Conditions remain the same as previously posted. There is some talk of snow for Christmas. If conditions change, there will be an update posted.

The area has been pretty much free of snow for several days except for a few spots in the forest. This morning that all started to change bringing a light snow cover throughout the day. As of this evening we have picked up 2-3 inches which has left us snow-covered and looking like winter again.

If you haven’t already purchased your trail permit, be sure to put it on your Christmas list. Trail permit dollars help keep the groomers running and the trails brushed and signed.

PLEASE REMEMBER we have been asked by the State Park folks to stay off the White Pine Trail until there is at least four inches of snow on it…Let’s all respect this request. Thanks!

We’ve been working hard all summer brushing and signing the trails and doing equipment maintenance on our five tractors, drags and brushing equipment. Some of our buildings needed maintenance and sprucing up as well.

We’re excited about having a new Dubie drag on order. Should be here in time for some serious grooming this winter. We’ll be using it on the 7920 in the mid-region of our trail system.
