GROOMER REPORTS
Central Trail
We are still alive!! Reports have been hard to update with schedule but central groomer is still on the move. We did some runs last thursday friday saturday with the snow lacking in most spots. Only the North Side loop (212) were we able to do something with as we are able to pull snow in from around the posts. With the forecasted weather we opted to hold for more snow before tackling the railbed again. The snowfall was something but not the amount we wanted. Started last night on the railbed heading east (100) when the winds tapered off . Seen the usually drifting in the areas around dunstaffanage and bedford. Few stuck sleds and one left between Corrigan Rd and Route 2. Proceed with caution in that area. Came back and did the 212 and the finger into Coach's. At this time groomer is headed west on railbed (100). We have be told of heavy drifting in areas from Colville rd to Hunter River and in Freetown Areas. Others areas could still have less snow than what we had at the first of the week cause of the winds. Plan is to run all day today and continue thru the night. Sun is to be out all weekend so the trails will settle a bit in areas and lose more in others. If sleds are stuck on the trails please try to move to one side to allow the groomers to pass. If assistance is need please email and let us know. Sled Safe. Stay to the right. Watch out for groomers. Check on them from time to time. Will update later when check in with operators
Eastern Grooming
The groomer has been very busy doing maintenance on all of our trails. The #305 has had three full passes of the drag as well as the #425 and trail #104 down to Murray Harbor from The Munn's Road Intersection. The #313 and #217 from East Uigg have also had multiple passes with the drag. All trails in our trail system are in great shape so please get out and enjoy
Eastern 1 Trail
The eastern groomer left from New Harmony this morning at 7:00am with the box drag on heading towards Mt. Stewart on the 100. There are lots of drifts to get through on the trail and it is slow going. The groomer will then go back to Ashton and down the 221 trail and the 321 towards Peakes Tee, then back on the 221 to the new 315 trail to Fortune. The groomer will then head back east to Elmira on the 100 and bust out the 225 trail. We will be hooking onto the drag through the night when the temperatures drop to smooth out the trails for our riders!
Island # 4
The Groomer has been busy at night doing regular maintenance on the trail. Thursday night we did a double pass of the #104 from Grandview up to Mt. Stewart and then on to the intersection in New Perth before returning the same route. On Friday night the groomer left Grandview after 9.00 pm and traveled the #217 from Uigg to New Perth before also doing another pass of the #103 from New Perth into MT. Stewart before returning the same way. Trails will be busy today and with the temperature going above the freezing mark hopefully the trails will hold up. Groomer will be going again tonight
KASA Trails
Monday evening the groomer left home base and headed for Fredericton on the 208 and did into rustico on the 308. Yesterday he completed the 208 into the cell tower in Kensington and over to Springvalley on the 304 and the hall rd,206. To finish off the night he did the 402 and 406 from Springvalley to French River over to Granville. The last few cold nights and some drifting the last few days has certainly helped fill in our trails and they are in great shape.
