Snowmobile Trail Maintenance

On February 3rd we started construction of a new trail that connects the Quakish Brook road to the Tolman road (new 109S to old 109S). The landowners gave us permission to make the connection so we laid out the trail, hired a fellerbuncher to cut the trees (Thank You Double H Contracting), hired an excavator to grub out the trail and hired a mini-excavator to cut the brush on the south end of the trail.

On Saturday we hauled culverts to both ends of the new trail to fix a couple of water holes.

The trail brushing was finished Sunday (Thank You Kevin Boynton), the excavation will be finished on Monday (Thank You Bion Tolman & Son) and the trail will be ready to groom as soon as we get some decent snow!

On February 7th Rick opened up the old 109 South connector that runs on the west side of Nollesemic Lake. Lots of trees had fallen across the trail but it is now opened and groomed with a whole new section of logging road providing great views.
