I knew there was.......

something else I wanted to put in the last post. Sorry about the McCauley summit and trail cams being down. It seems just lately when ever we get R the sigianl is lost to the summit. I have some equipment here that I'm hoping is going to fix it. I just haven't gotten a break to go and install it yet.

Well we woke up this morning to the same thing we did on Friday the 18th....the dreaded R word. It looks like it's going to be the same thing all over again. Warm, R and then back down to well below freezing by tonight. So like always it's wait and see. We are getting into that time of the year when it's a roller coaster ride each week with the weather. March can have some of the best trail riding of the year you just have to pick and choose where you go.

2-26-2011 Old Forge Trail Report

It's 4:30 as I am writing and the temp is 21 yesterday it was 20 at this time. We had snow most of the day today and I'd give it around 4" of new snow. The base in the front yard is back up to the 2' mark again and is hard a rock. I'm starting to see a few people return from their day of riding and they are the ones that left first thing this morning.

In the video I said about last Monday and it was two Mondays ago the we had the short warm up.

2-25-2011 Old Forge Trail Report

At 5:30pm we still have light snow in the air and I'd give it a good half a foot or more for today. All depends on where you are and what you got. Talked with one person from Inlet this afternoon and they said there was close to a foot up there.

We have some fun events coming up in the next few weeks:

Mar. 5 USCC Cross Country Snowmobile Race
Mar. 5 Empire State Snowshoe Racing Association Championship
Mar. 12 & 13 SnoFest 2011

One of the guests had a mishap on the lake today. After last weeks short warm up the lakes are shifting and she went off the side of an ice heave that was the jump side and didn't have a very good end result. But thank goodness she didn't hit it in the other direction as it could on been worse......a solid wall of ice. The sled doesn't look all that great and she is lucky she wasn't hurt more than being stiff.
