3/31/09 - 6:45 a.m. - Well, this is the last day of the official season but there is a lot of good rideable snow in the woods. As of midnight tonight though, the trails will be closed and seasonal roads will be open to wheeled vehicles again. You die-hards will have to trailer out to staging areas to get in those last rides of the year. Most of the businesses are shutting down or cutting back their hours. The town will be quiet until warm weather returns and the snowbirds slowly find their way home. With that in mind, we want to thank all the Sno-Trails supporters this season. The list is too long to mention everyone and too easy to miss someone so I'm not even going to try; you know who you are. Thank You! We also want to wish Cathy and Dan from TASA our best in their new endeavor/adventure next season. It's been great and I, for one, will miss working with you!

We haven't groomed since the 21st due to warm weather and heavy snow melt last week. We lost over 3 feet of base on the trail into town and the rest were getting pretty thin. The guys were barely able to skim the surface and reported lots of water holes, mud and very icy corners on that last run. After that, we had enough fuel to fill the groomers and leave a little in the tanks in case we had to go out to rescue vehicles or cut fallen trees which is just where we hoped to be at the end of the season. Then the temperatures dropped and we got 5 or 6 inches of snow over the weekend with only 3 days left in the season. It was a tough decision, to groom or not to groom. We didn't want to bring in another tanker of fuel only to have it sit all summer collecting moisture, besides we'd have had to order it last week. And there was the heightened risk of damaging equipment with all the ice. We checked with clubs around the area and they were not reporting that they were going back out either. After considering all the factors, we decided to leave the groomers parked. Now, it's time to wrap things up with all the DNR paperwork and pay the last of the bills. Till next year....See Ya!
