Poo Man Posted February 2, 2018 Share Posted February 2, 2018 Heading to Dorset in a couple hours for boys sled trip. Looks like just north east of the tower is limited. Anyone been on the past couple days? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gobills Posted February 2, 2018 Share Posted February 2, 2018 Wondering the same thing. Hopefully tall pines can get the trails open to the lakes and hcsa opens the lakes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stoney Posted February 2, 2018 Share Posted February 2, 2018 According to MTH, Tall Pines will remain Red, the OFSC will not update the trail guide anyways until after the weekend, but they are heading out to see what they can do with the fluffy snow they received. Looks to be some decent snow over the weekend for that area, so I am sure the TP trails will be busy this weekend regardless....but it might be a wee bit icy under that fresh snow, so ride with care.

Old Sledder Posted February 2, 2018 Share Posted February 2, 2018 Yes I would plan on sledding somewhere else. Kawagama is staked however the trails won't likely open. ASC has limited yellows and likely will be in rough shape very quickly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Viperules700 Posted February 2, 2018 Share Posted February 2, 2018 No base any where really. Going to take a good dump early in week, when there is lower traffic to set it up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone been on the past couple days? The run north up to kearney should be good as its mostly logging roads and there was lots of hard base last sunday. Closer to kearney might have the odd rock/rough spot poking through but definately rideable. Even with the new snow, scratchers and studs would be a good idea. Its a short season get out and ride!

MTH is incorrect, the ITG is updated by the District, NOT the OFSC. Updates are done on a mandatory basis twice a week on Monday and Thursday. Additiional updates and status changes are done when necessary at the request of the clubs! The ITG is available for changes whenever the individual authorized by the district board receives the information and has access to the system.

The point is still though that you will likely not see an update over the weekend, you seem to rarely see one on a weekend anyways & usually see the updates during the week, as you mentioned, regardless of what mother nature drops or what the clubs do over the weekend. Otherwise it only makes sense that the clubs would so it anyways, why add another level to slow down the process. And I guess technically the clubs are the OFSC too....
