Kabetogama Area Trails Report

[guts]

Yesterday we had nearly 4" of new snow, heavy stuff that is packing well. We had nice smooth trails earlier on and they groomed ahead of this recent snow, so grooming them up now should make good trail conditions. The Lakes, within Voyageurs National Park, will finally have at least a little bit of snow to work with.

If we get any of the weekend snow forecast we should be in great shape for a while, guts

Great news Guts!! A bunch of us are heading up to Ash River a week from today. Do you know what resorts are open on Kab for pit stops?

[let it snow]

Sandy Point, Kec's Kove, Arrowhead, Rocky Ledge, Red Pine on Kab are open and Frontier, Ash Ka Nam and Ash Trail Lodge on the river.

Kab got another 6" of snow between Friday and Sunday and it's snowing now on 2/26. Should make for some happy sledding!

Voyagire Lodge on Crane Lake also is open for lodging and great meals. Try the prime rib on Sat nights best you will ever have. Happy riding!!!

I hear Trails End and the VRT are closed for the season due to frozen septic tanks? Any truth to these rumors??

I heard the same thing but I'm not sure if it's true.

Just spoke to the VRT owners - they are NOT froze up AND they are open ('cept for Wednesdays). Trails End is froze up but they are also open, 'cept for Wednesdays.

Just got back from riding the Kab area trails. Took Woody's Trail to Gateway for gas then the Arrowhead to Ray, back to the Arrowhead to the Hagermann (toward I Falls), onto the Rat Root River to Black Bay on Rainy. Even the portage back to Kab was good! Kab Lake was great - rode the north shore to Ash River. That portage was good also. Stopped at AKN and watched the Weather Channel and enjoyed the bar chat about the upcoming snow! Back to Kab on the Bill Morgan and Arrowhead Trails....all good, all groomed! Looks like a great month of March for riding! Please watch for the pressure ridges on the lakes tho - they can be sneaky!

Oh yeah - Pine Aire on Kab is open too - sorry I missed them earlier!
