Traverse City Trail Report – Blue Sky Snowmobile Rentals – 01/28

Traverse City - Boardman Valley - January 28, 2010What a day yesterday.

First of all we did get about 4 inches of fresh snow. The winds have been up and we have not seen much improvement to the base. As for the base we do have a solid base on the Boardman. The trails are a bit icy in some spots but overall seem pretty good. The groomer has been out knocking down the bumps. With the current snow we should see some good riding this weekend.

OK ! I need to take a minute to give a huge thank you to SUPERTRAX magazine and SNOWTRAX tv for giving Mike and I the opportunity to guide them through the Boardman Valley. Mike and Matt Lester from Supertrax gave us a shout and asked us to guide them through the area. What a great opportunity for the local business’ on the trail and for Traverse in general. The Lester family has owned the rights to the business for years and were very impressed with not only the trails but the area as well. We are excited to say they will be giving the Boardman Valley trail and Blue Sky some great exposure in the Sept 2010 Supertrax magazine. We are in the works to possibly even help produce an episode of the SNOWTRAX TV show in the early winter of next year. I will say this.. they had some sweet new sleds for us to ride. I had my own 2009 Polaris 800 Dragon, Mike was on an 09 Renegade XP. The boys from Supertrax had the 2010 f8 snowpro, the 2010 Polaris 800 Dragon (which will feature on Mondays Snowtrax episode), the 2010 Yamaha Nitro FX, and my favorite of the four, the new 2010 Polaris Rush. Mike and I had a blast getting the chance to ride the latest and greatest. We had a chance to pick the brains of the experts and we grabbed as much information as we could. What a great day. We will be posting some photo’s from the ride very soon.

Anyway, enough bragging, we are looking forward to a great weekend of riding.

Be safe out there!

Traverse City Trail Report – Blue Sky Snowmobile Rentals – 01/24

Well, the good news is we didn’t get as much rain as we were anticipating. The snow held up well and the trails are still snow covered. We will no doubt have some icy corners and dirt in high traffic areas until we get more snow. The 10 day forecast shows us getting back to winter with snow expected each day for the next 10. We are suppose to get up to 3 inches tomorrow. We have been fortunate enough to have a great team of volunteers that groom the trails. These guys know when to groom and when to wait. We should see the trails in good shape for the upcoming weekend. I am guiding some writers from SUPERTRAX magazine this week. I will update the report on Thursday and let you all know how things are shaping up.

Ride safe !
