Trail Conditions: Good
Snow Cover: 8-12”
Date of Report: January 4, 2023
Area Report:
Wow, what a difference a little snow makes. I groomed the west side trails last night and they turned out awesome. There was a few spots where I can see there is no base, but it all panned in. It was a wet snow, and today is a bit warmer, so it is now a little rain/freezing drizzle. Once it turns back to snow and trails can be panned again, this should reset the base. Temps are supposed to drop after snow event, and that will help freeze it up.
We will be watching for more snow, west coast keeps getting slammed with storms. Hopefully that will bring some more snow. Keep Dancing!

If you find a condition that you need to report to the Conover Sno-Buddies like a down tree, water on the trail, etc, either message us on Facebook, use the contact page on our website, or even notify a local establishment. They know how to get a hold of us to fix the issue.
- A reminder to ride between the orange blazers. Along Hwy K West, there were several 100 trees removed this summer to place new electric poles. Most of the stumps are still there. If you were to hit one, it could ruin your trip quickly. Ride Right ➡️ Ride Safe.
