Faceman Posted February 20, 2019 Share Posted February 20, 2019 South of 21 is best described as hit and miss, wind blown fields and scratchy roads. This weekend will kill sledding s/of 21. Chesley west is closed, open last weekend and the trespassers killed it, dead. Permission gone, don't come back. Friend rode Wiarton north to the Tub, Wiarton to Ferndale was best not described but north of that great riding conditions. We're riding a fine line here.

volunteer2 Posted February 20, 2019 Author Share Posted February 20, 2019 Thanks as well. Ya it's just unbelievable that D9 is not getting the snow like the past. Always said that if we don't get snow in D5 at least D9 is a short trailer ride. Still trying to figure if Durham may be worth a try. A buddy is to call me. He lives there.

Durham Club posted on Facebook that the groomer has been out the last 2 nights and would be out again tonight but expect that to be the last until cold temps return. They said limited snow but making the best of it. With the sun the last couple days, I would think the road sections are toast. I was planning to head out tomorrow but the freezing rain is now forecast to start around noon and continue through the afternoon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't get south of Miller lake, but as your friend said, that area was great. Lots of snow and the trail was holding up very well. For the most part, riders seemed to be very well behaved. We rode up to the Tub on Sunday from Little Eagle Harbour, a great low paced ride. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackstar Posted February 22, 2019 Share Posted February 22, 2019 Sauble and Port Elgin is showing closed now. I fail to see how todays weather would have made a difference in conditions. Anyone know why its red? Hanover Neustadt closed their trails too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's Thursday... if they don't update their trail status on Thursday the default is red. Check again tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is what I'm thinking. TWN says 5 for Saturday, 7 for Sunday and 15 mm of rain. That trail base hag better be 2 feet thick if they hope to save it. I have plans to run from Chesley up to Hepworth and over to Sauble tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We should not be grooming or riding. Chesley opened Sat and closed the west on Sunday night due to revoked permission. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The rest of Chesley still shows Limited. Guess I'll detour east towards Owen Sound then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
