January 11 – Condition: Good
On Friday, the western portion of our trail system picked up 8 inches of new snow while the Cadillac area picked 4 inches. We continue to groom all trails with the exception of the White Pine Trail which does not have enough snow for grooming. It sure would be nice to get some packy snow because all the snow we have gotten so far has been light and fluffy. Our main trails have lots of snow while some of the smaller trails snow can get pretty thin. Over all, Jim Thomas, our new Trail Coordinator says the trails are good. Keep in mind, there is a bit more snow to the north and to the western part of our system.

January 7, 2015 – Condition: Fair – Another brutally cold, windy day…fortunately we picked up another inch or so of snow but not the packy stuff we so desperately need.
Today is not an official grooming day as we have designated Wednesday as a maintenance day for equipment.
That doesn’t mean there are no groomers out there as some may get the notion to go grooming after the maintenance work is done –so always be on the lookout for groomers.
We continue to hear the trails to the north toward Mesick are in good condition but the rest of trails remain in fair condition so that is where we will keep our rating.
January 6, 2015 – UPDATE: Checkout the following picture sent this evening by our groomer covering the southern portion of our system. A special thanks to our groomers for sending these pictures to us for up-the-minute trail reports. Be sure to let them know you appreciate their efforts. They are all VOLUNTEERS.
