We apologize for not updating the site the last few days, but unfortunately there is no new news to report. The lack of snow this season, and the ever increasing solar radiation from a sun growing stronger each day has decimated our lower level trail system. Grooming is still suspended. We will update the site as soon aswe receive a substantial snow storm. Finally, we thank those that came to last Saturday’s monthly meeting!

Unfortunately we are still waiting on a substantial dumping of snow to get us back to mid winter conditions. REMINDER: Monthly club meeting at the Canoe King on Route 16 in Tamworth this upcoming Saturday, February 6th at 5:00 PM!

The flurries that moved through the other day did not improve our situation. The extreme cold should help freeze up some of our peskier waterbars. And remember, the extreme fluctuations our lakes & streams have endured with this last snow storm make ice very unsafe for this time of year! Like everyone else we are keeping our eye to the sky for a much needed snow storm.

While we have not officially closed our trail system, we highly recommend that if you intend to ride before we get substantial new snow you trailer to the higher elevations. The railroad tracks/Corridor 19 have large areas of exposed rails, ties & switches. Black Pond Road to Page Hill has exposed rocks, stumps & roots and virtually no loose snow to lubricate your track. We want to be completely honest about our trail conditions so you won’t be fooled into thinking there is good riding across our entire system!

No sense in trying to sugar coat it, this rain and warm temps have been devastating to out lower elevation trails. We will be doing a system survey the next few days to assess the damage and will resume grooming when conditions improve. Needless to say but all bodies of water/ice are now completely unsafe!

We will keep a close eyes on today’s predicted rain and how it affects our trails. Last night Joe went out in the Tucker and flattened all that he could from WLSP outwards to prep for today’s weather and aid in recovery later this week. We will update the site & trail conditions as soon as the storm passes. It was a great weekend out on our trails, we hope you were able to get a ride in this past weekend!
