WEATHER UPDATE via US National Weather Service Gaylord Michigan >> Sunny and dry today, albeit, with a bit of a chill as we kick off March. Clear and cold tonight with lows likely dropping below zero in many spots. We stay sunny Monday with more seasonable temperatures before warming further into midweek… as snow chances fester on Tuesday and rain chances intrude for Wednesday. #miweather #gaylord #cadillac #benzie #traversecity #petoskeySunny and dry today, albeit, with a bit of a chill as we kick off March.

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. We then trend cloudy and chilly Sunday before warming to more seasonably cool temperatures to start next week. #miweather #gaylord #cadillac #benzie #traversecity #petoskeyPerhaps a few snow showers today (especially eastern upper), otherwise dry and colder with some peeks of sun.

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 – 02/08

TRAVERSE CITY AREA UPDATE via GRAND TRAVERSE AREA SNOWMOBILE CLUB – 2/8

Trail Report: 02-08-2022
I wish I had better news for everyone but I don’t. The trails need a good dumping of snow, just like the ones that have gone south and north of us. There is snow in the woods but the trails themselves have more dirt than snow on them. Our groomers are sitting idle until we receive some measurable snow. Sadly, I wouldn’t ride my sled on them and would not recommend it to anyone else at this time. Today, it was sunny and 37. Tomorrow the forecast shows 36 and some wet flurries. I will continue to keep you informed of our current conditions, hopefully they will change for the better soon. Lets do some snow dances and hope for the best. Remember, Ride Right, Ride Sober, Ride Safe.

TRAVERSE CITY AREA UPDATE via RANCH RUDOLF – 2/8

This has been a tough season for winter enthusiasts. Snowmobile trails are in poor shape. We are mostly down to dirt and ice at this point. Hoping for a drastic turnaround. Will keep you posted as conditions improve, because they just have to…it’s been a long time coming….
