Trails are open and legal for riding, however we only have 3″ of lake effect fluff. Groomers are standing by. Please remember in our area trail 5, the White Pine Linear Trail, the DNR asks for a minimum of 4″ so we don’t damage the asphalt. Keep praying for snow and we will keep you updated as we get the season underway.

Caberfae Staging Area–approx.. 12 miles west of Cadillac on M-55 (watch for signs)
Boon Staging Area–park in plowed area south of Boon Grocery
Note: The porta-a-johns were removed from our staging areas today as our contracts on them expired 3-15-13.
