    March 1, 2010
    Trail Conditions: Fair
    Snow Cover: 18-20 + inches
    Early a.m. temp is 20 degrees, rising to a high of 30 with overcast skies and possible snow. The trails
    have been great, but icy in early morning, they are flat and hard. The heavy traffic, full sun and warm
    temps over the past week has taken its toll. We got an inch+ of new snow overnight, with a promise of
    more to come, but we need a good snowfall to freshen things up, and snow is forecast. This is the time of
    year that we get some heavy snows, hope it proves true this year.
    A WORD OF CAUTION: PLEASE BE A GOOD SNOWMOBILE AMBASSADOR. THERE HAVE BEEN A FEW
    RIDERS NOT RESPECTING PRIVATE PROPERTY, TRESSPASSING AND SPEEDING DOWN VILLAGE
    STREETS AND SNOWMOBILE ROUTES (MARKED WITH GREEN & WHITE SIGNS) CAUSING
    COMPLAINTS TO BE FILED. THE COUNTY SHERRIF HAS CARS & SNOWMOBILE PATROL OUT
    WATCHING. FOLLOW THE RULES & ENJOY A SAFE RIDE.
    Groomers work their magic every night and every morning riding is GREAT.
    Expect the trails to get beat up some by late afternoon, but they have been holding up remarkably well
    with the good ice base.
    MOST WET AREAS & LAKES ARE NOW SAFELY FROZEN, BUT NOT ALL, AND MANY LAKES HAVE
    LOTS OF SLUSH, SO BEWARE AND CHECK LOCAL CONDITIONS!
