club to the riders for coming to our area!

Please DO NOT climb the “Military Hill” from the highway, US 45, to the fence, we have ongoing erosion issues there and the hill climbers are adding to the problem. YOU COULD CAUSE THIS MAJOR TRAIL TO BE CLOSED IF YOU CONTINUE!

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

Trail #3 North to Rockland is FAIR – GOOD. Some icy spots, but much better on the North end.
Trail #8 from Ewen to trail #3 North is GOOD.
Trail #3/8 East from Bruce Crossing to the trail #3 South intersection is FAIR with some thin spots.
Trail #3/8 West from Bruce Crossing to the trail #3 North intersection is FAIR with some thin spots.
Trail #3 South from the railroad grade to the CC road is FAIR.
Trail #8 from the trail #3 South intersection to Trout Creek is GOOD.
Trail #8 from Trout Creek to Kenton is GOOD.
Trail #8 from Kenton to Sidnaw is GOOD.
Trail #8/15 from Sidnaw to the trail #109 intersection is GOOD.

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.

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.

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