North shore snow

[Walleyehooker]

Looks like the north shore is getting a little snow. Maybe LoonASEA will keep us posted and let us know when we can take a ride to the Trestle

I will keep ya posted !!! Not enough snow yet but its cooling down to freeze the low spots on the trails 

[LoonASea]

Well its gotten cold enough to freeze the low lying wet spots on the trails ,,,But still not enough snow in the local area to ride the trails ,,, Some snow in the forecast but we could use a nice 8+ inch dump to get things started

Hopefully we will be riding soon.

Well it's good to freeze up the river crossings, swamps and low spots before they get a ton of snow on them anyway.

I hate surprises!

5 3/4 inches so far here in Hermantown and still coming down ,,,, the snow in the forecast for friday should be a good start to the grooming season

Unfortunately most area's outside of the Duluth airport area got less. Only 3 inches in Dos Harbors and 2" at my place outside Cloquet.

Gonna take alot more to cover those rocks on the NSST, but at least it should be starting to freeze down with this cold.  Need to get the swamps frozen down good before grooming can start.  

 

I did take a short ride last Saturday, had my niece and nephew at the house for an early Xmas.  Rode my trail over towards the GIA trail but could only get half way there. Broke thru one water hole and the swamp was still way too wet to get thru.  I did get 2 miles on tho

This cold snap coming up this weekend should take care of the swamps and ice areas, then we just need some Snow!

Lets hope for 8+ inches here on Friday. Might get to take a ditch ride this weekend.

Forecast for the Duluth area,,, Christmas day is looking promising ,,,5-8 according to weatherunderground,,,,I may have to get a few miles on monday if that holds up

Hope some snow drops somewhere. I would hate to have to drive out west just to go for a ride. Half our snow has melted again down here like usual and was more like spring than winter the last 2 days. My sled has been ready to go for 2 months now
