Paradise Area Trail Report – 01/19

PARADISE AREA UPDATE via Paradise Area Night Riders – 01/19

1/19/25
4 degrees this morning and snowing. Its been a bit windy so its hard to tell how much snow we got last night but I`ll call a solid 6". I do have drifts almost knee high on my deck. Here`s what went on yesterday……

Groomer Mike C. hit the Falls trail #45 with the drag yesterday. First time this year! He said it turned out good but there are a couple of wet spots you have to be careful of. They are easy to get around but just be smart. These next few days of really cold weather will tighten everything up nicely.

Groomer Keith ran the Pine Stump trails 8/9 and said they turned out good. Be aware of drifting in "siberia".

I ran the South trail #8 and it turned out good. Still a couple of wet spots but you can get around them easy.

We didn`t have power all day yesterday so I didn`t wander in the barn to look at the schedule so not sure what`s going on fer today. I`m thinking tho we`ll run the Point trails and da Stump again. I do know we`ll stay off the Falls trail today to give it a chance to tighted up, same as the South trail. Thinking we`ll get into the swamp south of town either tomorrow or Tuesday. That`s it

LET `ER SNOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Groomer Chris

Believe it or not our trails were looking great this morning.

The groomers are out there doing all they can,
See comments tied to pictures.

2 or 3 hours of sleep last night in the groomer…..

I apologize if this post and the report is a bunch of jibberish.

MUNISING AREA UPDATE via TNT Trenary Northern Trails >> Groomer operators were checking traffic levels and we had feedback from some drift busters and we will be looking into conditions tomorrow before we pull the trigger on grooming. Conditions are getting more favorable, but the snow isn’t settling fast enough with sleds avoiding the drifts and knocking the air out of them. At 16 thousand pounds, the groomer doesn’t float enough in soft deep snow and we dont have a second machine to self rescue. So bear with us as we constantly monitor and discuss amongst our operators on the earliest optimum time to safely hit the trail. Guaranteed, as soon as we all agree on a green light, you will have a smooth trail! #munising #snowphotos ... See MoreSee Less
