PARADISE AREA UPDATE via Paradise Area Night Riders – 01/22
1/22/25 10 degrees this morning with a light snow falling. We are under a winter storm warning until tonight. "They" are calling for 5-10", depends who you watch. I have some really good news and unfortunately some not so good so lets get to it……
Groomer Mike H. ran the Point trails yesterday and called them in great shape. With all the recent snow and cold even the Doe Lake Rd. ridge thats been thin all season is good to go.
I ran the South trail #8, but skipped the swamp, and it turned out great. Plenty of snow on it now and the water holes on the south end of the power line are nuttin but small wet spots now. There is still a couple of very small wet spots in the Federal Forest section but they are easy to get around. They should freeze in within the next couple of days. Now, for the not so good…….
Groomer Keith was runnin the Stump trail last night and had a break down. The front tire broke off the machine and the track came off. Of course he was almost to da stump so he was about as far away from the barn as you could get. Groomers Mike C., Gerald and Glen loaded up 2 machines with all the anticipated tools and parts needed and headed to the rescue. They figured about a 4 hr. run to him then a couple hrs. to fix it, in the negative degree weather keep in mind, then about 4 hrs. back. It is 0800 this morning as I write this and I haven`t heard from them yet if they made it back. This will mess up our schedule for a day or so on grooming.
Thats it for today. Bring on this 5-10"
LET `ER SNOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Groomer Chris

WEATHER UPDATE via Michigan Storm Chasers >> Lake effect flurries and snow showers are possible today, March 1st, 2026 across some of northern Michigan and the Upper Peninsula. With dry air mixing in, totals will be relatively kept in check, but a swath of 1-3", perhaps 4" is possible along M-28 south of Grand Marais. Changing wind fields will also allow for light/brief accumulations along some of our lakeshore regions in the Lower Peninsula, but it's not guaranteed for everyone. Timing is through the remainder of the day. Mild temperatures coming later this week, which should help begin the melting process for many. #miweather #keweenaw#munising #newberry #sooLake effect flurries and snow showers are possible today, March 1st, 2026 across some of northern Michigan and the Upper Peninsula.

Its supposed to get close to 40 today then drop back to "normal" for a few days, with some snow Saturday, before climbing back into the 30`s later next week. Nuff on the weather, here`s what went on for the trails yesterday..... Groomer Dave ran the South trail #8 and called it EXCELLENT! Groomer Ben ran the Point trails #452 & #453 and used the word PRISTINE! Groomer Glenn ran the Falls trail #45 and said it was pretty beat up when he started but groomed up to good shape. I haven`t heard from the Pine Stump trail #8 & #9 guy but I gotta assume its good to go too. We`ll be running all trails all weekend so COME ON U.P.!!!!!! LET `ER SNOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
