Trail Conditions: Fair
Snow Cover: 6-10”
Date of Report: February 13, 2025
Area Report:
Went for a ride yesterday and put 70 miles on. We went from Conover, thru Phelps and into Forest county. All trails were fair to good. Some thin areas but was all groomed as flat as it could be. A little more snow and all the clubs can fill in the few dips.
Conover was groomed last night. This was the first time this season I was able to groom quicker. That means the bumps weren’t that bad, I could do some trails with one pass. I don’t know if it was less traffic so far this week, or the real cold temps we had froze in that base nicely. Either way, they turned out good.
We got a dusting to 1” of fresh snow yesterday and more in the forecast for Friday into Saturday.
News and Reports:
Trail 12 from the RR grade TIN 732 to County K TIN 731 has ruts from ATVs. There isn’t enough snow to fill the ruts. We put signs at each end of the trail for Caution Next 1 mile and Rough Trail. Use caution when traveling this area.
The Cemetery Trail from TIN 724 to TIN 725, and south to TIN 727 at Church Rd is thin for snow cover. You will find a few bare spots, There is a hill between TIN 725 and TIN 726 at Lindberg Rd that was bare from sleds going up it. The swamp area did freeze up, so it is good to go.
