It is getting closer....we did a ton of brushing here in the Tomahawk area (between the three clubs)...had some issues with beavers this year, had to get a trapper into a couple of areas and bust up some beaver dams...major pain in the butt..but it was handled. I went out with the guys for a full day of brushing last month (we hit the trails mainly to the east and north east of Tomahawk)...I can honestly say my old bones were sore and tired after that 8 hours..lol
So the trails have been prepped, and now we just await snow and ice....we are off to a great start with ice...already three inches of ice behind the sports center...nokomis is freezing up nicely, as is lake alice (it was 9 degrees this morning)...while there isn't much snow in the forecast, we should have decent ice making weather, with lows in the teens to low 20s over night the next 7 to 10 days....which is good as we need the ice first, and it always takes longer for the bigger swamps to freeze.
So...we are off to a good start...provided we don't get any huge storms with high winds, between now and the opening of the trails...we should be good to go.
