Snowmobile Information:
Yesterdays high was 29, but bright sun. Today it looks like partial sun and 34. Our lake still have plenty of snow, but caution is advised due to drifts from the other day. Parts of trails in the woods area good, but open areas have burn through spots. Trail boss George, and groomer Ken worked 17, F, and 5 yesterday. Caution areas are 17 from Woodruff to East Boundary, then Raven Lake area with all the tight corners ( although good overall, some ice in corners), then out in the open by Powell Marsh bridge. Trail 1, Stearns Lake Road, is showing a lot of asphalt from sun, but there is still snow on the edges, and the banks are soft enough to pull snow down. Weather and radar shows 36 today, 37 tomorrow, 41 Sunday with chances of snow starting Sunday, then a cool down to teens at night, and 20’s during the day. Right now the trails have one foot on ice, and the other foot on a banana peel. Tons of trailers coming up last night. Casino lot is full, and so is the Great Northern in Mercer, so trails will be busy today. Ride on the right, slow down in the corners, don’t blow by slower riders, and give groomers a wide berth. That’s all I have to say about that, Forrest. Mark
