What an unfortunate season! We kept hoping for a spring break storm but it never happened and Sunday the trails are officially closed to snowmobiles. All we can do now is hope for a better year next year.
Thought you might be interested in these facts provided by Al Green our Trail Coordinator. ‘We groomed 2948 miles this winter in 440.7 hours and used 2361.8 gallons of fuel. We only groomed 2 full weeks and 4 partial weeks during the entire season (none in December). These are the lowest totals for which we have records.’
We would like to thank all of our volunteers and supporters. We simply couldn’t do what we do without our your continued support year after year. We all take great pride in making the Cadillac trail system the best it can be.
Have a safe and fun summer and we look forward to seeing you on the trails next winter.

Snow accumulation: 0 inches* (some in the forest–not much)
We lost the snow almost as quickly as it came. The trails are a mess if they exist at all. Where there is snow it’s slush or snirt–not a pretty picture. The White Pine is down to pavement. The Cadillac West/InTown Trail is mostly green or brown. It appears for the next week or so spring has sprung as we have more 40 to 50 degree days in the foreseeable future. The best we can hope for is a spring break snow storm. We never rule those out.
The guys have been working non-stop since the storm clearing the trail system of fallen trees and brush. It’s been a back-breaking job. They are working today down by the Pine River Bridge. The White Pine Trail is yet to be done. We have had such high winds the last couple of days the guys are afraid there have been some additional trees come down in areas they have already cleared.
We hope this isn’t the end of the season but it could be–stay tuned.
