Friday Morning Snow and Trail Report…
by Heart Lake Resort on Friday, January 20, 2012 at 9:13am

Very cold out as I write this here at Heart Lake Resort south of Gaylord – 7.3 degrees – 9:04 am. I can report that the trails in our area a generally in ‘good’ condition. The snow in the back country is very good. We got hit hard yesterday with a lot of snow. The groomers have been out and continue to operate. It will be a busy weekend on the trails with folks making up for lost time. No more real accumulation in the forecast over the weekend, just some flurries, but cold temps for sure! The trails are good now but I’m sure by the end of the weekend will be a little rough where there is heavy traffic, tight corners or in the narrow places. Ride Safe!

It has come to my attention that there is no fuel symbol on the snowmobile trail map for the North Store. The North Store is located at Wolf Inn Jct. They are open from 9 A.M. to 9 P.M.

We need more snow! And cold weather.

FYI: There will not be gas at Rainbow Lodge this year as they are closing for the winter. There is a gas pump logo on the trail map, but they will be CLOSED. The map is new for this year,and I recieved the information about Rainbow Lodge after the maps went to the printer.
