Happy Snowy TRAILS,

Thanks to all that signed the petition. It was a big help and the trail stays put for this year anyway.

Snowed about 10'-12" overnight. Blowing and drifting makes it difficult to determine just how much we received.  We had a good solid 12"-18" base of frozen hard packed snow under that so sledding is good.Just went for a nice ride around Gero island and didn't see a soul! Nothing major groomed yet, just a few club trails to make getting around a little easier. Lake ice is a clear 6". Some slush with the weight of the all the snow. Still some open spots.

Brought in a 1999 BR275 MP Plus the day after Christmass. Fabricating a hitch now and going over every nook and cranny of it. It's in very good shape but needs some updating. Looks like we are a week out on our first run. A lot of welding and retrofitting from a ski-slope machine to a trail dragger. The PB240 headed down to Abol Bridge to groom portions of ITS86 and it's drag is getting refit to the 240 from the 170.

Off to a good start. Should have our trail nailed down in a week. A lot of cutting in the area, and a lot of hauling going on before more snow hits.
