We picked up some more snow the last couple of days. It’s hard to say how much because the wind has been blowing it around so much.

The snow guage is showing only an inch but I suspect there is a bit more than that. It sure has put a nice coating on things and caused lots of drifting. The trails remain in great shape with the groomers out there grooming their regular routes as needed. Our trail coordinator told me the other day that he can’t remember when the trails have been this nice this early in the year. According to the weather forecast, there is no reason they shouldn’t stay that way or get even better with additional snow.

Overall trail condition: Good to Excellent

To better access the forest trails, you’ll want to use one of the Staging Areas below:

33 Rd Staging Area–S of M-55–approx.. 3 miles west of Cadillac on M-55 (watch for signs)

Caberfae Staging Area–approx.. 12 miles west of Cadillac on M-55 (watch for signs)

Boon Staging Area–park in plowed area south of Boon Grocery

Note: The porta-a-johns were removed from our staging areas today as our contracts on them expired 3-15-13.

Haven’t been on the trails myself but have been talking with several sledders and groomer operators and they all seem to be very happy with trail conditions. The only complaints they have is about the cold. Today the high was around 5 degrees and the weather man tonight said that we will be waking up to -16 degrees in the morning. Later in the day tomorrow temps could rise to the teens and Saturday should be in the twenties and possibly low 30’s. Hopefully our bitter cold temperatures are pretty much over. We got a dusting of snow today and may pick up a little more tomorrow.
