Some fresh snow north and west of town. Trails are better as you get away from town. Use caution on all trails and water crossings. Groomer may be out as conditions allow.
The warm weather has taken a lot of snow away. Crossing rivers and creeks is not recommended. Grooming is done for the year and trail pass sales have discontinued. There is still some snow on trails from Eagle River Staging Area. Use caution on all trails and ride at your own risk.
Summit Trail to Summit Shelter and Goodwin Lake Trail were groomed this week. Also, the Golden Triangle Trail from Whitecourt to Virginia Hills Road was groomed. Grooming will continue as long as the conditions allow. Trails are in good condition.
Trails to the south of Whitecourt are icy and quad traffic has caused many ruts, use extreme caution. Remember that the trails are for snowmobile use in the winter, not wheeled vehicles. All the money and time spent grooming for sleds is destroyed when wheeled vehicles go on the trails.
279 riders participated on Saturday and 208 on Sunday. The trails held up very well even with the low snow levels. Thanks to all the volunteers, sponsors, and checkpoint people who helped to make the Rally a success. The raffle sled was won by Randy Matthews of Whitecourt. Congratulations and good for you!
