Good evening every one, well it is hard to believe we are already at the tail end of December!! Tomarrow marks the first day of the winter break hear at HRSA. Our groomers are out making smooths trails, our Trail Attendants will be at both trail heads 7 days a week to welcome you and assist with parking, avalanche forecast, trail passes and memberships.
Down at the Ashton Brash trail we have been staging from the lower and upper lots. Groomer is out tonight so hoping to have an update if this has changed after some rain down low today.
For the Cooke and Mara Mt trails parking has now been moved to 10klm for Cooke and up to 18 on Mara. The first 2 klms on the Kingfisher are really muddy and lots of pot holes. After that is very slushy. There is no groomed trail yet on the south side of the main road up to either staging area. Plesde do not ride a snowmobile on the plowed road. As soon as we get snow we can start to build the trail. That's about it for now, we will be posting an update in regards to the logging on Sunday night! Keep doing that snow dance , look forward to seeing you all at the trails. Happy sledding!!!!
Cheers

Thursday December 10, 2020
Good evening all , tonight we have received some news about the LaForge Trail. It appears that our groomed Trail has been plowed off up to 18klm. We were not aware of any logging going on it that area, and we are just as upset about this as you the riders will be. So as of tonight the LaForge Trail is shut down.
There is to be no snowmobile traffic Monday thru Friday on this trail, we are working on getting more information about this situation and when we know more we will also let you know.
With that being said Cooke Creek will be the only trail open to ride as of now. Our collector will be on site tomarrow and on the weekend and will remind riders of the situation.
Thank you,
Robin
Tuesday December 8, 2020
Groomer update as we have been having a lot of people messaging the club wanting to know if and when we will be grooming . Lafarge and Cooke were groomed last weekend , parking at 12 km on Lafarge and 14km on Cooke. If your riding during the week days out there you must carry a radio and call your kms up and down as there is a lot of logging going on right now all along kingfisher .
As for Ashton and brash. No we have not yet groomed as we do not have any snow down low . Fingers crossed we get some this week . We will be grooming brash and Ashton this Saturday and possibly putting the trail in out to Gordon Sydney if all goes well . Please check the hunters range web page or watch the Facebook page for grooming updates .
Be careful at the cattle guard on Ashton just before main parking lot as it's been damaged and waiting on forestry to let us know when it will be fixed. The gate is open on the side of it so please use that and NOT go over the cattle guard . Watch for the snow cat this weekend as it will be crawling around all day Saturday.
So its mandatory on Lafarge and Cooke to either purchase your day pass or a membership to ride our trails once we start to groom . It's an illegal offense if you do not pay . We had a large group on Sunday beat the collector to trail head and also 2 more trucks blow by and refuse to pay . Once we start grooming this weekend on Ashton brash it will also be mandatory to pay your day pass or purchase a membership . And there will be inspections along the trail system's this winter asking to see your day pass ticket or your membership so please carry those with you .
Remember
Masks are mandatory in the cabins
Limited people allowed in at a time
Keep your distance in the parking lots
Bring exact cash to the trail head ($25)
Use cabins at your own risk as we are not wiping them down every day
Do your best to reduce the spread of Covid 19

Please be aware that is is still cash only for trail passes, we ask you have exact change if possible, we know it is not always possible but we are trying our best to limit the cash handling process due to the Covid stuff. We are still selling Memberships at the hut, payable by cash or credit card. Happy Sledding all!!
