The dogs and I just came in from a walk along the trail. Its in great shape. We could see that easily, and when we had to climb down along the railroad track for the speeding sleds it confirmed what I already knew. The trail is flat and fun to ride.

The general agreement around the dining room this morning was that the trails held up well with all the traffic of yesterday. Everyone said it was the most traffic they have seen on the trail for many years. It was one sled after another all day and into the night. There were several police officers along the way parking and watching.

It’s a great day to get out and ride. Many of the weekend people will be headed for home.
