Red Hill Closed temporarily 1-30-2014

VitaBene · 01-30-2014, 10:14 AM

We are going to shut the Red Hill Trail down temporarily until we receive some more snow. It is extremely icy up there and we have had reports of snow machine accidents (and seen the plastic pieces and parts).

It looks like we may receive some snow Saturday night and then we are in a favorable storm pattern for a while (saw a potential bigger storm for Tuesday PM).

I saw that forecast and sure hope you and it are correct! Machine has been on the trailer way to long.

Where is the Red Hill Trail? Which Club maintains it?

Red Hill is part of the Moultonboro Snowmobile Club Trail System. It starts across from the Village Kitchen on RT25 and connects to Squam Lake on the back side. There multiple routes up and over Red Hill.

One of the BEST Trails anywhere.

A shame to close Red Hill. I was on it Tuesday and thought it was pretty good, except for a few spots, but then I was the only sled I saw. It would not stand up to weekend traffic, or those without spiked treads. Let's all sing the Heikki Lunta Snowdance Song

Wednesday snow might be enough to open it?
