Aroostook County Snowmobile Trail Report – February 4
Four snow storms over the last ten days have done wonders for the snowmobile trail systems across northern Maine.
Hopefully more of this is going to be the norm for the next two months fingers crossed. Mother Nature has been helping the county, for the past couple of days. All projects are reporting excellent conditions.
Remember that we live and recreate around a working forest, while most of us take this for granted. There are many people that make a living working in the areas that we play in. Let’s please use caution and common sense when entering logging operations, there have been many close calls with snowmobilers and logging equipment.
