Traverse City Area Trail Report – 01/15
TRAVERSE CITY AREA UPDATE via Grand Traverse Area Snowmobile Club >> 01/15
Just waiting on some snow…..we were forecasted to get 2 to 7 inches the other day. The majority of the trails system received about an inch of snow. One narrow snow band set up and put down about 5-6 inches of fluff. The trail base is a bit icy but smooth. We have a couple of inches forecasted each day for the next 5 days. We anticipate getting the groomer back out soon. I will update you when this happens or just keep an eye out for them on Groomer Tracker. Remember, Ride Right, Ride Safe, Ride Sober.
