We received a report that someone has dug out the snow on the main Homestake road to create a gap in the road. This obstruction is about 10 feet wide and dug down deep. It seems as though this may have been done to purposely to cause damage to snowmobilers. It is approximately 3 miles up from hwy 24 on a blind corner. Please pass this information along and ride with caution.
WTF is wrong with people?! Just because one does not particularly care for snowmobilers doesn't mean it's ok to try and hurt somebody. THIS IS POTENTIALLY FATAL!! This same thing happened up on Buffalo Pass a few years ago. The trench was approx the same size and about 7 feet deep. A rider did actually get caught in this at dusk on his way to the parking lot after a day's ride. He ended up with a puntured lung and two broken arms and one collarbone.
