Kingdom Trails Grooming Report
Our grooming team has been working tirelessly to provide the high-quality conditions the Northeast Kingdom is known for. With the recent snowfall, we have successfully firmed up our winter network to offer prime surfaces for all users.
- New Snowdog Groomer: We are thrilled to introduce our newest grooming unit to the fleet! This nimble machine allows us to access tighter singletrack and maintain a more consistent, flowy surface in areas our larger equipment can't reach. New features like an equipment mount and handguards make Trail Crew's job much easier.
- Superior Grooming Quality: Our crew utilizes a combination of snowmobile-pulled drags, Snowdogs, and hand shoveling to ensure a firm, fast, and high-quality base.
- Nordic trails are groomed with classic track set at the Dashney Nordic Center and the Inn at Mountain View.
- Think Before You Sink: To preserve this high-quality grooming, please remember to check TrailHub for trail condition updates. If you are leaving a rut deeper than an inch, please exit the trails and wait for them to firm up. Thank you!

From the Executive Director: Hi Everyone! Well, July has certainly brought the heat, but luckily here at KT there are plenty of shady trails to choose from. Speaking of trails...we are opening a new one this weekend: "Cheddar Slice" connects the bottom of Butter Tubs to the bottom of the Dashney Loop, creating a roughly 4-mile family-friendly loop and adding another way to connect the Moose Alley and Dashney zones. Connectivity has been a big focus this year, and there is more to come later this season. Thank you to all our generous Landowners, members and supporters. Have a wonderful weekend and a very Happy Fourth of July!! -Georgia Celebrate the Fourth with Us!
