Larose Forest trail reports
We ran on the eastern trails this evening. They were fast, with a somewhat lightly chopped surface from the grooming, so not slippery, Concession 10 was hard packed, but a groomer had been by, so not slippery. I think skijor would be ok for reasonably competent skiers and/or slower dogs.…
I did a pass on eastern trails and they are ok. I also did a pass on the 11th. I will get them all done before Friday. – Nick
The race course was groomed, and in great shape: First Trail, Forest Boundary, 4th Trail to the ditches, JGL to the Deep Ravine turn, End Loop, Malamute Loop, ByPass and Concession 11 between those trails. They should still be good tomorrow, though hard and fast after freezing overnight, softer in…
The rest of Gun Club Loop and Concession 10 between the Swamp entrance and the new Gun Club entrance have been groomed. The 2019 trail map has been updated on the Larose Forest Trails page to include these trails. Gun Club and Swamp trail also had some additional trail maintenance,…
