Hurley Area Snowmobile Conditions
1.25.2023
The White Thunder Rider trails are mostly Good to Excellent at this time.
Groomer volunteers have been out regularly and even with the continued high traffic, the cooler temperatures have helped cement things in. Watch for a small area marked with cones along South Island Lake Road (trail 13) where we have tried to fill an active water area once again. A change in trail position onto the road is planned there today. Also slow down and watch for equipment and icy corners in logging areas. The trail 17 corridor continues to be groomed daily, and several sections multiple times, but this sugar snow just doesn’t set up as nice as the woods trails.
Ride Safe, Ride Right, Watch for Groomers, Stay on the Trails, and Use Hand Signals.
United we trail!
Active Logging areas that NEED CAUTION:
Trail 2 South of Old 10 Road
Trail 6 Sullivan Firelane
Trail 15 Westbranch Rd short section
Trail 17 Crossing North of DuPont Road
**Remember that the loggers have the right of way and you need to stay clear of their equipment or trail closures will result.
ATV and UTV trail users should not be on any trail when temperatures are above freezing.
