Baldwin Area Trail Report – 01/26

BALDWIN AREA UPDATE via Trailriders Snowmobile Club >> 01/26

1/26 Update: Unfortunately, we don’t have a lot of grooming updates today. With yesterday’s warm up above freezing, we were unable to groom last night. Today the plan is to evaluate our system and determine if we can get at least some of our groomers rolling again today and tomorrow. Our equipment is ready to roll and our volunteer crew of operators are ready to go. For those out riding today, please share your feedback on conditions with pictures and locations if possible.

As posted last night, our open house was very successful! We appreciate everyone who was able to attend and to those that became members, thank you for contributing to our club. We hope to regularly see new members at our future events and meetings, as we are always looking for new faces and ideas. We especially appreciate all the work by our members and board throughout the day. There are so many dedicated volunteers working behind the scenes that made this event a great success! Also thanks to those who donated or provided food items and door prizes for our event. Paul H Jernberg, Chase Creek Smoke House, Fox Powersports Peacock, Hutson, Inc., Ebels General Store

Attached are some more pictures and videos of our open house event and the afternoon group ride through the north and west sections of our system (Ward Hills area – trails 3 &35 mainly). Thanks to big Al’s sled shed for guiding our group rides yesterday.

Michigan Snowmobile Trail Report

BALDWIN AREA UPDATE via Trailriders Snowmobile Club >> 12/28 Update: Club president Dan and Secretary Brian, took the 6195R and 2 saws to clear downed trees and brush today. They covered trails 3, 320, and 324 frim Baldwin South to 8 mile near Woodland Park. There were quite a few leaners and decent size trees across the trail we were able to clean up. There is still a good base on most sections that will make a good hard ice base when it cools down and we get some snow. There were quite a few ruts from trucks and atvs that will need filling when we get some snow. If forecasters are right, we may be out grooming tomorrow night! Keep up the snow dances!
Reminder, we will be opening, brushing and signing trail 19 from trail 320 west towards Hart January 1st. We are looking for more help to open gates and clear trees ahead of the grooming tractor that will be coming right behind. With the snow coming, we will likely be using snowmobiles and pulling a sled with sign posts, saws, augers and gear. Please reach out if you are available to help. #baldwinarea #snowphotos
