Area Report:
The snow predicted didn’t amount to what they were saying. We did get around 3″ of new snow with more on the way tonight and tommorrow. The Phelps trail system was not groomed last night but we are planning on getting out there tonight and through the weekend. Trails are as good as shape as they can be with the snow and conditions we have. Today was a high of 33. All the lake trails are mrked in Phelps but please stay on the marked trails due to slush on the ice. Please enjoy your ride in the Phelps area and make sure you fill up in tpwn and get a bite to eat.
