Looks like a number of SledNHers and crew are heading to the OVSC today, along with a number of folks who rode yeaterday and are coming back today (judging by the emails I've replied to on the OVSC website).

Remember to check out the Groomer Rodeo over at White Lake State Park today! And don't forget to stop by the Canoe King and say hello to John (ckf) and Mitch...

As the website reports, trails were groomed Thursday night and out past Page Hill heading towards the James Pond Loop conditions are quite good with elevation.

I've gotta stop at the Canoe King first and throw on a new pair of C & A skis that John ordered for me then I hope to see a lot of you out there....

If you want to enjoy a fun 50+ mile ride, you only need to bring your sleds and launch from the Canoe King or White Lake State Park this weekend. Enjoy Saturday's Groomer Rodeo over at WLSP then take a leisurely ride on our trails.

Conditions improve with elevation and much of the system was freshly groomed Thursday night!

Once again, congratulations Matt & enjoy your new ride...

Due to poor trail conditions, the Tamworth Dog sled Races which take plce across the OVSC trail system have been cancelled, The annual races were to be held this upcoming weekend on the 28th & 29th.

If possible, the races will be rescheduled for later in the season.

In conjunction with the Bureau of Trails, the OVSC will be opening our gates this morning.

That said, we must be brutally honest with potential riders of our system. There is not enough snow in our system to pack or pan, let alone even think of grooming. Snow cover ranges from several inches to maybe a half a foot or so in upper elevation. Many stumps, rocks and sticks protrude from the thin cover.

Additionally if you choose to ride the rail bed on Corridor 19 you need to be aware that rails, switches and spikes remain fully exposed in many stretches and you will most likely damage your sled if you insist on riding those areas.

We are being realistic. No matter how we spell out the conditions there are folks already riding our trails with the gates closed.

If you really need to scrath the itch we would ask that you stay within the confines of the White Lake State Park area and give our trails a lttle more time for additional snow and freezing temperatures.

We will update our website later on today for those coming up for the Holiday weekend!

Thanks.....
