GROOMER REPORTS
Central Groomer
Central Groomer is plugging away at drifts on the rail bed. They are numerous and are very high. Be aware in Between Darlington Road and Colville Road. We will have an excavator in there to dig out the massive drift. This is going to take time to get open. It is not going to be smooth until we will be able to get the drag back on. A huge thanks to the operators putting in the time and effort. They do not get enough thanks or praise cause there are not many who will do the job with what is out there. We will keep you updated as we get the info. Hoping to get to Kensington or past today and work our we back. SLOW DOWN. Trails are going to be confined as for the size of the drifts. STAY TO YOUR SIDE OF THE TRAIL. Groomers are big and are not as nimble as sleds are.

Eastern # 1 February 26 Update
The heavy rain on Saturday did not end the season as some had expected but it did make it harder to do some of the fields. Groomer # 1 left Grandview on Sunday evening and headed down the #104 from Grandview to Murray Harbour giving one pass to the Munn's Road and a double pass from Munn's Road to Murray Harbour and back. Groomer then followed the # 305 through the County Line Road back to Greenfield. It then headed to New Perth on the # 217 but we had to skip a couple of the fields in Greenfield because of water issues in the farmers fields. Hooked back on to the trail on the Mellish Pond Road and continued on to New Perth where we went to Georgetown on the # 103 and into Montague before returning early this morning to Grandview on the 217. Like I said a couple of the fields in Greenfield were not groomed but the majority was done and should be in good shape for the next couple of days before the real mild weather comes and hopefully doesn't completely destroy everything but it is going to be hard to keep the trail system with the expected weather forecast. If you are out enjoying the trails please ride safe and keep to the right.
Island # 4 February 26 Update
Groomer left Grandview heading for Ashton on the # 217 and # 221. There are a couple fields in Greenfield that were not able to be groomed due to some water laying in the fields, does not effect snowmobiles but groomer is heavier and we didn't want any issues. Groomer continued on the way to Ashton also avoiding a small section of trail near Dundas that also had water issues. Majority of the trail came out really good. When we arrived in Ashton after fueling in St. Peter's went into Souris and Elmira before returning back to Ashton and heading back down the #221 towards Grandview. As I write this report the groomer has another 3 or 4 hours to get back to home base. Hopefully this is not the end of our grooming season but the expected mild weather is not going to help our cause. Third groomer left Grandview last night and headed through Lake Verde on the # 104 to Mt. Stewart where it then groomed into Toymaster Motor Sports before returning and did the # 103 from Mount. Stewart to New Perth before returning back down the #104 to Lake Verde and then into Mt. Herbert on the # 105 and then returning to Grandview to see what the weather will bring us
KASA Trail
Today the groomer made the second pass to Spring Valley, covered all the loops and returned to Granville. Then made a second pass to the cell tower and Margate. Trail is looking good plenty of snow and few bare spots. 306,304,206 and 208 all two passes done in last 24 hours. Another trip to Rustico and Fredericton will be made after midnight tonight once traffic settles down. Everything shaping up for a good weekend of sledding!
Springside Trail
Groomer left home base last night at 11:30 , did the 301 over to 213 behind the Lank's farm and over to Clow's red & white , then to the 100 and turned and went to Cornwall on the 315 and then North River on the 317 then over and did the 303 out through New Haven East and then New Haven west then back to the 301 and returned to home base. The trails were setting up very hard and very fast. The plan tomorrow morning is to go and fix up the damage the cement truck did on the 211 near the Ski park then carry onto Fredericton to meet the 100. We will likely park it after that and see how we fair out with the fresh snowfall forecasted for Thursday. Cuddy is reporting that everyone is doing a great job staying on the trails and please continue to do so. Ride right and watch for the flashing lights !
