Nick groomed: Moose Trail (decent shape); 10-11 Trail (rough near the snowmobile trail intersection); 11th Concession (good), End loop (very good); Malamute (good); Gun Club (one pass in the middle – passable). He will move the blocks to access Gun Club and groom that entrance only until there is enough…
The night run scheduled for December 22nd at the Larose Forest has been cancelled due to poor trail conditions and bad weather. Let’s hope that Mother Nature is in a better mood for 2019!
Although it looked good from Ottawa this afternoon, the forest got much more rain than the city today, and almost no snow. Best guess is that the trails might be “mushy but ok”, “hard and fast, though not ridiculously icy”, or possibly “crusty” for morning, depending on how cold it…
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…
Unfortunately conditions are not safe to run either a dryland or snow based race this Sunday – forcing us to cancel. We are hoping to move the event to late February or early March as a snow race. Keep an eye on the website/Facebook for updates! Thank you to everyone…
Yet again Mother Nature is not on our side – with warmer temperatures this last week and the forecasted rain and warm temperatures for Sunday the race has been postponed *tentatively* to Sunday December 9th. In hopes of being able to hold the race on the 9th we will need…
Unfortunately Mother Nature is not on our side – due to the forecasted rain overnight Saturday into Sunday and the potential for freezing rain, the Sunday November 25th race has been postponed to Sunday December 2nd. So long as we get a bit of snow next week, Nick is confident…
Note from Nick: We are currently logging off the eastern portion of the 10-11 trail. Work should be completed in two weeks.
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…
Nick says he thinks he may still be able to groom trails for the weekend, especially if we get a little snow on Friday, so keep posted and don’t make other plans just yet! • For Larose Forest day, we have all the trails around the parking area as the…
