There is now a plowed parking area at the beginning of trail #8 under the International Bridge, which has an all-season porta John. Make sure you lock your vehicles and trailers.
If you are staying in the Sault please look at our list of supporters on our web page and give them your business. Please do that in all the towns you visit. The grooming entities are all made up of volunteers who want you to support those who support us!!!!!!
Remember trail base is the amount of snow between your track and the ground below not the amount of fluff piled up in the woods. 10 inches of snow compresses to less than an inch on the trail.

Much of the Ashland County snowmobile trail system uses private property and could be lost if the property owners experiences issues. The most common complaints are snowmobiles not staying on trails or going off into fields that are not part of the trail, and loud noise from non-stock muffler systems. Respect the trail system. The Tri-county corridor is open.

Area Report:
Trail report for February 12, 2020 – Trails are good. The present temp today here in Boulder Junction is 14 Deg. We had a dusting of snow yesterday and may get a dusting of snow for the next few days. We also expect the temps for the next day to get colder with highs in the single digits. With the lack of snow on the trail it’s hard to keep the trails flat and there are many areas that can be icy, and the snow can be very hard especially in the corners. Please use caution. The groomers are out there doing the best they can to make your ride more enjoyable for you. When you see them give them give them a thumbs up and follow all directions from the groomer. They can be out on the trail any time day or night. Pray for more snow! Stay on marked trails! Remember to be safe, ride right, and enjoy the ride.
