One of the major tasks facing any snowmobile club is the preparation of the trails for winter riding.  Each year the trails must be cleared of brush and blowdowns.  Inevitably some trails need to be re-routed due to landowner request or new construction in the area.  Bridges often need to be repaired or replaced.  This takes a considerable amount of work and it usually falls on the shoulders of a few individuals.

 

If you ride the trails in the winter, all this preparation work is invisible to you.  Trust us, there is a lot of work that has been done to give you an enjoyable ride.  Please give one or two Sunday mornings of your time to the club to help get the trails ready this fall.

 

Trail work is done every Sunday in November.  We meet at All Season's Automotive at 8 AM and head to the work locations.  Please check back at this site for details on work to be done this year.  If you see fit to clear trails near your home on your own, please do so and give our President, Scott a call on 841-6253 or our Trailmaster, Marty a call on 441 5264 to let them know what you have already completed.

 

Your assistance will be greatly appreciated.

Trail Changes made in 2009

Major bridge work has been done on bridges over Davis Stream.

 A new trail has been cut replacing the old Wavus trail from Damariscotta Lake to Dyer Long Pond.  The new trail passes through a residental area near Damariscotta Lake, so please stay on the trail and respect landowner properties.  The trail no longer rides the length of Powderhorn Road as there are new driveways and roads which prevent access to Dyer Long Pond.  Instead, the trail cuts into the woods and rides a  logging road to Dyer.

A new trail has been cut replacing the trail which crossed County Fair Farms between the North Mountain Road and Rt 32.  Once across Rt 32, the new trail proceeds through the woods to the old apple orchard picking up the existing trail.
