Hey Everybody,
Groomed last night, The hill is in great shape, getting there will be TOUGH.....We will still groom as long as possible.
ICY corners Ride safe
Have to believe it's time to take the clubs best interest in to consideration and park the groomer,save the machines wear and tear and clubs fuel dollars. Great job for the season to all that volunteered time and efforts. Hats off to ya'all!!! |

We will be going up to Turin in the "cooler" am and bring the groomer home to the Edge, a big thanks to everyone who supported us and hope to see some of you on the trails this spring for clean-up, bridge repair, etc......

Throw some dates out there,I don't know what up coming schedule looks like but lets get started. Also the big bridge project should be done when water level is low,maybe just running up the center of the creek bed. |

Talking with Bernie about the bridge... he suggested "Mafia Blocks" as the supports. Said the cost about $30 each and we would probably need only 4. Each one is about a yard of 'crete. This would save a lot of time over the steel cages as we would not need to look for stone to fill the cages with. Art you have his # can you give him a call and confirm size of the blocks to see if they would work/how many we need and then we can get approval from the club. It would be nice to have them sitting there before crops go in so when the water is low and we can get a crew together all we need is a machine or two. |

Not sure what a mafia block is? Just a large concrete cube?

Exactly but more of a rectangle... I think they are keyed with a tongue or bump on top and a hollow grove on the bottom so the lock together. |

and who has these ? How will we handle them,that would most likely take an excavator,not a backhoe. Thats why I thought the cages would work for us do to limit equipment avail. rocks can come out of creek bed and mix concrete by small mixer.Lots of work but will save a lot of club cash. |
