Paradise Area Trail Report – 01/21
PARADISE AREA UPDATE via Paradise Area Night Riders www.paradiseareanightriders.org >> 01/21
1/21/26
5 degrees this morning with a light snow in the air. Its been REALLY cold UP here the last few days and we picked up 6-8" of snow and with some places a foot plus since Monday!! Lots of news….most good…..one not so good….so lets go….
Lets start with the good. We really needed Mother Nature to cooperate and she has! Lots of snow and cold to help us get these low areas froze in. We took 2 machines w/o drags thru the swamp south of town yesterday. It is ALMOST passable. We are gonna give it a day to freeze and run it again and then should be able to open the gates. The rest of trail #8 south is good. After that swamp run yesterday Groomer Mike C. took a machine with drag for the first time this year and ran the Falls trail #45. He rated it as good….FINALLY!!!! That headache gone! Just be careful and don`t go flying thru, there still is a few wet spots but Grand Pa and Grand Ma on a 2 up sled will have no problem.
We are gonna run the Stump trail and the Point trails today. The Stump is in good shape but the Point trails still have a bit of water in a couple spots. We should be able to remedy that today.
Now the bad news…..we had a machine go down yesterday… figures…. right when everything was looking great. We have called the mechanic to look up the codes cause they weren`t in the book we have. Keeping our fingers crossed it ain`t serious.
Well….thats it….COME ON UP!!!!!
LET `ER SNOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Groomer Chris

Looks like more snow again today. Plowed once and looks like I’ll be plowing tomorrow morning as well
I told people I thought we were going to have a big winter like 2014, it’s sure looking that way half way through
If you haven’t been up here you’re truly missing out! #newberry #snowphotos
PARADISE AREA UPDATE via Paradise Area Night Riders www.paradiseareanightriders.org >> 1/28/26
9 degrees this morning and snowing. I picked up 5-6" of fresh snow on my deck from last night and it looks like its supposed to snow for the next couple of days too!!!
Our entire system was groomed yesterday and there`s only one way to describe it......EXCELLENT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Now, those of you who follow me know I don`t use that word very often, but I ain`t kiddin, it doesn`t get any better than this. The swamp south of town, the Falls trail, ALL of our low land trails are better than I`ve seen in a long time!!!!!
If you don`t have plans on gettin U.P. here.....make `em. It won`t last forever.
Thats all I have to report.....one word.....EXCELLENT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
LET `ER SNOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

WEATHER UPDATE via US National Weather Service Marquette Michigan >> Another quickly-moving Clipper will bring a round of widespread, light snow beginning this evening, followed by lingering lake effect snow across the NW wind snow belts for Tuesday. Totals of an inch or less are expected for most of the UP, but where lake effect snow occurs, up to 2-5in of snow is possible tonight through Tuesday evening. As winds pick up early Tuesday, patchy blowing snow may contribute to reduced visibility in the NW wind snow belts. Take care during your morning commute! #miweather #keweenaw #westernup #marquette #munising #seney #newberry #soo #straitsareaAnother quickly-moving Clipper will bring a round of widespread, light snow beginning this evening, followed by lingering lake effect snow across the NW wind snow belts for Tuesday.
