Moose Snowmobile Trail Reports for Thursday, February 9, 2023

There is nothing much new to report overall.

On the heels of some brutal cold temperatures, Mother Nature has kicked Old Man Winter to the curb, again; with another mild stretch of weather forecasted this week.

Although several trail systems remain open, it seems there are numerous sections that have developed thinner snow and base coverage.
