I’m not sure where to start here this morning, but let us start with Trail 23 to Serpentine. From Nepisiguit Lodge through Rogers Lake, trail is good to go, Rogers Lake to Governor’s excelent, Governors to Serpentin, I’m calling this good, because Mickey is still on the trail at...

The three groomers are on the move this morning. Ron was out from the Nepisiguit Lodge yesterday and he reported that even though there is not much snow in places, the grooming went very well. Nine Mile East Rd (Trail 23) where it was ploughed came out as very passable as he worked...
Update: Ron and his crew got the heater repaired in the #1 unit early this morning and Mickey is off to Serpentine. Should be a long day for him, but not too cold today with Temps hovering near zero. Troy is out of Rogers Lake with Big Blue and will do the 22. Next update will be tonight. BTW Governors will be...
Read MoreUpdate: Two groomers are “back at the Barn” and the #1 is making its way back to Rogers Lake from Serpentine. I feel for Micky as he has been in the groomer since 7.30 this morning and he is only 1 / 4 the way baack from Serpentine. We tested the waters from the Lodge to the Atantic Host and will return back to...

We moved the third groomer up to Nepisiguit and we’ll attempt running out of the Lodge Area to Nine Mile East Rd and maybe up the ditch as that road was ploughed earlier. The #1 is on its way to Serpentine and Big Blue after an electrical fix is up towards Popple Depot. Ron is...

We could have a snow dusting on the weekend. Both groomers were out yesterday; however, the New Holland developed an alarm half way to Popple Depot and although there were no codes, we didn’t want to take a chance, so we will look at it in the morning. The #1 completed Trail 22...

Ron and his crew will be working the trails today; this time with two groomers. Since the trails are not normal being so hard, Ron feels that day work is the way to go as it is easier to see all the cement like moguls and by working it slowly, he feels we could have a 100 Km product...

-10 in Bathurst and feels like -20 with the wind. Ron will give me a full report tonight on the state of grooming. He is going to do some groomer trail testing today out of Rogers Lake on Trail 23, maybe 507 and 22. I imagine the trails are rock hard and bumpy after all this crap. The...
Just had a long talk with Ron on the trails. Trail bed is extremely hard, but if we keep working it slowly, he feels we could have a 100 Km product for the weekend. It is very slow going with the groomer as the moguls are harder than the knobs of hell plus hard on equipment. He only groomed about 15 Km of...
