Logging in Speculator Tree Farm

Logging update -

When we went to groom Old Rt 30 in the Tree farm Sunday we learned that the trail had been plowed clean by the logger working on Fly Creek. We were told over a week ago that the logger was to be off of Old Rt 30 within a day or two and there would be no more plowing. Paul A. contacted the DEC again only to learn that the logger complained that he was having problems taking empty trucks down a section of Elm lake Rd and the Town of Wells told them it was OK to plow Old Rt 30.

No one from the snowmobile club was informed and neither was the DEC.

So, Old Rt. 30 will be open to both Logging Trucks (traveling South) as well as snowmobiles from Cave Hill Rd. to Fly Creek Rd. Half of the road will be plowed and half will be groomed. We will take the groomers this weekend and pull back as much snow onto the trail as we can.

Please travel this section of trail w/ care and be ready for oncoming traffic both vehicle and sled at all times.

Thanks

Bob C.
