TO homewood:
KUDOS for riding shot gun in the groomer! I wish more people would take ride in the groomer to appreciate how much work goes in to the trails. There is a science to grooming, it's not just riding around. I personally enjoy grooming and have worked every trail in Moultonboro. If anybody would like to go for a ride next year, just let me know. We usually groom late at night or predawn.

Winopt.... I work on the lake and I also ice fish.... I drilled holes from Alton to spindle point when I was out yesterday and did some fishing. I talked to a few guys fishing around the lake and took a measurement of there fishing holes also. Trust me if I had some magic to determine the ice thickness just looking at it ide be a rich man ! If we don't warm up soon its going to be a late ice out. My thoughts are the 20th of April or latter !

Awesome job with the trails this year!!!! I rode over 1500 miles just out of my place in Moultonborough

I'm going to have over 2500 for the season. I was hoping to ride the lake this weekend and putz around, hopefully I will be able too. Awesome Job this season MSC!!!!!!

Thank you from all of the volunteers for your kind words. It is a big part of the reason we do what we do!!

Thanks Sluggo. I'm going to talk to an engineer buddy of mine and see if he can design an ap for it. Wouldn't be cool to point a device down and get a thickness? Someday!

Funny... years ago we rescued a guy that fell through the ice and I asked him what in the world was he thinking and he told me he had an ice meter that told him what the ice thickness was ! I still like drilling the hole ......
