Munising Area Trail Report – 12/08

MUNISING AREA UPDATE via TNT Trenary Northern Trails >> 12/08

All our gates are open as of today. We were able to pan from Rumley to 417 last night. We will be continuing our panning and freezing operations throughout the week and possibly weekend. Expect thin snow where panned and some exposed dirt spots. Plan for rough areas in wet spots as the ground is still wet when we go through and will take some snow and more passes to smooth out. Large wet areas west of 41 are expected to give us some trouble to start this season until we get them fixed next summer. Ride right and ride safe!

PLEASE REMEMBER TO SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS

Here is a report with some pictures of what we are seeing.

We have completed down tree removal across the trail system.
Swamp in Shingleton on trail 8 is setting up pretty nice. We plan to get the drag thru there possibly tomorrow. So far the Prinoth Bison has tracked it in with no drag. Snow is still thin in areas. We have some serious rocks in spots that need a bit more snow. There is some great early season riding to be had.
You will come across rocks and open water. Very low traffic at this point.

Last night we had a groomer driver meeting. There was a good turnout. We wound up over at the Bears Den after and had a good time. Cant wait to hit that salad bar. Met some snowmobilers in there. Good bunch of guys. We ended up meeting them again later that evening at the Buckhorn. They had no complaints. Just out having a good time early season riding. Carbides and Hyfax are replaceable wear items for a reason they laughed.

A big thanks to Mike and John for the days of chain sawing and clearing. Mike, Daeton, John and Chad for helping out in the shop.

Every minute of your time is greatly appreciated.

We are in good shape going in to this season equipment wise. We are doing all we can to prevent breakdowns. Things are setting up for a great season. I will post comments with the pictures of where they are from.

Munising Area Trail Report – 12/05

MUNISING AREA UPDATE via Alger County SORVA >> 12/05

Trail Report –

Things are setting up nice. we have been getting steady snow.
We still have open swamps and water holes.

Shingleton – Trail 8 – packed in the swamp yesterday. It is already pretty solid. We expect it to be locked up nice for this weekend. Still use caution in this area. There is an alternate spur you can go out to H15 (road) and skip the swamp section.

419 behind Munising to Christmas – This swamp area is still open.

We will get in there over the weekend to see if we can get a groomer thru there. That swamp has eaten groomers in the past and we have to be sure before bringing equipment back in there.

Over all the rest of the trails are in great shape. Very low traffic. We have been working on clearing trees. It seems like another storm hits just as we get them all cleared. Groomers are out where and when it makes sense. We have been going out during the day due to the tree clearing. It has been slow going. This is dangerous work and we do all we can to be safe. We don’t want any one getting hurt. We have been dealing with some sketchy hangers and leaners. Feel free to take a chainsaw with you and cut any trees you come across. Please cut back beyond the ditch line or edge of trail. We don’t want to leave any sitting on the side of the trail for the groomer to find. Great early season riding.

Posting some pictures from trail 8 Shingleton heading North.
