TRAILS TAKING A WEATHER BEATING
Overall trail conditions are good to very good. Last night was a grooming operator struggle with wet snow and rain so we are knocking it down a notch. The 6175R Deere did a little better being able to kick the speed up and keep the snow from balling up in the Dubie Groomer. The Bully was not so lucky and had operator Chris frustrated on the west side, he was able to knock moguls down but flowing snow was next to impossible. Overall both machines cleaned up the trails as good as possible. This warm wet weather will be rough on conditions with use today. Do a cold weather snow dance so we can really kick up the reported trail conditions. Enjoy the Trails and Ride Safe!
