Traverse City Trail Report – 01/27

TRAVERSE CITY AREA UPDATE via Ranch Rudolf – 1/27

A weekend update:
We will be open and serving food Saturday, 1/28 from 12pm to 4pm and Sunday, 1/29 from 12pm to 3pm.
There is snow!
It’s not great snow. It’s not much snow. But it’s more than we’ve seen in weeks. Groomers are out panning trails and trying to get a base established. Some people were out riding today- again, not ideal conditions, but it’s something. The extended forecast looks like colder temps than we’ve been seeing, and some snow here and there..just a matter of how much we get.
Beau and Knox have 1pm and 3pm hayride times available tmrw! We are also offering discounted rides for all school employees on Saturday 1/28. 231-947-9529 to reserve a ride and secure your discount. Please leave a vm for a return call. 🐴🐴

WEATHER UPDATE via US National Weather Service Gaylord Michigan >> Perhaps a few snow showers today (especially eastern upper), otherwise dry and colder with some peeks of sun. Some snow to contend with in two areas tonight… steadier light snow south of M-72, and some residual lake effect in eastern upper.

TRAVERSE CITY AREA UPDATE via Sled Solutions >> 50 Miles on the Grand Traverse Area Snowmobile Club system from Peegeo's to Kalkaska and I'd give it a 8 out of 10. Trails were flat but we do have SOME dirt showing in the open areas where the sun is hitting it. Overall 95% coverage. Tomorrow is supposed to be warm again but right back below freezing. Weekend should be good to go. #traversecity #snowphotos ... See MoreSee Less

Traverse City Trail Report – 12/29

TRAVERSE CITY AREA UPDATE via Ranch Rudolf – 12/29

An update for 12/30, brought to you by Pilgrim:

For Friday we will be open 11am to 6pm with food available 12pm to 4pm.

As you can see in Pilgrim’s picture, snow is melting almost as fast as it came 😞 it’s truly wild what Michigan weather can throw at us. Today averaged mid 40s and although it never rained, it was off and on mist for much of the evening. Snowmobile riding is not an option at this point.

Hayrides with Beau and Knox are still going as scheduled. There is currently 1 available ride time left for Jan 2nd, please call 231-947-9529 for reservations if interested in reserving a ride for your family.

As a reminder we will be closed on New Years Day.

Think snow ❄️❄️❄️
