Night Grooming by GPS on the Ministik Trails
Even with extra lights it's creapy, you can only see a short distance and the lights just vanish.
Thats when the GPS comes in very handy and keeps you on your old trail, an operators best friend at night is the GPS!!
While doing trail maintenance, when the ice is froze and before the snow, we ride the entire grooming trail with a GPS. That way we keeping off ice and helps to avoid rocks, stumps, beaver ruts/holes, soft skeg, that all get covered by snow and make for a terrible snowmobile trail.

Grooming the Hay Lakes trail into the Ministik Trails
Hard to take grooming on such a sunny day and riding the trails
It's a tough job but someone has to do it :)
Days like this help to make up for the crappy ones when you ask yourself "why am I out here late at night at -15 and snowing, can not hardly find the trails (thank God for GPS), then you have these days":)

So keeping the Grooming Thread alive
Tri-County has not groomed since 2014 due to no snow or not enough snow

Update January 2017- We are back in the saddle again - Yahoo

Clearing Parking lots and grooming the trails - Installed a new Cutter bar for this year on the mogul master MBP 18-08

Wow does it cut the branches

With 8" of new snow we took the groomer back out February 3, 2018
We groomed the whole south Ministik trails and some of the North trails
All in all some of the best condition ever on the trails.
