Trail Conditions: Good
Snow Cover: 0-5
Date of Report: February 13, 2025
Area Report:
The groomers have been out in full force this week, getting the trails smoothed out. For the most part, all trails have been groomed within the last day or two with all remaining by tomorrow so everything will be ready for the weekend.
Groomers report that the trails are pretty good, there are some spots better than others. There will be some areas that have rocks poking through so just a heads up. If you do see any big rocks or branches that have been pulled up from the groomer and there is a safe place to stop and toss them off the trail, the extra help is always appreciated.
There is more snow in the forecast Friday that would freshen things up nicely for the weekend.
So, get out and ride! Be safe, obey the laws and have fun!!
