TRAVERSE CITY AREA UPDATE via Sled Solutions >> Winter is holding on, I think this weekend will be good so get after it in Grand Traverse Area Snowmobile Club trails.

Grooming isn't an option due to the temps but fun non the less. #traversecity #snowphotos Road last night plenty of snow but definitely bumpy in spots still had a blast WEATHER UPDATE via US National Weather Service Gaylord Michigan >> A rain/snow mix will depart later this morning, potentially opening the door for some clearing clouds later this afternoon with highs ranging from the upper 30s across the eastern U.P. to the upper 40s/low 50s for those south of M-72.
