Drummond Island Trail Report – Drummond Island Snow Report – 02/24
SNOWMOBILING FANS: Base: thin at best Snowfall Past 24 hours: 0 inches Last Grooming: 2/4/2011 Current Trail Conditions: Could be better! Groomers Report: INTERNATIONAL ICE BRIDGE TO CANADA: The Ice Bridge is OPEN. Do ride with caution! As the warmer weather continues the ice will start the spring shift/thaw. Check with the locals before crossing. Customs officials are manning the Island offices and have posted regular hours. Before you cross make sure you have the appropriate ID paperwork. CROSS COUNTRY SKIING FANS: All trails are in poor condition but can still be enjoyed. Locals are skiing the ice in the bays and reporting good conditions. SNOWSHOEING FANS: Snowshoes are no longer necessary to navigate this network of trails. A study pair of waterproof boots will let you get out and about just fine. SLUSH FEST! March 19, 2011 starting at 11am on the ice @ Yacht Haven Polar Ice Jump Heated Tent! Fun, Food and a guaranteed good time!
Updated: 2/24/2011
While the groomer hasn’t been out in a while there is still enough snow on some of the trails to get out and have some fun before Old Man Winter is gone for good. Snow base on the Island currently stands at 5 inches.
Drummond Islanders don’t sit around and bemoan the weather! Any season is a reason to celebrate!
Food & Festivities continue @ Chuck’s, Northwood and Pins later in the evening.
