Warm Temps have grooming operations on hold. Expected to be grooming Wednesday evening based on weather guesser predictions.
The attached pictures are from Sat night when we were able to groom in the BearTrap to the BearsDen down in Shingleton. It was a frozen up and locked in nice. Hope this melt down does not set us back too much. We should be able to get to a normal grooming schedule on this trail.
We are seeing issues with the John Deere 6175 and the 6155. A john Deere technician will be here with the needed parts in hand Wednesday morning.
The 6175 had a code pop up Saturday. The tech thinks we have a pump failing. It seems it can be replaced easily from under the tractor after removing the drive shaft. It is an external pump. See picture of code we have.
The 6155 has issues with the front blade module – controller. We repaired all of the physical damage. Now we have electrical stuff going on. The tech is bringing all of the parts that could possibly be causing the issues. Our hope is this machine will be good to go Wed night as well.
Last Friday night we attended an appreciation dinner hosted by The H58 Snow Cocks. It was a good time. They provided dinner, drinks, and sweatshirts for the groomer operators. We cant thank them enough! The steaks were huge and very tasty. 5 of us were able to make it out. We got to hang out with folks from several clubs in the area. Seney, Grand Marais, Curtis, Newberry, and a few others. It was great to exchange some war stories. We are all a part of the Eastern UP Motorized trail association. We meet monthly. This organization has been the best source of mentorship for us. These folks really know what they are doing and have many years of experience. We always are here for them and the same goes for them being there for us. Parts exchanges, mechanical knowledge sharing, grooming for one another when we have breakdowns. We all face the same challenges.
ALGER SORVA DECEMBER MONTHLY MEETIGN IS BEING CANCELLED.
The next meeting will be January 21

WEATHER UPDATE via US National Weather Service Marquette Michigan >> Lake effect snow showers are expected downwind of Lake Superior through Sunday, impacting the northwest wind snowbelt areas. This snow will be very susceptible to blowing in the wind, resulting in localized visibility reductions below 1 mile at times. Make sure to drive with your headlights on, at appropriate speeds, and with extra room between yourself and other vehicles! #miweather #keweenaw #westernup #marquette #munising #seney #newberry #soo #straitsareaLake effect snow showers are expected downwind of Lake Superior through Sunday, impacting the northwest wind snowbelt areas.

WEATHER UPDATE via US National Weather Service Marquette Michigan >> A cold front will move across the U.P this evening. Light snow will accompany the front but generally less than an inch is expected. Behind the front temperatures will fall into the single digits above and below zero. This combined with gusty winds will bring wind chills down into the teens and twenties below zero. A Cold Weather Advisory is in effect for Gogebic and Iron counties tonight through Saturday morning. Lake effect snow will develop behind the front in the northwest wind snowbelts with several inches expected. Those headed outside tonight or traveling should be prepared for bitter cold and snow (in the northwest wind snowbelts). #miweather #keweenaw #westernup #marquette #munising #seney #newberry #soo #straitsarea
