DETAILED REPORT HERE: https://www.algersorva.com/trailreport/3-3-2021/ Be sure to patronize and thank your Trail Sponsors! <> MUNISING AREA UPDATE via TNT Trenary Northern Trails – 03/01 Cold weather is back today <> REGIONAL TRAIL REPORTS Visit Alger County SORVA Facebook Page >>>> <> Visit Alger County SORVA Trail Report >>>> <> Visit TNT Trenary Northern Trails Facebook Page >>>> <> MUNISING AREA UPDATE via TNT Trenary Northern Trails >> We are all cleaning out after all of this snow. Sounds like great snow coverage from end to end. That’s the good part! The bad part is we have so many wind prone areas with heavy drifting, that we need to let it settle for a day and get some sleds over it before we send out the groomer. It is the downfall of being a one groomer club. We don’t have the availability of running tandem to quickly recover from a storm like this. But…. This is the perfect time for all of the “adventurous” riders to break trail in GREAT SNOW!!! Just beware of fallen trees. Carry a saw and report back to us if there are any big ones down that need serious attention. We will report back as soon as we get back out! Be safe out there! #munising #snowphotosWe are all cleaning out after all of this snow. Sounds like great snow coverage from end to end. That’s the good part!

We had a limited grooming attempt last night with operators reporting fair results with no new snow, trails set rock hard and mostly un-workable. With that our most of our Trail System is in Overall Fair Condition with some areas poor condition. Machines can only get the tops cut off the rock hard moguls and snow is soft and not setting so trails remain choppy in areas. Trail 8 from Shingleton West to Trail 417, Trail 417 to Brownstone Intersection and Trail 7 from 2 miles South of Christmas South to Buckhorn Road are in Fair condition and a bit choppy. Trail 8 from Shingleton North for about 5 miles, Trail 7 South of Doe Lake Road and Trail 419 from Wetmore to about 2 miles Northwest of Munising are in poor condition. In the towns and along highways you will be finding dirty snow and bare spots. We continue grooming East for Seney on Trail 8 from the Bear Trap intersection to the Trail 43 intersection with fair results improving with more snow as you head East. Day-by-Day changes this time of year so Keep snow dancing, get out and ENJOY what is left of the Trails, Ride Safe and Stay Tuned for updates!

We are working on getting out of our homes to get to the groomers. 50 to 60 mph winds all night and still blowing hard. Power has been out. If you are brave enough to go out in this wind, bring your chainsaws! It is going to be a solid day of clearing trees for us. The roads are currently blocked by trees and power lines. The picture shows my driveway that i plowed at 5am. Plowing in progress. We are doing all we can. Helping with tree removal would be very much appreciated. Be careful out there. #munising #snowphotosWell, we got snow. All day yesterday it rained. Transition to snow was last night 8pm.

We have people out doing what they can. Winds are still ripping. #munising #snowphotosHere is an example of what we are up against. This is South of Christmas.

Widespread snow is beginning to taper off from west to east. Very heavy snow will continue across the central and east into the afternoon. Widespread wind gusts 35-45 mph are common this morning, with gusts 50-60 mph closer to Lake Superior contributing to near zero visibilities, and blowing and drifting snow.
In Marquette and Alger counties, M-28 between US-41 and M-94 is closed. Unless absolutely necessary, travel is strongly discouraged this morning. Stay safe! #miweather #munising #newberry
Stay safe out there! WE HAVE SNOW!!! ❄️❄️🏁 #munising #snowphotos
