getting packed and are now starting to be groomed with drags. Trail grooming will be
ongoing today and this weekend.
12/20/07 The trail from the clubhouse to Schoodic lake has been groomed several times. This weekend trail
grooming is planned for from Schoodic Lake to Deblois where it will connect in Deblois near the power plant. From
the power plant, ITS 81 has been groomed with the state groomer to Beddington. Beddington north to Gassebeius stream
has been groomed several times as well as the connector from deer lake and eagle lake across the 25-000 rd to the stud mill
rd. both are in excellent condition. Watch out for the large groomer in this area on Friday and Saturday night this
weekend (12/21 and 12/22). There will be no grooming activities in the Beddington area on December 24th and 25th. Note: There
are several sections of ITS 81 north of route 9 that are plowed roads with active logging, keep right and slow down,
. The mileage from the clubhouse to Deblois Rt 193 bridge crossing is approx 16 miles. and another 14 to the airline diner.
January 8, 2008, With the two storms we got recently we managed to get a good trail base and had some excellent
riding this past weekend. However with temperatures above freezing since Sunday and spring like temperatures today,
no trail grooming is being conducted and trail conditions are deterioating fast.
