Unfortunately I don't think that's going to happen anytime soon. The story I was told by people I trust was in mid February when we had the warm spell, some side by sides went over the berm and rode up the road (still a designated snowmobile trail as it's posted closed to wheeled vehicles). Also the ice on the road (that was bad on the hills) was a safety hazard to trucks driving up with sleds. I understand with the ice that the hills were pretty dangerous, but now that the ice is pretty much completely gone, it'd be nice if the gate was open. White's Ridge lot 3 miles up would be a good and easy spot to park. I'm not holding my breath for the gate to open right away.:brokenheart:

There is a possibility the gate may open this weekend. Jeff said he will take a look tomorrow. Also talked about taking down the berm on Northfork.

That would be a nice change if that happens! It's definitely due to open.

Had a good day today, much better than expected. Drove to whites ridge for parking, about a mile of gravel mixed between the snow and a little ice. Thanks to DNR for opening the gate!
