Fixed 1st Section of GPS Map

I was out on Wheelerville as well yesterday and saw the bent gate. I was there to track a piece of trail that the GPS tracker missed on the Groomer trip I made with Roy. I started at the Bucklin Trail and headed south from the gate. I only had to follow it for 1.5 …

I was up in Wheelerville this morning and the trails look really good! But I was wondering what happened to one of our gates? It looks like someone could have been hurt! There were parts of a sled there, I picked them up as to not have garbage on the trail. If any one has …

Trail Report February 23, 2013.

Dad and I groomed 10+ hours today. We groomed every thing except the trail to the parking lot as it still has thin snow coverage and it is steep and rocky. Things are looking much better than a couple of weeks ago! The only bad side is that there is a logger use our 4&7 trail …

Traction Bars

This is a new development for traction issues for the rubber track Tuckers. You put 5 on each front track as needed and take them off when …
