There were a couple of trucks down Moose trail that have made a big mess in the wet spots. Nick would love if we could go out and manually flatten it, so he can safely drive on it to groom. If some people could stick around after the Poker Run…
Poker Run Saturday 9:30 registration – Though the Friday forecast is less than stellar, we think the freshly groomed trails will hold for the Poker Run on Saturday morning. Registration at 9:30. Please check back before leaving home, as the weather is pretty marginal, so we may have to make last…
The Anne Melrose Poker Run has been postponed until next Saturday December 15 due to trail conditions. Sorry Folks!
