Drummond Island Trail Report – 03/11

3/11/13…. It has been in the upper 30’s and raining for the past 2 days. Trail conditions unknown at this point. On the good side it is supposed to cool down tomorow and the groomers can possibly go check the damage. I would dare to say the the trail between the end of the Plains and Glen Cove along the shore line is most likely not good due to rain run off.

Base: 6 inches

Snowfall Past 24 hours: 0 inches

Last Grooming: 3/04/13

Current Trail Conditions: Fair

2013 INTERNATIONAL ICE BRIDGE TO CANADA:

The Ice Bridge IS OPEN.

US Customs Hours, at DI Yacht Haven, will be Friday/Saturday/Sunday from 2PM – 10PM each day. Before you cross make sure you have the appropriate ID paperwork.

St. Ignace Trail Report – 03/11

Still raining. It really was not supposed to, but it has rained pretty much since Saturday night. Ranging from a light mist to a steady drizzle. We got a trace of snow Saturday night, and as much as 3′ in Trout Lake, which is all gone now. We have lost 12′ or about 1/2 of the snow in my yard at the house. I don’t think trails got that hammered, there was 12-14′ of hard packed base in the woods, and the RR Grade has 8-10′ of ice + snow on that, so both should survive with some work.

I will post up a trail evaluation after it cools down, and we can send the groomers out. Right now that is planned for either late tonight, or most likely Tuesday afternoon.

Weather forecast for the coming days is actually pretty decent. You will be riding in the UP this weekend for sure.
