Paradise Area Trail Report – 01/03
PARADISE AREA UPDATE via Paradise Area Night Riders – 01/03
1/3/25
19 degrees this morning with heavy LE bands blowing in and out. Sometimes I can`t even see across my parking lot! We picked up a good 6" between yesterday and last night!
Now that the weather is cooperating we are hittin the trails wide open! All three of our machines will be rolling this morning. We are running trail #8 south (skipping the swamp for now), trail #8 to Pine Stump and trails #452 and #453. I`ll have a detailed report on how everything goes tomorrow morning, including what the loggers are up to, they are (were) running on 3 sections of our trail system. We are gonna wait a few days for the cold temps to start to freeze up our swampy areas….ie the Falls trail #45 and the swamp south of town.
All I have fer now…..I`m heading out the door to go grooming!
LET `ER SNOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

WEATHER UPDATE via US National Weather Service Marquette Michigan >> A high impact winter storm is set to impact the U.P. tonight through tomorrow. Blizzard conditions are expected to develop, resulting in areas near zero visibility, especially near Lake Superior where gusts upwards of 60 mph are likely.
Important update: Trends in storm track have resulted in a southeast shift of the heaviest snowfall axis. Areas of 1 to 2 feet will be common from the high terrain of the central UP eastward along and north of M-28.
Strong northerly winds may result in downed trees and power outages. Please take extreme caution if you must travel over the next 24 hours. Stay safe! Check in on your neighbors!

WEATHER UPDATE via US National Weather Service Marquette Michigan >> Heavy snow and very strong winds expected to spread across Upper Michigan tonight and Monday. Near zero visibilities and blizzard conditions expected in some locations. Power outages likely. If you have travel plans Sunday night and Monday, change your plans to avoid being on the roads! #miweather #keweenaw #westernup #marquette #munising #seney #newberry #soo #straitsarea
PARADISE AREA UPDATE via Town Hall Snowmobile Club Paradise MI >> Didn’t get going till after noon today and had a maintenance stop at Clarke Motel for some fresh carbides along the way. South out of Paradise is very bumpy and the route to Hulbert was scrapped really good but passable. Heavy traffic made corners bumpy and studder bumps most of our day. Some sections were great like Mission Hill trail and part of 8 (west of the strongs turn off before getting to Curley Lewis) - busy weekend normal stuff. It’s about to get really good with forecasted 2-3 feet coming! FYI- you’ll want to avoid that little red diamond section south of paradise as we did- It’s wet in the Federal Forest #paradise #newberryDidn’t get going till after noon today and had a maintenance stop at Clarke Motel for some fresh carbides along the way.

Hazardous to dangerous driving conditions and power outages will be possible.

WEATHER UPDATE via Midwest Weather >> ~(Updated) Snowfall Forecast Sunrise Sunday-Sunrise Tuesday~
A major winter storm is expected to bring significant snowfall to portions of the region. Most of the accumulating snow will be along and north of I-80. No matter how much snow will fall, there will be strong northwest winds that will create blowing and drifting snow. Travel north of I-80 will be near impossible at times. Some road closures are possible along and north of I-90 given greater accumulation and more persistent blizzard-like conditions. Heaviest snowfall totals through sunrise Tuesday (there will be more after) will be along Lake Superior. Snowfall rates could exceed 2" an hour at times due to lake enhancement. Expect over a foot in most areas along the lakeshore before dropping as you get closer to the WI border. #miweather #keweenaw #westernup #marquette #munising #seney #newberry #soo #straitsarea #gaylord #cadillac #benzie #traversecity #petoskey~OUTDATED~

PARADISE AREA UPDATE via Town Hall Snowmobile Club Paradise MI >> Woke up to 4-5” of fresh snow in paradise. Did a nice 250 mile loop through Pine Stump road- Wolf Inn- Eagles Nest- Seney- Took 43 up to 8 and back to Grand Marias to Paradise. We skipped the Paradise side of 8 for the most part and everything we ran was great today. The new snow was just what the trails needed- another foot or two and off trail riding will begin! Looks like a groomer left the barn in Paradise- guessing he did the point loop 🤷♂️ as the trail into town was excellent. #paradise #newberry #snowphotosWoke up to 4-5” of fresh snow in paradise.

It is a good thing you skipped 8! There is a large section scraped to the ground because of logging operations and it absolutely sucks.
