Thats right! I'm not kidding either, dropped the sleds off at Canoe King this morning and headed out towards Whites Lake and into the Wonalancet area today. Went up the fire tower, saw a bunch of dog sleds racing around and had a great time. Trails were great! Nice job guys! Then we headed up to the summit of mount shaw, which also has been groomed and was very nice minus a bit a logging about 10 miles up. The only boney part was the rail bed, but we just chugged along at about 10 miles an hour and had no problems. When all was said and done we had logged about 70 miles on great trails. And the best part was.....I didn't have to trailer 3 hours north to find good conditions to ride in. So stop making excuses and get out there! Thank you OVSC!

Just got back from grooming out there, and you are not lying. It's WAY better than I would have guessed. And now it's even better!

Several of us went for a quick 50 mile ride on OVSC trails last night after the club meeting. It was a little rough getting out to the James Pond / Bowles trail intersection but coverage was pretty good. There just isn't enough snow to completely fill in the trails where the trail base is rough. Once out to the intersection, the riding was great! Thanks for grooming OT!

We did a 26 mile family ride today up to the Great Hill Fire Tower and around James Pond loop, the condition's were fantastic. A big thank you to the groomer operator's who worked their magic with the little bit of snow we have had, I still can't believe how good it was. With a little luck, maybe mother nature will cooperate with some snow, with the warmer day's and higher sun angle it won't last long.
