No change in trail conditions to report from yesterday–the guys groomed last night and the trails are flat (even at the trailhead). Today will be great riding for those who have the chance. The sun is out and skies are blue. We had a cold start to the day, with temps at -10. But now we’re up to a whopping 3 and may even make it to 10 degrees later. Forecasts are for chances for snow the next couple days and 32 degrees over the weekend. This may be your last chance to hit the trails so get out if you can.

Just an FYI that logging activity continues on the east loop of our wooded trail. The area is signed but watch for changing trails conditions where the trail has been plowed for vehicle traffic. The activity stretches about 1/2 to 1 mile.

Other grooming club news is the new drag we took delivery of in January. The State approved our purchase and this drag was custom-made for us by the experts at Dubie Welding & Fabrication in Gaylord. We’re glad to support local, Michigan business with this purchase. And since this drag will be paid for with State dollars it’s nice to know your trail permit money is coming back around.

If you’re interested in supporting local grooming efforts, visit www.justgroomit.org for details on joining the Indian River Snowmobile Grooming club with a membership donation. We have hats and t-shirts (short & long sleeve) for sale too. Even when we can’t groom we still have operational expenses like insurance, two-way radio communication subscriptions, and more. Thanks to member donations we’re putting up a groomer building ,where we now store and can work on the equipment. Your support makes all the difference! Thank you–
