Plenty of snow on the trails.
There is approximately a foot of snow where we are at…the trails are rough.
There has been no grooming. ….BUT we talked to the DNR and groomers will be out tomorrow (Thursday)!
That is great news. They should be able to go over them a few times before the weekend.
It is bitter cold. Dress warm and start making plans to come north and enjoy the winter.
We hope to hear from you! 989-732-2703

January 7, 2015 – Condition: Fair – Another brutally cold, windy day…fortunately we picked up another inch or so of snow but not the packy stuff we so desperately need.
Today is not an official grooming day as we have designated Wednesday as a maintenance day for equipment.
That doesn’t mean there are no groomers out there as some may get the notion to go grooming after the maintenance work is done –so always be on the lookout for groomers.
We continue to hear the trails to the north toward Mesick are in good condition but the rest of trails remain in fair condition so that is where we will keep our rating.
January 6, 2015 – UPDATE: Checkout the following picture sent this evening by our groomer covering the southern portion of our system. A special thanks to our groomers for sending these pictures to us for up-the-minute trail reports. Be sure to let them know you appreciate their efforts. They are all VOLUNTEERS.
