Wednesday Night, 12/16
I went out last night (wednesday) and rode pretty much the whole system. Snowed like crazy the whole night. picked up about 4″ of Lake effect fluff.
The ormsbee side trails are in excellent condition for where we are with no grooming. They are not mid season groomed to perfection, but they are basically flat and pretty wide on the road trails. The woods trails are rough and rocky with some water but mostly frozen up. We ran the tucker around that side and the tracks packed it in good. In the woods trails you are goingto be dodging rocks and low snow where water has eaten away but i had a blast. If you are local and want to ride i would say go but be careful. If you aren’t local and can go to speculator or MRP or Tug Hill instead you’re probably better off.
The spruce side is decent too. If you take S87 across that’s real nice with just a few small water holes compared to S86 which is rough but ridable.
I scouted our re-open C8A trail to lake desolation too. That trail needs quite a bit of work to make it safe for all so hopefully by time the lake is frozen we’ll have some additional snow and can get the groomer through.
