Paradise Area Trail Report – 01/07

January 7, 2018

18 degrees this morning and snowing. Picked up about an inch last night and it looks like its gonna snow most of the day. The weather guessers are calling for 3-6. I know ya`ll are itching to hear how it went yesterday in the swamp so here it goes……

The boys made it through without too much trouble. The water holes weren`t quite as deep as expected, probably cause of all the cold temps, but it is NOT RIDABLE YET!!! It is muddy in there. There is a gate on the south entrance that is CLOSED. Do NOT go around this gate. If you do you will get muddy and probably stuck and we will NOT come and rescue you. There is no gate on the north side but we are gonna go down and put up caution tape. DO NOT go under this or you will end up same as above. We will go back in there in a day or two…..we want to let it set up for a bit. The snow today will help. Let me explain something to you. If you go in there and tear it up trying to get thru you will be hurting the progress. Just stay out for a few more days….PLEASE. Our goal is to open it up by the end of the week. The rest of the trail from the river mouth to the Silver Creek is pretty good. Couple small water spots but we`ll clear them up fast. The Federal Forest section from the Creek to Lakeshore is pretty good also. We left the gates open on that section but just be careful, there are a couple small wet spots in there to watch out for.

I did get to talk to Groomer Don yesterday afternoon about the Point Trails. He said there was alot of trees down and a few wet spots but he got`em all cleared up. I got the feeling he`ll be runnin in there with a drag today but don`t take my word on this.

So….all good news today…..how bout dat!!!

Paradise Area Trail Report – 01/04

January 4, 2018

WOW!!! Is it ever nasty outside this morning. I`ve got 4 below zero here with a steady 20 mph wind outa the north and that gives us minus 40 degree wind chill on my little weather station….and its snowing sideways…..nasty! Hard to tell how much snow we got in the last 24 hrs. but my deck rails have about 4 inches on them so I`ll go with that.

About the only thing that I know that went on yesterday as far as grooming is Groomer Mike took off for Pine Stump at 3 pm. This is a 12 hr. run so haven`t heard a word from him. I`ll bet the burn area, which we call Siberia, was interesting for him.

Like I posted yesterday, we are waiting for parts for the other 2 machines, which should be in today. I`ll get my ducks in a row later this morning and find out if everything came in and head to the barn after I clean up my parking lot.

We are planning to head south thru our swamp tomorrow if everything works out. Stay tuned.
