Munising Area Trail Report – 01/23
MUNISING AREA UPDATE via Alger County SORVA – 01/23 TRAIL REPORT – Saturday, 01-23-2021 KEEP THE SNOW COMING! Not a big change from yesterday’s report. Overall groomed trail conditions are good. We again received a few inches of new blowing and drifting snow yesterday but sun forecast for today. Grooming last night included all of Trail 8 and Trail 7 from Christmas South to Buckhorn Road and Trail 418. Trail 7 heading South starts thinning South of Doe Lake Road with reports of some gravel mix closer to CR440. Trail 422 has vehicles still driving on Miners Castle Road and between M-28 and H-58 there are few large depressions. Trail 417 will be rocky and needs much more snow before it can be set. More snow is also needed to fill in underlying trail defects in areas so keep an eye out for that surprise hole in the trail. If out riding please avoid hard throttle starts and digging holes so we can continue to build a clean flat base that will hold. Please be patient as we continue to work on getting these trails set. Continue the snow dances and Stay Tuned for updates!

Have to say that much of the trail is getting to be in decent shape. The fresh snow tonight helps out a lot, and more coming today. There are some areas that are still bumpy because we just don’t have enough snow to fully fill them in yet. Also there are 2 wet areas that we are not yet bringing the groomer into. I was able to push a bunch of snow into one of them but we still need more tn finnish it. Over all I would give the trail a fair to good rating. More on the fair side, because it will take time and snow to get it to great. If you venture out on your sled this weekend, keep a watch out for dips and ice chunks as they can come out of no ware fast. Be safe, and ride right. <> REGIONAL TRAIL REPORTS Visit Alger County SORVA Facebook Page >>>> <> Visit Alger County SORVA Trail Report >>>> <> Visit TNT Trenary Northern Trails Facebook Page >>>> <> WEATHER UPDATE via US National Weather Service Marquette Michigan >> A pair of systems will bring a wintry mix of precipitation to the U.P. today into tonight. A clipper will spread a mix of rain, snow, and freezing rain across the area this morning, changing to all rain from west to east as temperatures climb above freezing in the afternoon, reaching as high as the mid 50s in the west. A cold front then drops across the U.P. and brings another round of mixed precip tonight, changing to all snow towards Sunday morning. Generally expect minimal snow amounts across most of the U.P., but some spots in the Keweenaw and the east could pick up 1-3” through Sunday morning. A glaze of ice will also be possible in a few spots this morning and again tonight. #miweather #keweenaw #westernup #marquette #munising #seney #newberry #soo #straitsareaA pair of systems will bring a wintry mix of precipitation to the U.P. today into tonight.

Alger SORVA pulled a day shift assist and smashed down our problem areas with the Bison today, but that didn’t stop us from getting into a bind with too much snow! The tunnel under 41 had a 3’ (settled height) drift down the entire length and it was too much to push through. We are close to the roof of the machine during normal operas we scrape it down close to the bottom. One of our operators threw his personal track loader on a trailer and came to the rescue. Between the track loader and the Deere, we were able to clear the tunnel out and get back to grooming. These guys go to all lengths to keep operations moving forward. #munising #snowphotos WEATHER UPDATE via US National Weather Service Marquette Michigan >> Mostly dry conditions save for pockets of drizzle are expected today behind this morning's wintry mix.
