NEWBERRY AREA UPDATE via Pine Stump >> 1-9-26
Made the 30s yesterday. Some rain in the night but it’s still winter!
Already getting the calls if we lost all our snow. Had someone say he decided to go somewhere else this weekend. I told him why are you calling me asking about the snow then if you’re not even coming here.
I love talking to people but I don’t have time to answer 100 phone calls a day asking how the trails are here and how they are in the soo munising etc . I try to post on here with photos and videos so people can see what it’s like.
Plenty of snow with snow in the forecast. I think a lot of people will be up this weekend. If nobody comes I’ll go out and enjoy all this snow myself i guess
Hope to see everyone this weekend #newberry #snowphotos
Thanks for posting! We’ll be up Sunday!
PARADISE AREA UPDATE via Paradise Area Night Riders www.paradiseareanightriders.org >> 1/9/26
I crawled outa bed at 6:30 this morning to 38 degrees and rain.....this sucks. It is now 8 am and still raining but the temp went down to 34. I heard it raining all night and my weather station has recorded just over an inch.....this really sucks!!! It is supposed to cool down and turn to snow later this morning and get really windy and that will blow in a cold front, then snow some more Saturday afternoon. I`m sounding like a weather guesser ain`t I ? We do still have a couple foot of snow on the ground tho. Nuff on the sucky weather, lets get to the trails, which this is supposed to be about.....
We didn`t groom anything yesterday cause of the weather. We hit the Stump trail, the Point trails and trail #8 south all last Wednesday and they all turned out good. We are not gonna run anything today cause of the weather again but figure on runnin all high ground trails Saturday. After Saturday we will try and figure out what to do with the low ground trails. It looks like the weather is supposed to turn around closer to normal by Sunday.....we`ll see. Bout all I got for now. Come on Mother Nature.....get yer a$$ back in gear!!!!!!!!!!!!!
LET `ER SNOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! and get cold again!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

WEATHER UPDATE via US National Weather Service Marquette Michigan >> Moderate to heavy snow continues this morning for the high terrain of Marquette and Baraga counties. Elsewhere, light snow, rain, and wintry mix of both are expected. A brief pause in travel impacts occurs tonight before widespread snow returns Saturday through Sunday. #miweather #keweenaw #westernup #marquette #munising #seney #newberry #soo #straitsarea
WEATHER UPDATE via US National Weather Service Marquette Michigan >> Rain spreads into the UP this evening, transitioning to snow from west to east tonight. Snowfall rates of 0.5-1”/hr are possible late tonight into early Friday morning across the central UP, which will lead to hazardous travel as visibility drops as low as a quarter mile or less. Snow totals of 2-4” are possible across much of the central UP, with higher amounts of 4-6” in the higher terrain of Marquette and Baraga counties. #miweather #keweenaw #westernup #marquette #munising #seney #newberry #soo #straitsareaRain spreads into the UP this evening, transitioning to snow from west to east tonight.

WEATHER UPDATE via Pictured Rocks Marine Weather Conditions >> OK, here's the latest! Shown below is the expected 24-hour snowfall accumulation from 7pm today through 7pm Friday, along with the 24-hour snowfall from 7am Saturday through 7am Sunday. The 12-hour "gap" in between those two periods is the lull between the two waves of snow, when not much is expected to happen. And the snowmelt from the warm spell today should largely have ceased by then. More snow is also expected after 7am on Sunday and even into Monday, but it's a bit too early to call the snow amounts for that time period. Winter will not succumb to our brief warm spell! #miweather #keweenaw #westernup #marquette #munising #seney #newberry #soo #straitsarea #gaylord #cadillac #benzie #traversecity #petoskey

Being a groomer is more than a job—it’s a commitment to community, safety, and the love of snowmobiling.
Our groomers are compensated at $2 per mile groomed, but the reality behind that number tells a much bigger story. Depending on the trail, a single grooming route can take 8 to 10 hours to complete. That time can vary due to necessary stops—clearing debris, addressing unexpected issues, carefully exiting the groomer when needed, and slowing or stopping entirely as snowmobilers pass by.
Grooming equipment moves at a steady 7 to 11 miles per hour, requiring patience, focus, and long hours in often challenging conditions.
While this is technically a paid position, our groomers do this work for something far more meaningful: their love of the sport and their dedication to our community. They balance grooming with full-time jobs, families, and personal commitments—choosing to sacrifice their time so the Crazy 8’s trails remain safe, rideable, and enjoyable for all of us.
Today, let’s take a moment to truly thank our groomers for the countless unseen hours they put in behind the scenes. ❄️ #grandmarais #newberry #snowphotosWhat It Means to Be a Groomer for the Grand Marais Sno-Trails Association

WEATHER UPDATE via US National Weather Service Marquette Michigan >> After some fog today, rain moves in tonight, with a transition to snow that could have a period of light freezing rain and/or sleet mixed in. The best chances for 3+ inches of snow are in the high terrain of Marquette and Baraga Counties. Snow then ends from west to east through the day Friday, though travel might be difficult in some spots on the morning commute. This weekend may also bring snowfall, so keep an eye on the forecast if you have travel plans. #miweather #keweenaw #westernup #marquette #munising #seney #newberry #soo #straitsareaAfter some fog today, rain moves in tonight, with a transition to snow that could have a period of light freezing rain and/or sleet mixed in.

Meanwhile, parts of the Lower Peninsula get up to one inch of rain. #miweather #keweenaw #westernup #marquette #munising #seney #newberry #soo #straitsareaA narrow band of snow falls over parts of the western U.P. late Thursday through Friday. Some higher elevations could top 6" of snow!

GRAND MARAIS AREA UPDATE via Grand Marais Sno-Trails Assoc. >> Some pictures from driver Gary and driver Jim. The trails held up really well today. Hopefully we will get more snow than rain with the system headed our way. #grandmarais #newberry #snowphotos
We have been here for three days now and haven’t seen a groomer or a groomed trail, must be the groomers are on vacation this week, trails are very bad!!!!
WEATHER UPDATE via US National Weather Service Marquette Michigan >> Today, the morning fog and freezing drizzle will give way to a quiet but warmer than normal day. Fog returns tonight, though the weather remains quiet until a system passes south of the UP Thursday afternoon, bringing a wintry mix of rain, freezing rain, and snow to the UP, though the heaviest rain will fall along the Lake Michigan shores. Once this round of precip wraps up Friday afternoon, attention then turns to the potential for weekend snowfall, though plenty of scenarios are still possible, so those with weekend plans sensitive to winter weather should monitor the forecast. #miweather #keweenaw #westernup #marquette #munising #seney #newberry #soo #straitsareaToday, the morning fog and freezing drizzle will give way to a quiet but warmer than normal day.

NEWBERRY AREA UPDATE via Pine Stump >> 1-7-26 look at all that snow! The trees are beautiful right now with all that snow! #newberry #snowphotos
Anybody have a trail report on Drummond island?
PARADISE AREA UPDATE via Paradise Area Night Riders www.paradiseareanightriders.org >> 1/7/26
30 degrees again this morning with a light freezing fog/drizzle going on. The weather guessers are saying it will turn around to back to normal by Saturday or Sunday....lets hope they are right!!! Here`s whats been going on with the trails.....
We worked ALL DAY yesterday on the Falls trail #45 from town to the lower falls. Groomer Keith made some progress but it is still impassable at this time. We are gonna have to wait for the temps to cool down before we can get back in there. Same as the swamp south of town.
Today, Groomer Mike H. is gonna run the Point trails #452 & #453. They are in good shape. Groomer Keith is gonna hit the Pine Stump trail #8. This trail is in good shape also except for where the loggers have it plowed down. I am hittin trail #8 south. This trail is also in good shape except for a couple of small water holes and I`ll work on them. This will probably do it until the temps cool off.
Keep checking back.....I`ll keep you informed
LET `ER SNOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

NEWBERRY AREA UPDATE via TASA Tahquamenon Area Snowmobile Association >> Anyone happen to notice this limb on 9?
Just so you know, we're out here taking care of you ☺️
So decided to also just go ahead and drag my way out here seeing if I could improve as long as I was going and so far, we've really not been needed! It's SWEET out here!"
Anyway, gotta get busy, keep ya posted. #newberry #snowphotos
Spent most of the day yesterday picking branches off the trail. That one would've been a bit larger than I could have handled. Thanks for the great work so far this year!
FROM Trails End Lodging >> Looking for something fun to do this weekend? It’s a great weekend to visit the Upper Peninsula with the Tahquamenon Country Sled Dog Race 2026 happening January 10th & 11th! Experience the excitement of winter in the UP as mushers and their incredible dogs take on the snowy trails. Wishing all the racers the best of luck—we hope everyone has a safe and amazing race! #newberry
Such a fun thing to see!!
