“Here kids, this is how you do it” Trail Master Jerry Mello !!
All Trails are OPEN
3-8-2014
It doesn’t get much better than it is right now. The warm weather we had put the much needed moisture in the snow and made grooming much easier and more efficient. The cold temps we are experiencing is enabling the trails to set up and get rock hard overnight. All trails are open and groomed. Conditions are good on all trails with a 6″ to 12″ base, there are a few spots with dirt coming through mostly on steep south facing hills but overall conditions are great, use caution and stay on trails as shoulders are very soft.
Our club has been a member of the New Hampshire Snowmobile Association (a.k.a. NHSA) for over 40 years. We are located in Jefferson, NH; Coos County, the heart of the White Mountains. We maintain 34 miles of trails within the Jefferson Hi-Landers Snowmobile Club system throughout the year. Our trail system joins hundreds of miles of snowmobile trails in the White Mountain region.

The law states that a Groomer has the right of way. Common sense says DO NOT PASS A MOVING GROOMER!!!
RECOMMENDED PRACTICE FOR PASSING A GROOMER approved by NHSA map and trails committee
- FOR ONCOMING SLEDS: The sled should pull off the trail and allow the groomer to pass by.
- OVERTAKING A GROOMER: The groomer operator should find a safe place to pull over and stop. The rider can then check to see if they can safely pass the groomer.
NOTE: The groomer operator will not signal a sled to pass.
Reason: Each rider must take responsibility for passing the Groomer.
NEW HAMPSHIRE STATUTES GOVERNING PASSING A TRAIL GROOMER.
