Default Moultonboro snowmobile trails

Are the Moultonboro trails open? Is it ok to go on the Red Hill section or is it better to wait? Thank you.

ITD, suggest going to moultonborosmc.org . They have conditions and restrictions, plus other info too lengthy for me to type on my tablet. Hope this will help.

I feared that. We got 3.5 inches over here in Alton Bay, measured as I got ready to clean it off in the mid-late morning. By two in the afternoon, it had self-compressed down to about 2 inches as we went for a snowshoe hike. Yes, we need good snow.

Default Bummed out

Before last year I hadn't ridden the sleds in many years.

Last year I got them all cleaned up and ready! No snow. No trails down here.

OK, I figured THIS year we would HAVE TO do better. Again they are all set and we DID get to go on a 2 hour ride a couple weeks ago. Then rain, no snow. Trails closed.

Unfortunately I am going in for a hip replacement Feb. 22 so I will have to pull and summerize the sleds before then.

Soooooo I am hoping for a couple feet of snow in the next week. I can dream.

I doubt that is going to happen, but if you believe the computer models, it seems we are in for a major pattern shift to colder weather and a more stormy pattern at the start of next month. With any luck that will happen and you're get a good ride in before your hip replacement.

Good luck with that, no doubt you'll be in for a long recovery, wish you much success and a doc with a steady hand

You are wishing for warm weather, that's great. But do you think the right place to do that in the forum would be in a thread discussing snowmobile trails?

I hope you have smarter snowmobilers on the north side of the lake. Just had some bright light go behind my house on the "D" trail in Alton. It's been sleeting and raining here all day. What a lack of respect for the trail system.
