exist how many sledders would give up the sport and go back to the couch. Myself i came from the days of no grooming, and i do believe people don't truly appreciate the efforts. Cause many many moons the trail conditions were the trail conditions, and it was the price of admission to the back country and all was good with good friends and fires with smokie sticks. I'd be pretty hard pressed to complain about grooming and yes I've ridden whooped out trails which would make the finals at the snocross in Yellowstone look like a cake walk. I truly believe all the groomers do there best with what they have for equipment, time, money and snow conditions. And sometimes I do believe grooming in some ways has hurt the sport cause now everyone expects it and gets quite vocal about the trail if it's not to their standard. And yes there are fees collected daily, but if you ride a certain area lots, buy a club membership, get involved, be helpfully and try to learn how to become a groomer then everyone will be happy. Maybe Lol. my morning rant.
