Mulleyville Snowmobile Club

Steve and I took a ride last night.  We came off wells parking lot and took a shot down to Walsh RD.  That trail to Walsh RD needs more snow cover on the bottom half and to freeze up but is passible.  There is a tree down that Steve feels the groomer will need to pull out as it is frozen under the snow.  The gate at the bottom is still closed as well.  The Wells RD trail was great except for the section from Schafer shanty until you take the left to go towards the fire tower.  Then once you take the right into the woods at spruce mountain it got a little rough again.  The normal rough stuff.   Some open wet spots and rocks here and there.  Once you are up top on the roads of C8 & S81 its great riding.  I don't know what the trail was like coming off Ormsbee, but I would recommend parking there if you want to ride.  We “broke” the trail to Lake desolation 1^st try.  Kudos to Steve for not getting us lost.  We need to try and keep noise down as the last house on the right before you cross the private road is right next to the trail.  He was watching Steve and I.  We found that trail in need of some serious work.  It is not a good trail as there are many rocks and frozen water holes with steep banks.  The good news is just that.  The water holes are frozen and were crossable which is a blessing.  By the house there are a few rocks that are going to make that trail a nightmare unless we do some fill work.  I would not recommend bringing a new sled or a girlfriend down that trail yet. We need to get the signs for the trail to the lake straightened out.  We took a rip down Tony Towers trail as well.  These next 14 days of cold I feel will do wonders to freeze everything up.  They are calling for a low of 1 degree tonight.  There was a fresh 2 to 3 ” of snow last night up top.  A few more of those and we should be in good shape.
