I'm new to town and I'm looking to check out Lumberton nest week. Anyone here that goes out in the middle of the week?

Had an awesome day yesterday riding Lumberton for the first time. As with anywhere else it can certainly use a good dump of fresh but the groomed trails and incredible scenery more than made up for it. Two thumbs up to the CSC for a beautiful riding area, fantastic parking, trail network and grooming...can't wait to come back!!

I tried to post some pics but can't seem to get them to upload...will try again later.

Keep in mind we have had over 4 feet of snow this week and as that road has a low priority it doesn't get plowed right away. They will get back to it and open up the road and both parking lots.

Where is the second parking lot at and how far do you ride the road to the trail head didn't have the right radios for the frequencies so followed a local had to stop as trucks were coming down because the lot was full do you need these radios all the time on that road or is it only when the snow is deep

You should have the correct radio with right frequencies for all forest service roads to be safe but normally cautious driving will do. There are normally two parking lots right at the trailhead, the main one and a smaller one to the right as you enter the main one. I believe they have been plowing as much as they can with our sno-cat, it will take a big machine to open it all back up.
