The Line Trail 19

06:00 AM - January 05, 2023

Good morning from Bathurst. It is -10. The Nepisiguit Lodge is now open for food & gas. Take a drive up to see the newly renovated lodge. We think it is beautiful.

The #2 groomer went down the line as far as Big River and beyond on Trail 19 towards Bathurst yesterday. We got as far as the Little River Bridge on Trail 19 as we need more snow, but it will be prepped as far as we can get. Last night the #1 groomed out of Rogers Lake on trail 23, 507, trail 22 to the 301/22 then turned back to Red Pine Shelter. From there, Francois groomed. Piston Alley to Popple Depot then back to Rogers Lake.

Today Ron is going to concentrate on the 23 between the Lodge and highway 430. We came through on Tuesday and there are many places to fix. Club #1 will perform some of is magic as there is not much to work with.

Went across 503 to Simpsons Fields 5 or 6 minor water cuts but brook was high(managed to cross on pallet’s. from Simpson field up to park on 19 great until you cross 180 then very scratchy to Hazelton hut.
