Trail Conditions
Trail Report 12/10/13
Monday brought a general 1-3 inches of white paint to ilsnow land. It’s not enough to kick things off, but the north end of Perkins Clearing Road had a thick icy base to it when I passed by on Saturday to watch the Oak Mountain Hill Climbs in Speculator. It wouldn’t take a tremendous snow […]
