Moose Snowmobile Trail Reports: Friday, February 3, 2023

Wow… Mother Nature sure wasn’t kidding around with this cold snap.

With wind chill factors, the National Weather Service is warning of temperatures into early Saturday afternoon that could range between 30 and even 50-degrees below zero. WOW.

If you’re up riding, be sure to be extremely careful; these temperatures are potentially deadly if you end up stranded.

Still no blockbuster snowfall, but enough here and there to keep groomers active. Several trail systems remain open and sled traffic has been steady.
