GALWAY TRAILMASTERS TRAILS AND GROOMING OPERATIONS

The Galway Trailmasters' trail system extends from just north of the intersection of NYS Routes 67 and 147 in Galway where we connect with the Charlton Trails and goes on to Lake Desolation where we connect with the Mulleyville Trails.  This important link between Charlton and the Great Sacandaga Lake is maintained and groomed by our very own active volunteer membership! 

A “Trail Team” has been out working this summer and fall season.  The southern section of the trail has been widened to make it safer.  Bridges have been built over several wet areas and there have been some minor changes in the actual trail.  Several of the bridges have been re-decked. 

It is hard to believe how many hours it takes to get this work accomplished.  THANKS TO OUR VOLUNTEERS – members and non-members – who have spent countless hours working in the woods!  Every snowmobile that goes over this trail will appreciate the effort these volunteers made when they ride the trails this winter. 

Thanks also to our landowners who allow us to do this work and use their land for the trail! 

The Galway Trailmasters are proud to announce the placement of two sign boards.  These boards will display the trail map, your location on the trail and the mileage to various destinations.  There has been a third map placed on the warming hut near Old Mill Road.  Riders will also see another new feature:  Trash Containers!  There will be several of these placed on the trail.  Please Do Not Litter! 

This year the Galway Trailmasters will be grooming with several pieces of equipment including:  Thiokols, Scandics and a Br 100.  Members will be “tweeting" trail conditions and grooming updates as well as placing the information on this web site.  This will be done on a regular basis. 

The Galway Trailmasters join you in looking forward to a great 2009/2010 snowmobile season. 

Please respect the landowner’s property by staying on the trail – follow the signs.  Ride safely!
