-5 in Bathurst with a light snow falling. I kept monitoring the rainfall and precip yesterday and it didn’t amount to anything. I went out last night and it was as though a paving machine dropped a 1 inch layer of white asphalt over everything, not great for automobiles, but it would...
With almost two days rest the groomers will be out tonight. Should be an awesome week of sledding in the Bathurst and surrounding communities. Weather looks great going forward.

-7 here in Bathurst this morning and there will be freezing rain later this morning and into the evening followed by about 5 cm of snow for 24 hours. They are calling for up to 10mm and hopefully that number stays where they are estimating. Just afraid to see trees bending into the...

Safety Message Stay on the right side, especially in corners.
80 to 90 % of our trails are of the wide variety here at Nepisiguit (20ft), but there are areas that are not so wide. In this day and age with so many riders on the trails, we still have people taking corners on the opposite side of the trail. I’...
Update #2 2.30 PM The #1 just left the shop after its service. It is grooming from East
Bathurst to the Atlantic Host, then back to Nepisiguit and on to Rogers Lake,
then an Operator change and heading west on Trail 23. Will let you know in
the morning what is taking place.
