Sault Ste. Marie Trail Report – 12/22
About 15 degrees this morning with lite snow out of the East and breezy. We are supposed to get 2-4 inches all together but the wind is drifting it. The trails are in fair shape but not much base and this new snow will add to it. Still wet area between Kinross and Raco but the rest of our trails are good riding. We groomed part of Paradises trail to the west of us because the swamp is too wet to bring their drag down thru it, about 5 miles on trail #8. Via Sault Ste. Marie Snowmobile Association on Facebook December 20 Trails are in fair to good shape going west on trail #8. Some flowing water on the Spile Dam trail. There will be water in many of the wet areas until the snow gets packed and the frost gets driven into the ground, especially after a groomer goes thru. We will be grooming the Bay Mills Trail tonight as their groomer is down. Join us on Facebook also. Sault Ste. Marie to Brimley, Trail #8 – Base 1-3 inches -Trail is in Fair to Good Condition.
