MUNISING AREA UPDATE via TNT Trenary Northern Trails >> Groomer operators were checking traffic levels and we had feedback from some drift busters and we will be looking into conditions tomorrow before we pull the trigger on grooming. Conditions are getting more favorable, but the snow isn’t settling fast enough with sleds avoiding the drifts and knocking the air out of them. At 16 thousand pounds, the groomer doesn’t float enough in soft deep snow and we dont have a second machine to self rescue. So bear with us as we constantly monitor and discuss amongst our operators on the earliest optimum time to safely hit the trail. Guaranteed, as soon as we all agree on a green light, you will have a smooth trail! #munising #snowphotos Trials are nice off trial is even better WEATHER UPDATE via US National Weather Service Marquette Michigan >> A clipper low will bring widespread light snow to the U.P today with generally less than an inch of snowfall. The exception will be in the northwest wind snowbelts where up to 4” of dry fluffy snow is possible. It will be cold for New Years Eve and those headed out should dress accordingly; temperatures in the single digits and breezy conditions will result in sub zero wind chills. #miweather #keweenaw #westernup #marquette #munising #seney #newberry #soo #straitsareaA clipper low will bring widespread light snow to the U.P today with generally less than an inch of snowfall.

Grooming started yesterday with Trail 8 from 7 miles North of Shingleton West to Trail 417 and Trail 7 North into Christmas have been groomed. Overall groomed trail conditions are good. A little more snow is needed to fill in underlying trail defects in areas so keep an eye out for that surprise hole in the trail. Ungroomed areas have snow and are fair. Grooming continues and we will keep you posted as setting of additional trails is completed. Last night we received another 4 to 5 inches of new snow. We still have the daily few inches of snow in the forecast though today has high winds – lets hope trees are not coming down. If out riding please avoid hard throttle starts and digging holes so we can build a clean flat base that will hold. Note that Trail 417 will be rocky and needs much more snow before it can be set. Please be patient as it will take a few days to get these trail setting grooming runs completed. Continue the snow dances and Stay Tuned for updates!Postings From Regional Pages On Facebook
