Groomers are parked until we get some much needed snow. The warm up and the sun has taken a toll on the trails. Hopefully it won't last long and it will snow again soon. Our trails have held up better then expected but we will need some snow and time to get them back into riding condition again. We are not alone the trails up north are also getting very thin they also need more snow! Best thing to do is stay off the trails until we get more snow and lower temperatures. Could get some snow on Sunday thru Tuesday so do your snow dance and don't stop till you have enough!
Once the conditions improve, and you go riding again, if you would like to give us your opinion of the conditions, it would be greatly appreciated since the conditions can change with the changes in temperature and wind conditions. Just click on Galen Faith under Contacts at the left and send them.
We are experiencing sign theft again this year! Removing signs from the trails is against the law. If someone gets hurt as a result, and we find out who you are, you will be prosecuted.
We worked on three trails this past summer!
1. New trail to Forestville! Most of the signatures have been gotten and the rest are looking as though they will sign or we have alternate routes planned.
2. New trail from Forester to Port Sanilac! We have made some headway on getting a route into Port Sanilac. If you ride in this area please come to our next meeting and let us know where you have been riding.
3. New trail from Marlette to North Branch, Kingston, and Hemans! We are getting closer to getting the use of he roads in Tuscola County. The first hurdle is at least in sight now, once we have the permission from the County Road Commission, to use the ROW for snowmobile use, we will be in need of volunteers in this area to help secure the landowner signatures. So far it looks like this is going to happen! But it's not a done deal until we have the signed paper work.
If you would like to help with these projects please get in touch with us by clicking on contact above or call 810-376-4909. Time is running out many hands make light work!
