Hi all! Trails are looking good baby! Base is a good pack 12′! Lots of snow out there! Trail #3 Alysworth Rd. North to Maple City, Beulah #395, Landis Loop and Bear Lake Spur #386 to Pleasanton were all groomed today. The track groomer is coming down the trail tonight from T-ville to Kaleva and we will be using it to groom Trail #3 from Kaleva to High Bridge Wednesday. BUT Club trail from Chief Rd into Saddle Up Gas in Bear Lake can not be groomed at this time due to safety issues. So, IF you use that trail, stay on it and do not go around it on private property. If ya see a big green machine, stay outta their way and give them a thumbs up as they pass by! NOTE – THIS SATURDAY is WINTERFEST in Beulah – SNOWMOBILE POKER RUN, softball on the ice, frozen fish toss, hayrides, Outhouse races, Chili Cook-off, Fireworks and more! Don’t miss it! THANKS TONS for the email Dave B! Be smart, be safe, have fun and I’ll SEEYA on the trails! Carol
