Post Deep Snow

The lakes region received about 2 feet of snow during the past week. We went riding today and found a lot of terrain variation. The groomers had not hit many of the trails around Laconia, but they were pretty packed by riders. Many of the trails have snow buildup on the edges, so watch for tipping.

There is a huge rut on the trail by the Weirs as you go around the General Store, I put the sled on its side going around that one. In addition, the trail from Waukewan over to Meredith has several washouts. That trail is pretty trecherous, I would avoid it for the moment.

The snow on the lake is about 18 inches deep and you will bog if you stop unless you ride in the tracks. In addition, it is difficult to keep control unless you are in the tracks.

It was an interesting day of riding, don't get to portage across too many trail washouts around here.
