Munising Area Trail Report – 03/17
TRAIL REPORT March 17, 2022
TRAILS GOING FAST!
This warm windy weather is really taking a toll on the trail systems. The main trails are holding on OK right now with some water and icy conditions. Trails in the hills are starting to show bare spots in areas with icy corners and water holes. Snow is definitely going fast with bare trail and flooding in Trail 418 near AuTrain. Trails are choppy with some large rollers on the sections of the main trails. Grooming operations are currently on hold until further notice. Looking at the forecast we may be able to do some grooming Friday and Saturday nights. We will have to watch as we get closer to see if its cold enough and the condition of snow cooperates with grooming. Ride to the Right and Stay Tuned for updates!

MUNISING AREA UPDATE via TNT Trenary Northern Trails – 3/17
High temps are not going to help the trail. Road crossings are bare and approaches are getting dirty. Trails are flat and hard, but getting wet, thin, and icy. Temps were 32° at the house this morning, but 41° at work. Get out and ride while you can. There is no guarantee that the trail will hold up at this rate. We will keep watching it and let you know when it gets unrideable and where you can still go. Ride right and ride safe.

WEATHER UPDATE via US National Weather Service Marquette Michigan >> High pressure will gradually build into the region today and Thursday. This will slowly diminish lake effect snow showers from west to east. It will also help usher in a warm and mostly dry period. Most can expect above freezing temperatures during the day and below freezing temperatures overnight into at least early next week. #miweather #keweenaw #westernup #marquette #munising #seney #newberry #soo #straitsareaHigh pressure will gradually build into the region today and Thursday.

Thank you folks for the hard work over the weekend! Saw multiple groomers and no complaints about the trails. Smooth as glass Sunday morning. My hat is off to you folks for keeping the many miles of trails in the shape you do.
MUNISING AREA UPDATE via TNT Trenary Northern Trails >> Last night was a fun night with a little training, some drifting, and a murder burger from the Throttle in Little Lake! Lots of drifting on the east end last night and this morning. Good results grooming the entire length of the trail. Groomer will be out on the trail soon to clean up the drifts and make another run! General maintenance today went well with some of our operators getting involved and one of our new operators took the pole saw for a workout along Finn Spur, where the height of the snow and the tractor was putting us up in the canopy of the trees. It’s the little things that help out in the biggest ways. You don’t even have to be an operator to contribute! Ride right and ride safe! #munising #snowphotos
