GOOD MONDAY MORNING….:) its 10:00am on a cold March 4th, 2013 morning… overnight temps again in the single digits (7 degrees). and through-out the upper pennisula..

TRail #8 in duck lake fire region …close to the FAMOUS rainbow lodge

***Weather ….. bringing single digit night temps and day time temps in the 20s. for this week……this weekend will warm up into the 30s for FRI_SAT_SUN…Then SNOW…..late sunday ‘SYSTEM-SNOW’ is predicted …YAY….not much great weather left !!!!

TRAIL REPORT….. STLL!!!!!! all trails in excellent condition A-+
as daytime solar-radiant heat softens the snow and groomers and single digit nights harden up the groomed snows….trails have been awsome.. not often we have perfect conditions for grooming…

Hazards…None reported….But i noticed lots of drifting in the Duck Lake Fire region of trail #8…trail was covered drifts in the 28,000 acres of the fire zone…
Picture is on last evening.. TRail #8 in duck lake fire region …close to the FAMOUS rainbow lodge….carnage seen from would be hill climbers sleds …pieces of windshield,mirrors , old belts, chewed up logs and stumps….all signs of errant snow machines leaving the trail… drifting snows will hide most of this in 24hrs time…
Have fun and be careful…

Good Morning…Its Saturday, March 2nd,2013… Temp is +7f at 7:30am… now warmed up to +18f at 11:00pm…

Picture from my last nights groom into the falls on trail #45…. crossing one of our many bogs/wet areas….all our trails are like this one…snowy,with lots of room to play and have fun…

**** Weather ….We are in a high pressure, sunny but cold , no snow predicted , week long period…… Great weather for family ventures..great for pictures,campfires, fun in the snow..

****Groomers report.. Trails are still in Excellent+ condition…..Snow is getting granular and moving around like sugar.., not packing/ or staying put in corners…. but still a excellent but soft ride… just a different type of snow …
