Fort Saskatchewan Snow Angels trails 2013/14 season

Sledderglen · Nov 9, 2013

Hello riders:

Trails are not open as of yet. Same issues as last season. We have cattle in fields and closed gates till after hunting season.
Trail work will be starting soon. We need a good amount of snow to cover the cultivated fields and we don`t have it yet.
When the trails are open this year we are going to be more actively looking for trail passes. It cost a lot of money to build, maintain and groom a trail system every year. We are looking to upgrade our grooming equipment and that`s around $30,000.00 to do. We all need to pay to play and the club will continue to do the best we can to keep the trail open for you all in the future.

Hi Glen, is it going to be a side by side and pull behind or a Bombi and a huge Mogul Master?
I was in at E and S today, the new sxs looks strong, and with the Yami clutch system I think you could add about another 1/3 to my groomer and wouldn,t have a problem pulling it.
14k for the sxs, 5k for the tracks, about 1k for a home built cab and heater, 10k for a groomer, and a whole bunch of snow
See you on the trails

I was passing through Fort Saskatchewan today-really not enough snow. However, at the Redwater system, there was enough snow (barely) to ride. These trails are multi-use, so you have to share them with the ATVs, but I managed to get my first ride of the season in.

Trails still closed. Snow is getting good now but we need to get out there and set, stake, and clear the trails. Our South trails are closed even for us to do any preseason work because of Hunting Season. Will keep you all up to date here.

Thanks

Group working on the trails this Sunday. Will post here after. Trails still closed

Our trail is open but could use a bit more snow. Early season conditions out there so please use extra caution. Lake ice is getting close to be ridden on. This coming snow and cold will help our trail.

We will be trying to sell trail passes or day passes this year along the trail so please help support us and buy a pass and support organized snowmobiling in Alberta.

See you out there.

Great to hear! We will pick up our passes! Any word on Strathcona county easing up on its rules for sledding? Sure seeing lots more tracks this season!

After the election in October we have a steep mountain to climb again. New reps for the county. Cops will be out doing their job again this year

Trail passes are at E&S Yamaha again for you guys in the Fort and ASE and Sherwood Park Service in Sherwood Park.

Thanks for your support of the trails

So which councillors need some reassurance? I will be glad to put my two cents in.

All of them need a good talking to and the new Mayor

Where would a guy get a trail map for the area and info about the staging area? Went on the snow angels website and the only thing that would open is the forum section which takes me here.

Couldn`t agree more. We had a good easy trail and its all gone. Thanks to those who have purchased a Trailpass from us this year.
