Traverse City Trail Report – 01/22
TRAVERSE CITY AREA UPDATE via Grand Traverse Snowmobile Club – 01/22 We have finally received some snow with more snow in the forecast. I don’t think we received as much snow as Kalkaska and Gaylord but there should be plenty of snow for the trails. We will be resuming grooming and with the lake affect snow in the forecast we should have a decent weekend. I will do an update after I get a couple of reports from our groomers. But it looks like we have turned the corner and snow is in the forecast. <> TRAVERSE CITY AREA UPDATE via Ranch Rudolf – 01/22 1/22/21 Update <> Grand Traverse Area Snowmobile Club on Facebook >>>> <> Area Reports: Grand Traverse Area Snowmobile Club on Facebook >>>> Blue Sky Rentals on Facebook >>>> Visit Grand Traverse Area Snowmobile Club Trail Report on MSA >>>> <> WEATHER UPDATE via Michigan Storm Chasers >> Snow and ice return tonight, and continue through midday April 4th, 2026.
