23 degrees this morning and partly cloudy. We haven`t had any new snow in a couple weeks now but its been pretty cold day and night so the trails have been holding up pretty well. We haven`t groomed anything since last Saturday but all the people I`ve talked to are saying the trails are great! They are hard and icey but totally flat. I`m sure all you weather geeks have seen we are in for a "big" snow storm coming in Thursday night till Saturday morning. "They" are saying 6-13" from what I've seen. I`ll believe it when I see it tho.

Soooo.....if you`re thinking about coming UP for one last ride this weekend, I say go for it!!! I think you`ll have a blast and if we get just a few inches of snow you won`t have any cooling issues. It looks like next week we are gonna warm up into the upper 30`s to low 40`s, but what do I know, I ain`t no weatherman.

Just thought I would jump on here to give ya`ll a heads up. You just might be able to squeak in one more weekend in this crappy, and super short, winter season this year.

25 degrees this morning and cloudy with a stiff NE breeze. Watching the weather guy this morning it looks like way down below they got about a foot of snow, boy, I wish that would have been UP this way!!! Thanks everybody for the words of encouragement yesterday. I really was thinking about quittin doing the reports cause I just don`t need this chit in my life right now but now I think I`ll just keep keepin on. I don`t deserve all the credit for my reports, not even much of it really. All the credit should go to the groomer guys who do such a good job at keeping ME informed on what they are seeing, I just report it all back to you. Soooo......that being said.....thank you and here`s what they told me from yesterdays runs....

Groomer Mike C. said the Pine Stump trail #8 is still in good shape. The snow is gettin thinner everyday and more an more dirt and gravel is starting to show up and the plowed dirt roads we use are all mud but all in all he would call the trail good.

Groomer Kevin ran the Falls trail #45 and said it is still in really good shape. A few of the wet areas are starting to get soft and break up along the edges and there is some dirt showing up here an there.

Groomer Mike H. hit the Point trails #452 & #453 and called them really good yet with the same problem of some dirt showing up here an there.

We are done with the South trail #8 and the gates are closed on the swamp south of town.

We`ll keep grooming till the end but I see the end in the very near future. We will probably just run a short schedule now and only groom when needed.

Keep the track side down!!!
