Snowmobile Trail Conditions Report: The Forks, Maine December 26

The rainstorm and warm temperatures that we had at the end of last week wiped out our trail system. Temps have cooled off well below freezing, so water is getting locked up again. Trails are rock hard to glare ice with no lube on road sections. Wooded sections are very rough with rocks and stumps showing. The heavy rain produced running water down and across the trail in many spots. These have frozen back up, but the damage is there. I suppose you can ride, but it is pretty ugly until we get some snow. Six inches would put us back in half decent shape. We’re keeping a close eye on Friday’s potential storm.

There is some decent riding just north of us, on the Coburn Summit Riders and Jackman Border Riders trail system. Check out their Facebook pages for trail reports.
