Blueblood Posted February 8, 2019 Report Share Posted February 8, 2019 How hard is it to take your blown track out with you instead of leaving? Just like when people throw there blown belts on side of trail. It's disrespectful to a beautiful place that deserves to be left that way.

Jackstraw Posted February 8, 2019 Report Share Posted February 8, 2019 Thats a sled track, whoever blew it left it nicely coiled on side of trail to be picked up by the groomer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blueblood Posted February 8, 2019 Report Share Posted February 8, 2019 I believe it was a snowmobile track also. And the guy who blew it should have taken it out. Not left it for groomer. Obviously a groomer track needs a few people to manhandle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
