TRAVERSE CITY FOOD AND TRAILS UPDATE via Ranch Rudolf – 12/31
And update on snowmobile trails:
Groomers went out today smoothing and packing trails. They are lightly covered and icy is places. Certainly not in great shape, but sadly some of the best we’ve seen so far this season- really wanting to see some more snow! But riders are out and about these last couple days.
– An update on our weekend hours:
Friday, January 1st: Closed Saturday, January 2nd: 12pm-4pm for beverage service and outdoor food options Sunday, January 3rd: 12pm-3pm for beverage service and outdoor food options Our outdoor food options consist of soup, chili and foods you can roast over an open fire in our fireplace (hot dogs, s’mores etc). Masks are required inside and as such food and beverage must be taken outside to eat/drink. We will have an outdoor fire pit going as well.
Happy New Year! Hoping 2021 brings health and happiness to us all, as well as the ability to do business as usual sooner than later. ..
