    Hard pack snow surface with frozen foot prints through out . Fs fat bike took off the roughness. Deep snow along the edges if you have to put a foot down

    Perfect winter conditions with cold -10c temps
    . Plenty of foot traffic and Fat tires packing the trails down to highway like conditions . Fs fatbike took the edges of the bumps resulting in a fast ride for winter

    Reviewing Old Quarry Trails:
    ***

    Fun basic single and double track trails. If you stick to the actual tracks they are pretty boring double tracks with lots of people, but if you get off the beaten trail you can have some fun on some basic to intermediate tracks. The key is taking the trails that aren't marked.

    Great trails for beginners or if you are looking for a quick blow off some steam ride after work.
