Salisbury Ridgerunners Trail Report
 Now that the trails are open, please pay heed to this resolution passed by the Village of Dolgeville concerning parking and snowmobile travel on West State Street. The north side is the same side as the cemetery as you leave the trail. Be use extreme caution when going by driveways and always be alert for motorists who  may be unaware of your sled having access to that portion of the road. It will take efforts on everyone's part to insure that this plan is successful.

You must be a member to use the racetrack. There is a member parking only sign in the parking lot across from the club. Joining is very easy, just inquire at the bar or ask someone for assistance in signing up. Membership is what keeps our  snowmobile trail system open. We have very dedicated groomers who give freely of their time to make sure the snowmobile trails are rideable, sometimes foregoing their own riding to ensure yours is memorable. Groomer meeting 2nd Thursday of each month.
 
A very big thank you to everyone who supports our snowmobile club with membership dues, trail fund donations and volunteering their time. 
 
Trails are open please ride with care and  please, please be aware that groomers will be  on the trails at some point. We have had several near misses. The groomers are not able to manuever out of the way quickly. You can and you must  give the right of way to the groomers.  We want everyone to return safely from their ride.

In addition to these marked trails there are a number of side venues to stores and businesses that are too numerous to list. Please stay on the trail when you need to fuel up or eat.  Cutting across yards and driveways could jeopardize our access to these vital locations. Please remember that our landowners are people just like we are and they do not want to spend their spring cleaning up their property from negligent riders. If you abuse, we all lose!
