Trails in an overall good to very good condition. Operators were reporting very good results with our trails primarily in very good condition east of M94. The west side Trails are in very good to good condition. Trail 7 South of Buckhorn was not groomed last night due to our Pisten Bully going down again. A casting on the cooling fan clutch broke again. It will be down for at least 2 days. Hopefully parts arrive before the weekend, otherwise….. We will do what we can with the Programs Spare Bully and our club owned John Deere 7130. As far as the Big Deere still awaiting a return delivery date. Lets hope the great trail conditions don’t drop off too quickly. Ride to the Right and Stay Tuned for updates!
MUNISING AREA UPDATE via TNT Trenary Northern Trails – 3/2
Trails are holding up very well! Base is thin on the west end by Little Lake so we will see some deterioration on sunny days now that the sun is up longer. Looks like a little more snow due today and Saturday, so we should expect very good trails until a brief warmup on Sunday. Ride right and ride safe!
MUNISING AREA UPDATE via TNT Trenary Northern Trails >> Another run last night as we start wrapping up the season. We are running minimal runs in order to keep the trail smooth and save the snow for the rest of the season. Trail is ice and is grooming out as such. We will keep doing the best we can with what we have to get through the end of the season. Ride right and ride safe! #munising#snowphotos... See MoreSee Less

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.

MUNISING AREA UPDATE via TNT Trenary Northern Trails >> The struggle is real! 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...
