PISTON LAKE CRUISER Posted February 12, 2022 Share Posted February 12, 2022 I was out this morning. St. Clements trails ungroomed except for B203. Met Milverton groomer and Listowel groomer. Brussels and Moncton trails had been groomed last night. Cudos to the Milverton club. They have the least snowcover of anywhere I rode and there trails were the smoothest overall. They do a stellar job. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sledguy74 Posted February 12, 2022 Author Share Posted February 12, 2022 Managed 90+ miles this morning , east of Elmira seemed better to maryhill a lot more traffic that way Came home to frozen slush sidewalks, dump the salt to it hope the forecast warm up is not as bad as suggested 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was hoping to return to 2 feet of snow and Beautiful trails. It’s going to take another 3 weeks to get there now, just in time for big end of season melt 😂. I have a bad feeling we won’t see any open trails this winter. You off March break by any chance 🤔 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No frost in ground at all, which is very un usual. Peat moss wasn’t even frozen solid been stored outside. Maybe we can get a few rides in. I can go early Saturday morning if you heading out then 😎. Be lucky to get a few weekends now. Seems trails for a crap last week of feb in our area based on past posts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Supposed to warm up to 0 in Kitchener at 1 AM. Hopefully damp enough to set and stay. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drive way not even frozen with some water on it too. Not fun cleaning snow off today. Hopefully tomorrow cold weather will settle some frost into ground when it is packed down. 🙏 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The gates will hopefully need to be opened today as the groomer should be out panning to get the damp bottom snow packed down. If that happens it will freeze up and be the start of a real good base. Waiting means we may loose some of the dryer snow that came last evening and could possibly blow away given some strong winds. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Defiantly has some density to it. Thank-you for update and hopefully we can ride next week 😎. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those trails don’t take allot of snow usually. Ploughed fields are still very thin even if pre flattened. Another 6” this weekend will help. Snow squalls should come in behind this front with colder air this weekend 🙏 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
