Paradise Area Trail Report – 01/08

PARADISE AREA UPDATE via Paradise Area Night Riders – 01/08

1/8/25
5 degrees this morning under a clear sky. I have picked up about 2" of fresh snow in the last 24 hrs. here at my place. I need to start out with an apology for yesterdays report. I messed up the days we are runnin. We hit the high ground trails yesterday and taking today off for maintenance, sorry, so here we go……

Groomer Mike H. ran the Point trails #452 and #453 yesterday and called them good +. The thin spots are gettin better but he did skip the ridge along Doe Lake road cause thats still pretty thin, but still ridable, you`ll hit a lot of roots so be careful.

Groomer Keith ran the Pine Stump trail #8 and called that good with the thin spots gettin better also. The rest of yesterday report still holds.

With these colder temps I have high hopes we can start freezing in the wet areas so keep checking back.

All I have fer today.
LET `ER SNOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Groomer Chris

TROUT LAKE - EASTERN U.P. UPDATE via The Rail House-Trout Lake MI >> Welp... we had to give it a shot but only made it a few miles before we turned around and headed back in. The wind makes it hard to tell exactly how much snow we have gotten in the last 24hrs but its pretty significant. Roads are NOT passable. Please don't try to go out until the county trucks are able to do a pass or 2. If you are familiar with our area, this pic was taken on Huckleberry road on the South side of the lake. #troutlake #newberry #snowphotosWelp... we had to give it a shot but only made it a few miles before we turned around and headed back in.

Paradise Area Trail Report – 01/07

PARADISE AREA UPDATE via Paradise Area Night Riders – 01/07

1/7/25
15 degrees this morning under partly cloudy skies. No new snow to speak of in the last couple days, don`t really see any coming in the next few days either….bummer.

I was talking with da boss yesterday and we came up with a grand plan for the next few days. We will take today off and do a little maintenance on the machines. Tomorrow we will run the high ground trails, Pine Stump and the Point trails. Thursday I am gonna take a machine and a drag and go check out trail #8 south then Friday we will take 2 machines and check out the water situation on the Falls trail #45 then Saturday hit the high ground trails again. We will go by what the Falls trail looks like before we even think about going into the swamp south of town.

Just an FYI. The water levels in the wet area`s are the highest we have ever seen cause of all the snow we had early in December and then it all melted. This is the reason we are having such a hard time in the Falls trail and the trail south of town, even in the Federal forest section where that is really flooded in there. We are hoping the last few days have drained some of the water and the cold temps have froze some of it in. Now ya`ll know what da plan is, soooo……….

LET `ER SNOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Groomer Chris
