Harbor Springs Area Trail Report – 02/07
HARBOR SPRINGS AREA UPDATE via Harbor Springs Snowmobile Club >> 02/07 Happy Saturday! We had all three groomers out last night & all of our trails were groomed. Overall the trails are in great shape. There is still an active logging operation on 71/Chadderdon Road, please slow down in that area. Don’t forget to stop into Northwood Family Restaurant tomorrow, they have a chicken wing special and are donating 10% of their proceeds all day to our club. Thank you Northwoods!! This weekend is also the Elk’s Nuts Ride, they are a great group of guys that ride to raise funds to end prostate cancer.

Low visibilities will be possible for a few hours, especially in eastern upper Michigan, right around morning drive time. Accumulations will be less than 2 inches; places near and south of M-32 will see little if any accumulation. Milder temperatures will be seen Wednesday and Thursday, especially in northern lower Michigan. Snow and rain chances will increase, and mostly rain is forecast for Thursday. Sharply colder air returns for Friday. #miweather #gaylord #cadillac #benzie #traversecity #petoskeyA quick shot of snow will cross far northern Michigan this morning.

HARBOR SPRINGS AREA UPDATE via Harbor Springs Snowmobile Club >> We had two groomers out last night and groomed from the Harbor Barn to Pellston & Alanson along with the Railroad grade from Alanson to Mackinaw. We will have another groomer heading out on the west side tonight. Overall the trails are in good shape considering it’s March 23rd! The worst areas of our system are where our trails run along side dirt roads, which would be Palmer Road, Teal Road, & Camp/Ely Bridge Road. Thankfully they are short sections & there are ways to avoid them completely. WEATHER UPDATE via US National Weather Service Gaylord Michigan >> Early morning rain and snow showers will exit, with dry weather from early afternoon on. Mainly dry conditions are expected tonight and Monday, though we will be a little cooler on Monday. There is a chance for snow showers late Monday night into Tuesday morning (especially in the eastern UP), and again on Wednesday. Rain and snow are likely Wednesday night into Thursday, and colder weather is expected behind that system for the end of the work week. #miweather #gaylord #cadillac #benzie #traversecity #petoskey #soo #newberryEarly morning rain and snow showers will exit, with dry weather from early afternoon on.

WEATHER UPDATE via US National Weather Service Gaylord Michigan >> Snow tapers this evening, leaving drizzle and freezing drizzle across eastern upper Michigan, which could lead to a glaze of ice. For northern lower, areas of drizzle will transition to a band of rain showers later tonight, perhaps ending as some snow showers / flurries. Calmer but cooler weather ahead the next couple days before the next batch of light wintry precipitation arrives Tuesday. #miweather #gaylord #cadillac #benzie #traversecity #petoskeySnow tapers this evening, leaving drizzle and freezing drizzle across eastern upper Michigan, which could lead to a glaze of ice.

As of now the weather is looking good for being able to groom again before the weekend. This weekend is the last of the season and the first time in a long time we’ve been able to ride this late. #harborsprings #petoskey #snowphotos
