14 degrees this morning and cloudy. We haven`t seen the sun in more than a week. Which is good I suppose, but I could use a sunny day. Looks like we picked up another 3-4 inches last night too. Just in case you are wondering we have a solid 3 feet on the ground and ‘they’ are calling for around 6 inches more in the next couple days!!! Now…..on to the trails…

The boys haven`t been doing a good job of letting me know how their runs went….just a simple text or quick call will do boys….but I know we are in good shape. I ran the Falls trail #45 Saturday night and it turned out in pretty good shape. I DID NOT break through any water holes but there are a couple of soft spots and a couple of bumpy spots from the ground heave in the low lands from freezing. The Point trails #452 and 453 are good and the Pine Stump trail #8 is good but alot of drifting problems on this trail around the old burned area. I know all this from talking with some of the snowmobilers. Trail #8 south through our swamp is still not passable but is getting close…the gates are still closed in there.

We still have that darn groomer down…it is causing us FITS!!! Just can`t figure it out. We have replaced the lift pump, the injector pump and all the injectors and it still won`t fire. We are leaning towards an electrical problem now, maybe the brain fried, I know ours are!!! Any good diesel mechanics out there that can come UP??

This coming weekend is a holiday weekend. You won`t be disappointed if you come UP…plenty of snow and the trails are good. If we can get this other groomer running we`ll be in great shape….if not….we’ll still be good to go. We just need it going to get into the south swamp more. All I got today, keep checking back. LET ER SNOW Groomer Chris

7 degrees this morning and snowing. We picked up another 3 inches last night too. We are still under a lake effect warning untill tomorrow evening!! ‘They’ are calling for about another foot till then. Good news…bad news first…hmmmm….lets start with good.

Groomer Gerald ran the Falls trail #45 last night for the first time pulling a drag. He called me when he was done and reported it turned out in fair condition. Still alittle work to be done on this one but he got the water holes filled in again and panned out. He said its decent but just be careful….don`t go hauling butt down this trail just yet….or ever really….its a busy trail with everyone wanting to go to the Falls and the Pub out there. We didn`t run any other trails yesterday….I`ll explain next.

Now the bad…..sort of. We didn`t get the broken down groomer back UP yesterday. Everybody got busy yesterday digging out and we couldn`t get out to work on it till the afternoon. This is the reason we didn`t run any other trails also…..remember we are just a small group with other jobs and business to run. We are gonna get back at `er today and try to get it done. Not sure on the grooming schedule today either….sorry….we`ve been engrossed in gettin this groomer back UP. I do know we are trying to get back into the south swamp, hopefully tomorrow, if we can get this groomer back up. I also know we`ll have the trails in tip top shape for ya`s this weekend except maybe the south swamp. Dats it fer today. LET ER SNOW!!!!! Groomer Chris
