Benzie Visitor Bureau – 1/6

Hi all and Happy Hump Day! We got anywhere from 4-8′ or so of the fluffy white stuff over the last weekend and that is enough that the groomers are out! At this point the groomers are y are panning and filling in holes and getting rid of debris to be able to actually ‘groom’. They have started in the North and Middle to head to the southern parts shortly they say. So, its not perfect out there and we need snow but it is ‘early season rideable’. Unfortunately the forecast is for a mini warm up for the next few days with possible rain, but then after that, Sunday, Monday Tuesday comes back the cool down with several inches snow over those 3 days, so let’s hope we don’t get the rain but DO get the snow! So, after this initial clean up, should we stay Winter like, the groomers say they will be on a more regular schedule of grooming to build the trails up Wednesday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday nights – weather permitting. Reminder if ya see a groomer, stay outta their way and give them a thumbs up as they go by! They’re out there working hard for all of us!SO – NOW we really gotta do the snow dance and say your prayers to keep up the snow! SHOUT OUT of THANKS to my friends Cincinnati Steve & FedEx Lloyd for the emails and pics! LOVE IT! So, NOW I can say CYA on the trails! Carol B

Benzie Visitor Bureau – 12/30

Hi all! Well, I have better news than I have had yet this season but not GREAT news. Good news is at least it is looking white out there! Our area saw about 3-6′ of sleet, snow, and ice Monday into Tuesday. It is a thick heavy snow, slippery and packed hard! Bad news is that unfortunately it’s not enough snow to get the groomers out yet, BUT it is a start! SO _ NOW we really gotta do the snow dance and say your prayers for more more more snow! They are calling for 4-8′ lake effect over the next several days so lets hope we get it! We are hearing some sleds are out there but it’s not good yet AND there are many MANY trees down after the wind storm last week. So – if you can help out, please come this Saturday (Jan 2) to a ‘TRAIL WORK DAY’ with the Benzie Manistee Snowbirds. 9am at the Clubhouse in Kaleva. Help is definitely needed to clear the trails! If you can’t make it Saturday let Jeff know, since there may be folks out other days too. Call or text Jeff at 517-740-1726. So – let’s hope the season is beginning soon! C’mon Mother Nature – bring it on! SHOUT OUT of THANKS to my friends Cincinnati Steve & FedEx Lloyd for the emails and pics! LOVE IT! So, till I can say CYA on the trails – take care! Carol B
