Hi Everyone, we have been getting 2" to 3" of snow everyday since Christmas Day, so the trails are getting back to good condition. We have had several of our guest extent their stay, so it can’t be too bad. I talked to the grooming coordinator 12-28-09 and was told that all the trails are scheduled to be completely groomed again by tonight 12-29-09 and again Friday and Sunday, barring any problems with the equipment. So this will make for some sweet riding this Holiday weekend. That is what is nice around here, we are in the middle of 6 different grooming clubs, if one isn’t grooming, one of the other Clubs are grooming. There will be some ice out on the trail in the curves, so slow down and enjoy yourself. Most county roads are snow covered, so getting fuel or food shouldn’t be a problem. There is tons of snow in the woods, so two tracken and seasonal roads are a blast right now. (Which there are tons of). There is going to be some Ice on the trails and roads, so be careful. THE LAKES ARE NOT SAFE YET.

Rooms and Snowmobile Rentals are available.

We are members of the Cycle Conservation Club of Michigan, Baldwin Trailriders Snowmobile Club, Benzie/Manistee Snowbirds Snowmobile Club, Irons Area Tourist Association Snowmobile Club, Wellston Area Recreation and Tourist Bureau Snowmobile Club, Lake County ORV Club and the Michigan Snowmobile Association, which are the local grooming clubs. I can not thank these guys and gals enough, they do a lot of work for free, so we all can enjoy this sport. I would only think that if someone is complaining about a bumpy trail on Saturday afternoon, come to a couple club meetings and see just what these people do. They would never complain again. Thank you again.

Call 231 745 4101 8am until 10pm. See ya soon on the trails.

Guest that rode to the Falls and then around by Pine Stump reported trails as good with the exception of the section between CR 500 and the Falls. Other guest that rode south said trails were a little on the rough side. Traffic is picking up it seems so hit the trails early.

TASA normally heads out early evening on the North trails and morning on the South trail as it takes longer to groom the South trails. TASA grooms seven days per week weather permitting and no breakdown/problem with groomer(s).

Trail 9 groomed and rated as very good by groomers.

Trail 45 groomed and rated as good by groomers. Logging just before and after the Skyline Road so watch out for those trucks.

Trail 2/473-Groomed and rated as fair. Logging for about a seven mile stretch south of Rexton. Watch for the groomer during the day and also logging trucks and deer.
