Moose Snowmobile Trail Reports for Wednesday, January 10, 2024
Another riding season is now officially here, and boy it’s been a slow start.
There are clubs throughout the Tug Hill Region and beyond that have started to groom the trails, but be warned of likely debris from a strong wind event that impacted much of New York State Tuesday night.
As a result from Tuesday's wind and rainstorm, there are numerous clubs that have temporarily shut down their trail systems.
For any trails that are open, riders are warned to use extra caution and look out for any fallen trees, limbs and other debris.
In the meantime if you’re up to ride, here some of the latest reports from out on the trails:
Barnes Corners Sno-Pals: No grooming yet.
