Due to the rain storms 2 weeks ago the ICE BRIDGE over the North Blue River washed out. Please use the parking lot located just off Blue berry road ( Dump road) about 2 km north of town.

Riding the hwy or ditch is illegal so please try and use this parking lot.

Coulies and Peddie are CLOSED to snowmobiles under LEGISLATED WILDLIFE CLOSURE

MOE is doing monetary fights over the areas. Yesterday being the latest. There has been some NON COMPLIANCE in areas. Please respect the boundary's as continued infractions could result in loss of these areas. There is a lot more signs and hopefully more clear as to where the boundries are in Groundhog but the task is daunting and will take time to properly sign everything.

North Blue, Ground Hog and Salmon Lake trails are all groomed, Still Lots of great snow to ride in these areas.

Thank You
Blue River Powder Packers

Yep Salmon is open and only has a small area that borders the Caribou Closure......There is some closure along the access route up the Finn Rd.

We used the paper maps and put them on plywood with lexan over top but finally we got a 4x8 metel sign from moe for ground hog and have just requested the same for all our sma areas.
