Spring Melt

May 7, 2018 Posted by Barry

I find this interesting, so I thought I would share.  From Scott, fresh off a tour of the property:

“In a nut shell, open, south facing land is largely snow free. Our trails, where packed, are 98% covered in snow. Some spots to the effect of +3’ of it. Tracks are without question the ONLY way to get around the property right now. Anything wheeled simply won’t cut it. If you go out, be VERY mindful of where water runs beneath the snow, as it has created cavities that will eat the machine without you knowing what has happened.  I had to turn around in a few locations today as conditions in watery spots were simply impassible or just not worth the risk.

 If anyone’s looking to get out – Telemark trail by far has the most consistent snow remaining on it – snowshoeing would be your best option.”
