PARADISE AREA UPDATE via Paradise Area Night Riders – 12/21
12/21/24 5 degrees this morning…..YAY!!!!! I got a fresh inch of snow on my deck from last night too….YAY again!!! First day of winter….YAY for the 3rd time!!!!
We are off to a good start as far as snow goes, better than most years. The temps are supposed to behave for the next few days but it looks like a warm up is coming for after Christmas and into the new year. Lets hope it doesn`t get too crazy or maybe even changes.
Groomer Keith did run the Pine Stump trail #8 yesterday and told me it turned out pretty good. He did say there are some bare spots but all in all rated it as good. Thats all we ran yesterday, not sure what the plan is for today.
I`m taking off for down state for a few days to be with family for Christmas so this will be my last report till the 26th.
Merry Christmas to all and LET `ER SNOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! and not get too warm Groomer Chris

WEATHER UPDATE via Midwest Weather >> I'm going up north to the U.P of Michigan on Friday to chase a potentially significant lake effect snow event from late Saturday night through Tuesday. Snowfall accumulations could be 1-2', if not higher, as high-res model guidance comes in when we get closer. Another lake-effect snow event is increasingly likely behind an arctic front next Wednesday night through Friday, which we will need to keep an eye on. #miweather #keweenaw#westernup#marquette#munising #seney #newberry #soo #straitsarea#gaylord#cadillac#benzie#traversecity#petoskeyI'm going up north to the U.P of Michigan on Friday to chase a potentially significant lake effect snow event from late Saturday night through Tuesday.

PARADISE AREA UPDATE via Paradise Area Night Riders www.paradiseareanightriders.org >> 12/22/25 12 degrees this morning under a mostly clear sky. Here`s the trail report on how things went yesterday..... We took 2 machines w/o drags and headed out on the Falls trail #45. Unfortunately I can`t give you any good news. It was U.G.L.Y. In fact, da boss said it was the worst he`s ever seen....bummer. He did say you could make it from the Upper Falls to the Lower to get fuel at the Lower but be careful. From the Lower Falls to Paradise IS NOT PASSABLE!!! There is a video on our FB page to show you how bad it was. We need more snow and cold to even try this again in a groomer. Word of warning.....it is ILLEGAL to ride on M-123 from town to the Falls! Nothing else was run, we need more snow. The Point trails are ridable and the Pine Stump trail is also but thin in a lot of spots. We haven`t ran south on trail #8 since last weekend either. Simply put, we need more snow. This weeks forecast doesn`t look that promising for any great amounts either. Sorry for all the bad news......just being honest. I`ll let ya`ll know when things start improving. LET `ER SNOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Groomer Chris #paradise #newberry ... See MoreSee Less
