slomo Posted March 5, 2011 Share Posted March 5, 2011 Pretty good snowfall in Parry Sound area tn drive up Friday evening. At my place (Waubamic) 3 to 4 inches on the ground. Plenty of lube on trails. Rain is forecast for tomorrow, but if it turns to snow or ice pellets, Sunday might be a day to get some riding in around here.

Faceman Posted March 5, 2011 Share Posted March 5, 2011 The leadership of the Board must be away. I can't believe this one got left alone so long....first it was " a good dump in Parry Sound"!!!!! and then it was " a little drizzle" Memories of "wenailem1" two years ago, right after he abducted the green dragon.

slomo Posted March 5, 2011 Author Share Posted March 5, 2011 Well, it is now 5 pm Saturday and no rain has fallen. At least a foot of new snow in the last 24 hours. Very stiff and hard to move with snowblower. Possibility exists, judging by WN 2 week long term forecast, for sledding for a couple of weeks including March break. Sorry can't upload pictures. Dialup. Can't read OFSC trail conditions either!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wildbill Posted March 6, 2011 Share Posted March 6, 2011 Will the seguin be groomed to the info centre, want to launch from there any info would be great. It's suppose to cool off this evening We will likely groom tomorrow at some point it was groomed on Wednesday so it should not be too bad. There are some bare spots and with the flowing water I need to remind you to be vigilant as there maybe issues out there. Right now there is so much water in the snow it will just clump in the drag instead of flowing as soon as it is right we will be grooming. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You gave us a clue about what kind of hazard to look out for! Can't do that now, can we?

How did you find a post from a year ago?? ha ha - I would say it's a couple of weeks at least until the larger lakes approach anything close to useful ice. Some of the smaller ones are frozen over - there are even really premature sled tracks on one close to here, but I wouldn't be out on them yet. (located close to Tim Horton camp Lorimer Lake Rd.)

Defiantly has been a very mild start. Might be the warmest December on record overall. It is suppose to warm up again next week. Might be early feb before the ice is thick enough.
