With daytime temps in the high 40’s and night time temps in the low teens we’ve been able to continue grooming operations by night and enjoy comfortable riding conditions during the day. We groomed the entire trail system Monday night and it is in generally good shape! If weather permits we will groom Friday and Saturday nights. There’s still plenty of riding to be had once you get out from the trailheads and in-town access points… Enjoy the last few days of the season, we will be closing the lodge after lunch on Sunday, April 1st.
Welcome to the first day of spring and some of the best late season snowmobiling we’ve seen in years! Plenty of snow, cold temps at night allows great grooming and setup, and moderate temps during the day for comfortable riding. We groomed the entire trail system Monday night and it is in great condition! We will be grooming Thursday, Friday and Saturday nights.
Weather forecast is for 12 plus inches of snow from the Tuesday / Wednesday storm. Groomers will be out Wednesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday nights. All trail sections have plenty of snow and the riding is pretty awesome . . . . Enjoy it while it lasts!
Received 12+ inches of fresh snow from the Wednesday / Thursday storm. Both Tuckers were out Thursday night and groomed the entire trail system, except the Bald Mountain Trail (will be groomed Friday night). Groomers will be out both Friday and Saturday nights as well. All sections have plenty of snow and fine riding. It will be a good weekend to get out on the trails!
Please read the trail report carefully to find out where the best riding is… Forecast is calling for 10″ – 15″ of snow on Wednesday – Thursday. Both Tuckers will be out grooming Thursday, Friday and Saturday nights. If we get the snow they are calling for, all trail sections should be in good shape and it will be a good weekend to hit the trails.
Warm temperatures and a strong sun this week have degraded our trails further. We will not be grooming until we get some more snow, possibly next Wednesday. Good news is that the trails are hard and flat. The trails are down to the very solid base that was established early in the season, and don’t get bumped up with traffic. Bad news is that there are icy spots, with some bare ground in places. Trails are all passable. Some sections are good, some are very poor where you have to “bob & weave” to stay on snow.
We received 3” of snow on Sunday. Trails are still thin in some spots. Groomers are out doing what we can with what we have. Good news is that the trails are hard and flat. Bad news is that there are icy spots, with some bare ground in places. Trails are all passable.
Trails took a beating with the recent warm weather. Seasonal temperatures have returned and groomers are out doing what we can with what we have. Good news is that the trails have solidified FLAT.
Trails are in fine shape with good riding everywhere. Temperatures will be warming up over the next 2 days. Consequently, we will not be grooming on Tuesday or Wednesday due to high temperatures. We will resume grooming on Thursday and both Tuckers will be out every night right through the weekend.
Trails are in fine shape with good riding everywhere. We will be stepping up grooming shifts a bit over the next 10 days, to keep up with the increased traffic from school vacation week.
