Monday afternoon Snow and Trail Update….
by Heart Lake Resort on Monday, January 16, 2012 at 2:11pm
Warmer today here in Gaylord – 30.2 as I write this. Folks are up riding this week and still finding good snow off the main trails. Main trails are starting to look rough and dirty in places but this new snow and colder temps that are coming our way will make a big difference. One of the best sites for accurate temps and snowfall is NOAA.gov. Just plug Gaylord, Michigan in and you’ll see exactly what I see – or where ever you plan to go for that matter. They don’t talk about trail conditions of course, but just accurate and very updated info. Or, whether you stay with us or not, you can always give me a call here at Heart Lake Resort as well if you need to know more. Thanks. John 989-732-5081 More later this week….

We will be getting a little more snow to whiten the trails up after a busy weekend. Tonight the forecast is calling for a couple more inches of snow with snow showers continuing through Friday. High temps will be in the teens and lows in the single digits through Friday.

GOGEBIC RANGE TRAIL AUTHORITY Reports both groomers are out. Trails 2,8 and 11S are in good condition with some fair spots. 160 is in good condition but has two wet spots so use caution. Use caution on 11S as logging is getting underway on the last four miles so watch out for logging trucks. Groomers will go out today to groom trail 11N. We will have an update for you tomorrow on that trail.

LAKE GOGEBIC AREA GROOMERS report trails are being groomed twice daily and in good to very good condition. They are the best they have been this season.

U.P.THUNDER RIDERS OF WATERSMEET report all trails are being groomed daily,trails are in fair to good condition.

Keep in mind the groomers will be out day and night, so watch for them,and PLEASE pull over or at least slow down and wait for the operator to signal you by whenever you see them.
