PARADISE AREA UPDATE via Town Hall Snowmobile Club Paradise MI – 11/27
Alrighty folks. Groomer Chris here still alive and back in the saddle for another season. It looks like I better get the trail reports rolling early this year!!! I haven`t seen this much snow this early in a very long time. I`ve got a solid 8" here at my place and I`ve seen reports of a foot plus outside of town. It looks like this weather pattern will last for at least a week with cold temps and lots of lake effect snow to come!!! I got a good feeling for this season!!!!! Mother Nature sure does owe us.
We are ready to go. We have our sunk groomer (remember) back from the manufacturer with a brand new engine and the other 2 machines are good to go. The brushing and signing is about wrapped up on the high ground. All we need is Mother Nature to continue to cooperate and this season is gonna be awesome!!!!
Just thought I would jump on here to see if I remember how to do this stuff and let ya`ll know we are still here. Keep checking back for the most honest trail reports for the Paradise area.
LET `ER SNOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Groomer Chris

All 3 machines are running GREAT and we will be grooming almost around the clock for the weekend. You see the key word here? So.......long story short......COME ON U.P.!
