The swamp south of town is closed of course and the ride from the river mouth to town is really rough. I`ve had reports that the Falls trail #45 opened up. We will close the gates on that today. Trails #452 and #453 are still decent and plenty ridable but are gettin just a touch choppy. Trail #8 to Pine Stump is the same. We`ve had a great season this year, just get out and enjoy the last weekend and take it easy and you`ll have a blast!!!! Also, I`ve had reports on people trying to get out to their property in the woods by vehicle and gettin buried. Don`t try it yet folks, there`s still WAY too much snow in da woods!!! Its gonna be at least a couple weeks (maybe more) before you can make it by truck. Its a very expensive towing bill if you try it!!!!! Peace out…….Groomer Chris <> <> Visit Paradise Area Night Riders on Facebook >>>> <> WEATHER UPDATE via Michigan Storm Chasers >> Snow and ice return tonight, and continue through midday April 4th, 2026.

30 degrees this morning under a bright blue sky. We did not get all the snow the weather guessers were calling for the last couple days. “They” were saying up to a foot….we got about an inch….LOL. The forecast looks like temps in the mid 30`s and a rain/snow mix for the next few days too. I`ve been gettin a lot of questions about the conditions and if we plan on gettin the groomers out. The trails are still decent and there is still a lot of snow in the woods so there is riding to be had. We do not have any plans on gettin the groomers out tho. With the temps and soft conditions predicted we will do more damage than good.
OK, we had a great season. God Bless and see ya`ll next December.Postings From Regional Pages On Facebook

No joke here still alot of snow
There aren’t many people around but the ones that are here are enjoy good trails
TASA Tahquamenon Area Snowmobile Associationgroomed 9 one last time last night
We have parking if you want to ride for the day
We will be closed this Saturday Sunday and Monday for Easter
Let’s all hope spring comes soon now #newberry #snowphotos
It’s one of those perfect, peaceful starts — fresh groomed trails, clean air, and that quiet calm before the day picks up. You can almost hear the snow calling your name.
Trails are looking mint today… 👌
Are you squeezing in one last ride before the season wraps up? 🏁
Or have you already hung up the helmet and put away the sled for the year?
Drop a ❄️ if you’re riding today — let’s see who’s still out there making the most of it! #newberry #snowphotos
From early mornings to late nights, through blowing snow and brutal conditions, our groomers showed up every single time and delivered perfection. The trails this year? Absolutely unreal. 🙌
Let’s make some noise for the people who make it all happen 👇
👏 THANK YOU to every groomer who put in the hours, the grit, and the passion. You don’t always get the spotlight, but trust me—it does NOT go unnoticed.
If you rode the trails this season, drop a comment and show your appreciation:
👇👇👇
• Where was your favorite ride this year?
• Best trail conditions you experienced?
• Got a shoutout for a groomer? Tag them!
Let’s blow this up and give these legends the recognition they deserve. 🚨 #newberry #snowphotos
Chad, you have to answer them. Im busy.
Just have the drag spread out low and lean, nothing blade worthy yet, hauling hiny (9ish) keeps it cycling through pretty good, leavin, ribbons.
Mostly just out here looking for disasters before that lady shows up! 😉 keep you posted. #newberry #snowphotos
A lot of snow on the ground still
3ft on the gauge up the road
This is a video of trail 8 west of county road 407
Grooming is over but traffic is low. If you want to go have a little fun there’s definitely snow #newberry #snowphotos
9:43PM Trail 9
Yuk! Second stop sign out, pretty ugly.
People were glad to see us from the git go, I get it!
Having to dig pretty deep with the blade in the corners followed by an aggressive drag, so heads up till we get back for any curbs I leave behind, still over 9ft wide a pass so you should be able to squeak through 😉
Othe than that, way cool sunset!
Not too much traffic, all pulled over 🥰
It's cleaning up very nice. I'll keep you posted.
11:18pm
Just finished Wolf Inn, North Store, Trails End Lodging, moved alot of snow down in the corners, lots, still digging deep.
Mostly ribbony, leveled off some intersections, enjoying my ride 😁
Just turned north, Pine Stump bound, keep you posted.
7:24am
Back down to the McMillan Leg.
After I left Windy Corners I never saw another sled, still haven't 😊 turning out pretty well, weird snow, thawed, froze, rinse, repeat it seems, kinda like artificial.
Anyway removed the ugly both sides, a few Corners could still use another lap, but they'll be fine. #newberry #snowphotos
Looks like a beautiful day today!!
Nights are still getting cold so the trails are hard to start
It looks to be good riding until the end of grooming season Wednesday
There will be a lot of snow in the backcountry way into April (probably late April) #newberry #snowphotos
