Sidnaw / Bruce Crossing Trail Report – Sno Valley Riders Snowmobile Club – 03/07

Groomer Report:

Well, the weatherman wasn’t wrong! We had nearly 50 yesterday with lots of sun and wind so the trails have gone down hill fast. There are lots of bare spots, icy corners and wet areas so I am calling FAIR for now but with the forecast I am sure it will be POOR soon and even unrideable in the next day or so. Obviously we are not grooming with these conditions. Keep your fingers crossed for a good St. Patricks Day storm and we may get a little more riding to this season.

The 5th annual hotdog cookout was a great success, we met a lot of great snowmobilers and had a lot of good conversations, we even have two new members. Thank you to all that stopped by!

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 in FAIR condition.

Trail #8 from Ewen to trail #3 North is in FAIR condition.

Trail #3/8 from Bruce Crossing to the trail #3 South intersection is in FAIR condition.

Trail #3 South from the railroad grade to the CC road is in FAIR condition.

Trail #8 from the trail #3 South intersection to Trout Creek is in FAIR condition.

Trail #8 from Trout Creek to Sidnaw is in FAIR condition.

Trail #8/15 from Sidnaw to the trail #109 intersection is in FAIR condition.

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.

Use caution when using the RiderX trail maps, they are wrong! Watch the trail signs for the correct routes.

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!

Frederic / Gaylord Area Trail Report – Sledheads of Frederic – 03/07

Short and not sweet enough would just about describe our winter season this year.

It seemed like we just got going well and whamo we are all done. Its sunny and 43 degrees already this morning and weather said 60 for tommorow.

This is where I guess I throw in the towel on winter and send out a big Thank You to all of you that stopped by Sledheads this short winter and to the many of you that are daily readers that havent had the chance to make it here or are to far away. There were several regulars that I never saw this winter. Hopefully next winter will be a 16 week long one insteand of a 5 or 6 week long one.

I will start to cut back on daily updates and try to get one on at least every couple weeks during the summer…..
