The best snow and trail conditions so far this year. The Lake Effect Machine just keeps dumping on the JVTC trail system. Amounts of two foot plus of snowfall has been reported on parts of our sytem within the last seven days. All three groomers ran yesterday and ALL trails where groomed.
There will be a Ride In held in Charlevoix at Ferry Beach Saturday with FREE food and prizes from 11 AM to 3 PM. The trail to Charlevoix should be the best for this event that it has been for several years.
Please help us and order your share of snow for this season.
The JVTC will have 2 John Deere tractors with tracks and 1 Piston Bully 400 for the 2013 season. All machines will have winged Dubie Groomer drags this year. This will put the JVTC in good shape for many years to come for equipment.

Trails are open for business and are in very cood condition. We’ve gotten another 3-4′ of fresh snow since yesterday and it’s still coming down now. Visibility is not very good out there and we’re under another Lake Effect Snow Advisory until 11 tonight. We’re expected to get another 3-4′ of snow today and it could be more in select pockets. We may be in one of those pockets because it’s really been coming down since a few hours ago. It’s beautiful to look at and excellent for snowmobiling. However, if your mode of transportation is a car it’s not real pretty. Roads are packed with snow and are a mess. It’s been too cold for salt so we’ve got some sand out there. Shoulders of the road have plenty of snow and no sand so you can get from ‘A’ to ‘B’ with no wear on your skis/carbides. We only made it to about 4 degrees yesterday. Today we’re around 8 and that’s an indicator of the intense cloud cover over us. Sled traffic is picking up and snowmobilers are happy. It’s going to be another great day to ride our trail system and the groomers will run tonight. They’ll pack the base and these cold temps will freeze it in hard. Visibility is reduced because of snowfall and snow dust so ride smart. HAPPY TRAILS!
