| Just a reminder that Snowmobile Trails are open to the public only after the end of Big Game Hunting Season (Dec 10 this year) to April 1. For Snowmobiles ONLY And For No Other Use. Without Permission Of The Land Owner And/Or The Lessee |
| TO GROOM It takes enough snow to make a base of hard snow on the trail to cover any bumps and rocks on the trail. 12" of snow can packs down after Grooming to maybe 2" to 6" depending on the type of snow (Wet/Dry). That's why on some trails that has ground that is smooth you can do a good grooming job without much snow and a trail that has rough/rocky ground it will take more snow to cover the trail and make it smooth. You also need it to be cold enough out to Groom or the snow just balls up. And it also takes dedicated volunteers who work on and do the driving of the Groomers that keep the trails Groomed and open for your use, And believe me they put a lot of hours into it. |

| We need your co-operation to prevent snowmobile related accidents from occurring. Please be aware that you are not the only ones on the trails. There are also other snowmobilers, trail grooming equipment, skiers, people who snowshoe and dog sled teams are also enjoying the benefits of these trails. We ask that you stay to the right of the trails and that you reduce speed especially around sharp bends. We need to work together to provide a safe and enjoyable environment for everyone. As always, ride with pride… and ride responsibly. |
| PARKING The DEC is requesting that snowmobilers do not park on the road going into the LONG POND TRACT off of Rt 56 between South Colton and Sevey Corners.

| Snowmobiles do not swim, be cautious of crossing lakes, ponds, rivers and reservoirs. Areas may appear to be frozen but caution should be used especially on the Raquette River. Temperatures have fluctuated considerably and looks can be deceiving |
