we will be grooming today and tonight, the trail were done local Monday and left alone because of the warm weather, it's getting colder out and expecting 12' to 18" of snow for the weekend, happy riding trails still seem to be in good shape yet. but I haven't heard or confirmed any wash out yet. one more thing the trail from parkurst rd to barto hill should be open this weekend please follow signs trail has been changed , respect the land owner or stay home, you will jeopardize the trail for closure.

three feet of snow, hard going with sleds, getting groomers out to try breaking trail without the drag, still having problems

# posted by Salisbury Ridgerunners Trail Groomers @ 2/15/2007 05:22:00 PM

snowmobilers were out in great numbers yesterday, we had a full house yesterday , with lots of new comers. trails were excellent yesterday morning if you were there early enough. groomers were out last night went C4 TO MILITARY RD TO NORWAY AND ALSO C4 TO STRATFORD, SCANDIC WAS OUT DOING TO SALISBURY CTR AND BACK TO THE CLUB 3 TIMES TO HELP OUT WITH THAT TRAIL. we did get a couple inches of snow last night, but we are getting powdered snow and it's not good snow to be groomed, it does not pack good, like a wet packy snow. we were asked at the club why we don't groom during the day, it's because too much traffic and to many near crashes with the groomer, at night they can see the lights and much safer. we do have a black board on the wall at the club with the trail report of trail condions and when last groomed, check it out as you exit the club house near the juke box.

We are under a snow watch for lake effect snow of six inches overnight. It is snowing now and the watch goes till 6 am tomorrow. Hopefully we will get much more than that but we are happy to see it snowing either way.
