New Grooming Routes ~ Updated 12/2009

The new Groomer Barn at #8 on M-77 means our grooming routes have changed! What that means to you? Well, it will mean much better conditions on the busiest trail to begin with! Trail #8 from #888 to M-77 will be groomed twice every night, which will make the trail hold up better with the high level of traffic seen in that section. The next change is that we are no longer grooming from the staging area at the Adams Trail & M-77 to #88 until later into the season. We do this for easier access to the trails and the safety of riders.

East Route = Trail #8 East from the Groomer Barn all the way to within about 4 miles of Rainbow Lodge and back. Groomed starting at dusk.

West Route = Trail #8 West, then #89 along the lakeshore and the log slide road, then back onto #8 at the west end of the Hurricane Truck Trail, south through the Kingston hills and plains to the Grade, then east on the Grade to the #88/#888 junction (Adams Trail and the Sunrise Landing Road) and back the way we came and into town before returning to the barn. Groomed starting at dusk.

North Route = Trail #8 West on the Hurricane Truck Trail turning around at the western junction with #89 and back to the Rhody Creek Truck Trail #888 then #88 east to M-77 and back the way we came to the barn. Groomed starting at dusk.

South Route = Trail #8 East from the Groomer Barn to Trail #443 then South to just south of the Hot Dog Stand at the intersection of Seney Trail #431. Then back North to #88 and west to M-77 and then turning around and going back to #443 north back to the barn.
