Since 4pm Friday 1/3 we added 11" to our snow gauge with 3 foot drifts and it is still coming down pretty good. With a great base and tons of snow the trails will be awesome! Come blaze your own trail and ride the Pine Stump snow belt.

From Friday Jan 3: Dec 31- Jan 1 we added 5-14" in our region. Last night we added an additional 2" here at Halfway Lake and we have about 2 feet of snow on snow gauge. Our area has seen over 6 feet of snowfall this season. There is less snow south towards Newberry and more snow north towards Lk Superior. Our temps have been overall cold but we have lucked out with a couple of random days of warmer weather, helping firm up the base without losing a lot of snow.

Our guests are talking about how awesome the trails and county roads are leading towards Lk Superior, Grand Marais, and Paradise. We are hearing great-excellent ratings with the exception of south of here- the trail into/out of Newberry headed east and west is commonly rated fair-good. At this time, TASA is grooming three trails with two groomers so each trail will be skipped occasionally. I was told trail 9 would be groomed through the weekend.

Surround yourself in lake effect snow and ride a different direction each day! We are located 12 mi NW of Newberry (Halfway to Lk Superior) and 7 miles south of Pine Stump Junction. Between Grand Marais and Paradise. Tahquamenon Area Snowmobile Association grooms over 125 miles of trails that interconnect to hundreds of miles of trails groomed by local associations

Trail Report January 3, 2014 – Good afternoon, Happy New Year and its cold, so the trails are in great shape! The one warm day last week did bring a lot of ruts with high traffic. Groomers have been out brought them back to near perfect condition.

So dress warm and get out and ride. Overall traffic has slowed so trails are more open. More snow in forecast, its just keeps coming, again, again and again! We do have rental sleds available this weekend. Book online at http://www.snowblitz.com

The start of the 2013-14 Snowmobile season is underway! We again will be renting the fastest funnest sleds in Northern Michigan from our base at Ranch Rudolf just off the trail south of Traverse City, MI! The sleds are tuned, the trails are snow filled and the fun is waiting to be had! We are committed to helping you get on the trail this year and helping you have fun!
