The words of the day – WINDY and very COLD. Layer up if you’re riding today. This Arctic Blast has dropped temperatures into the single digits to maybe a high of 15 degrees with wind chills in the -15 to -25 range, bringing another 5 to 9 inches of lake effect snow by tonight, another 5 to 8 tomorrow, with snow in the forecast for the next several days! Now this is winter in da UP, eh?!
As for the trails – tons of powder everywhere and drifts galore.

Here at the resort we saw 6-8″ of fresh snow yesterday on top of the 4-6″ base. Our guests are reporting trails to be very good-excellent. They rode from here to Grand Marais, Pinestump and Paradise.
Those that are checking out today have requested to leave their trucks/trailers for the afternoon so they can ride today and another group just stopped in to add Sunday night.
Weather reports are looking positive with a lake effect warning through Monday AM calling for “6-12 or more inches” today through Sunday night.
