About 25cm on the Whitman at marker 30. 18cm in the lower lying elevations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AC+YA Posted December 3, 2013 Share Posted December 3, 2013 Hi Dan, Paige and I will be seeing you soon by the looks of it. Thanks for all the info and I love the new Trailblazers page you designed. I was worried about all the washouts, but looks like the crew is working around them. Hope to do that off trail multi-lake to lake ride with you this season. Great job you do to promote and build your club! Take care. Scott Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dan-Senior Posted December 6, 2013 Author Share Posted December 6, 2013 Hi Scott and Ski, Jean at BlackCreek Outfitters said they got snow the entire day today. Looking at the Montreal River Radar, you could see it going right across from Superior. I suspect you guys will be riding up this way soon. I'd be out sledding this weekend, but my wife has me booked for a dance in Elliot Lake. Will send photos of snow updates from Elliot Lake when I get back.

Dan Hi Dan, Starting to think about Christmas Week and where to ride. Thanks for all the updates. Looking forward to seeing the brushed D201F and our first ride over to Elliot Lake from the Soo. I hope the logging has moved from the old D Trail area near Halfway. Take Care. Scott Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skidooboy Posted December 6, 2013 Share Posted December 6, 2013 i summerized them but, i need to do some pre-season stuff, clutch springs, shock service, check to see if the secondaries need replacement or rebuild (common on the M's), brake side bearings for the drive shafts (common on M's), replace hyfax, clean power valves, then clean up and polish. changing the a arms on mine to orange, and need to replace the right side lower panel (broken from rock/stump hit). about a full days work, or a little more for each sled. just making sure they wont let me down.

skidooboy Posted December 8, 2013 Share Posted December 8, 2013 lynne's sled is torn down, power valves cleaned, new hyfax on the skid. shocks are at the shop for service. just need the clutch parts, and and the shocks back, and i can put it together and clean it up, and polish. i'll tear mine down when my parts ALL arrive, and lynne's together. shooting for xmas or new years weekends, for both to be completed and ready to go.

Dan-Senior Posted December 9, 2013 Author Share Posted December 9, 2013 Hi Ski, Hope you get your sleds ready ASAP. We are now swimming in deep snow. Some locations at 20" (50cm) on the ground. Searchmont forecast is calling for up to another 12" possible (30cm) by Wednesay night. I'll be out sledding tomorrow. You have enough to ride this weekend.

Dan-Senior Posted December 13, 2013 Author Share Posted December 13, 2013 Here is what I have received for information and / or heard from Groomer operators: Sault Trailblazers and Aubrey Falls both are grooming / packing this weekend. Also heard that Wawa, Dubreulville and Spanish have been out already. I'm sure you will see their updates on Facebook. Here's some photos from Searchmont. They are gearing up for the big CSRA race this weekend. No shortage of snow. Photos courtesy of Searchmont Ski Resort. Dan *** UPDATE *** One of the Trailblazers Groomers left the Clubhouse this morning and is packing trail to Heyden today, this onward to Searchmont tomorrow.

Dan-Senior Posted November 27, 2014 Author Share Posted November 27, 2014 Sault Club Grooming This Weekend I am on the understanding the Club will have a groomer on the new D201F (95 mile trail) from Searchmont-To-Aubrey Falls this weekend or sooner, pending no unforseen issues.
