Larose – March 20
Eastern trails are groomed with the 10th conc to get to the south entrance of gun club. 10-11 and the deep ravine are also done. We will fix moose for the week end but its not usable right now. – Nick
Larose – March 15
Despite warm conditions and sticky snow, I was able to groom western trails today. I did not groom the big gully cause I thought I might get stuck… Conditions are pretty good but there are some ruts from a sled that ran yesterday that I wasn’t able to erase everywhere. Enjoy! – Steve
Larose – March 13
There have been horses all the way down Concession 11, so deep prints on the east side – problematic if one wants to turn east on any of the trails (Bypass. 10-11, Malamute). With the new snow you may not see them, but they could cause you trouble so keep your…
Larose – March 9
All western trails are done including deep ravine. – Nick
Larose – March 1
Just back from a skijor and conditions are getting marginal to ski now, but sleds shouldn’t be a problem on the western trails. Parking lot Bypass is good. I looked down Moose and it doesn’t look great, but hard to tell without going out on it. Main concession is rutty and…
Larose 8 (or 4, or 5?)
There is still snow on the western trails, not ideal but workable. With the current temperature forecast short distance and smaller teams are a safer approach. I think we can still hold a 4 dog, 4 or 5 mile race on Sunday. The parking lot is currently mixed gravel/ice, so we would…
Larose – February 24
The trails were solid with granular surface today. Nick re-groomed the heavily travelled trails before leaving, so for those of you crazy enough to go out early in the morning before the freezing rain, the surface should be hard and fast until 9 am, especially with a little fresh snow…
Larose 8 – Postponed to March 4
We still have a freezing rain forecast for tomorrow morning so we will postpone the event to March 4th. There is still a good base of snow at Larose, so hopefully enough of it will survive this week’s temperatures. • Dana
Larose 8 – Not looking good…
The forecast still has freezing drizzle from 9 am to noon on Sunday. I suspect we will have to postpone the event. The group will decide today at the Forest Day. There will be a post later this evening confirming. Possible reschedule depending on the weather – details TBD.
Larose Forest Day is a GO
Nick is scratching the parking lot now and a sand truck is coming in to make it safe for the visitors. He has groomed the trails. They are granular snow, fast, but he thinks it will work, especially as the day progresses and the warmth makes them a bit softer.…
