Its currently 29 degrees and sunny. Our 2012 trail system is 100% open with an icy base covered by snow. Trail conditions range from good through the majority of town trails south of lake Francis and very good/great on most logging roads to the north. Please obey all signs, there have been many complaints from F&G and the loggers saying people are not obeying the no snowmobile signs, or the shared road signs. Enforcement has been out and will be ticketing voilators, if the rules are not followed we will lose these trails as we are only guests on the property. Perry stream road is CLOSED above the Ramblewood junction 158 and we have built a trail to the side of the road between jct 341 and 158 please stay on this trail and off the logging road. Magalloway rd. is shared in from rte 3 to almost the south Bay junction 480 in this area you need to stay off the road and on the trail that we have built to the side. Riding is best in the higher elevations where there is a deeper snow pack. This Saturday is the annual firemans poker run which begins at the Colebrook firestation , through Pittsburg and ends in Beecher Falls Vt. this is a great event for a great cause. Please stay tuned to the website for future updates.

I did a nice 66 mile loop this afternoon with a friend. We went up Perry Stream West, cut across Roaring Brook trail to Depot Camp, then rode the Hall Stream trail down to 146. We went over Shatney Mt. to 20 east around Murphy Dam and south of Lake Francis. Stayed on 20 to 5 north, then 139 back to 1st Conn lake area. Other than some bumps around Youngs store (to be expected) the trails were all in great shape. I expected 20 south of Lake Francis to be rough but it was VERY nice. We didn't see 10 other sleds the whole way. Saw at least 10 deer between Shatney and the village though.
Tomorrow should be even better!
