Michigan Trail Report


Traverse City Trail Report – Blue Sky Snowmobile Rentals – 01/03

We need more snow!

Unfortunately our local trails are in poor condition. Icy trails are unsafe. Dirt/gravel spots on the trail can cause snowmobile damage. We need trail conditions to improve before we can start renting.

Keep doing that snow dance!

TRAVERSE CITY AREA UPDATE via Grand Traverse Area Snowmobile Club >> Please join us in a moment of silence to say goodbye to our cherished friend. He arrived in early December for a few weeks and then left us only to return in January with vengeance. He brought smiles to all our faces as he continued to pile up on our trails. Even though we rode him hard, kicking him out of the corners and moguling him up, he didn't mind. He knew that groomers would bring him back to life. Now, his mother has decided he's had enough fun. She's turning him to water with 50+ degree weather along with thunderstorms. There is always hope that he returns for one last ride, but if he doesn't, we will impatiently wait until next December to see our frosted friend again. #traversecity #snowphotos ...
