GREAT RIDING – MACHINE DOWN
Overall trail conditions are very good to good with decent riding conditions. Recovery went well but we need fresh snow which is in the forecast. In general we have a great flat base but snow has become thin and icy in some of the high traffic area corners. In town roads are primarily bare. One groomer went down last night blocking a section of Trail 417 and will be for a few days (See warning below). The Deere will be running overtime so keep an eye out for it. Remember our grooming machines run 24 hours so stay alert. Keep the cold weather snow dancing going, Enjoy the Trails and Ride Safe!
Past 24 hour Grooming Operations:
Trail 7 from Christmas to CR440, Trail 8 from 7 miles North of Shingleton west to Trail 417 & Trail 422.
Forecast: Scattered Snow Showers, High 22ºF, Winds N 10 to 15 mph gusts to 20 mph
Currently: Cloudy, 24º F, Winds NE 15
