Trail Reports


Paradise Area Trail Report – 02/03

Woke up this morning to 12 degrees and a fresh 2 inches of snow on our deck….YES!! It is still snowing pretty good right now….YES again!!

The weather guessers are calling for a few more inches over the next couple of days. If this happens I will upgrade the trails back to excellent!! They are good now, just not excellent in my book.

Not much more to report, just trying to keep my brother ( from down below ) off my back. Waiting for him to take some time off work and come UP during the week, its worth it bro!!

Something I did want to mention and maybe teach you. Groomer lesson 101. When you come upon a groomer from either the front or rear…..take it easy. We will stop when the coast is clear and there is room to get around us. I see WAY too many people that seem to be in a hurry to get by us. If we are coming at you in a tight section of trail, just turn around, PLEASE. Don`t try to squeeze around us. I`ve had people jump on the bank of the trail and walk their sleds by us and be between the sled and the drag. This is dangerous!! If your sled tips into the drag it will pin you….duh. And then what? If you come in behind us, take it easy, especially on the fresh groom. We will stop and let you by as soon as we can. Please don`t tear around us and trench the fresh groom. Thanks for your cooperation.

LET ER SNOW!!!! Groomer Chris

Benzie Area Trail Report – 02/02

North of 39 is not good. Highbridge all the way around 39 and bear lake are surprisingly good. All were groomed and nobody’s riding. 125 miles and never seen a sled, I love Mondays!

Benzie Visitor Bureau – 02/02

Hi all! Happy Groundhog Day! The rodent say 6 more weeks! But we Northern Michigan folks know that can mean nothing! Our Winter this year has been yet another rollercoaster! We did get a few inches of new snow Friday but just not enough! Trails are rideable but it is thin out there so not great. Trails were groomed over the weekend but there isn’t much for them to work with. There is some snow on the ground but just not a good base. Snirt and dirt in some places and ice in some so just be careful out there! Forecast calls for a little snow this week bu not much to speak of. They are saying we could see a possible system next Sunday so let’s hope so! WE NEED SNOW! Remember IF you ARE out there over the weekend, that the Benzie Manistee Snowbirds Clubhouse has an OPEN HOUSE every Saturday thru February! Stop in at 14121 Industrial Drive in Kaleva. Fun conversation, free warm-up coffee or hot-coco & a snack provided by the club! THANKS tons for the email FedEx Lloyd! Glad to hear from you again! OK! So till next time keep up the snow dance and hopefully soon I can say SEEYA on the trails baby!
