Munising Area Trail Report – 01/16
TRAIL REPORT, Monday, January 16, 2023 7:00 a.m. MOTHER NATURE NOT COOPERATING! Warm rainy weather has grooming operations currently on hold with trails in an overall Fair condition. Traffic was up this weekend with warm temps, high winds and sun yesterday. The trails really took a hit losing some snow becoming choppy. The main trails have fair snow cover but soft and sugary. For those die hard riders expect thin areas with dirty snow, gravelly in areas with some icy inside corners. Road crossings and entering towns will have dirty snow and bare pavement. Keep a close eye on conditions as you ride and stay right. We have hazardous water holes on Trail 418 so ride and cross with extreme caution (Map in images showing locations). It is expected to have more wet spots develop with current weather conditions. With this years lower than normal snow conditions we are open to other snow making ideas, the dancing ain’t working too well……. DETAILED REPORT HERE: Today’s Trail Report brought to you by: Munising Motorsports, Shingleton, MI https://www.munisingmotorsports.com/ <> MUNISING AREA UPDATE via TNT Trenary Northern Trails – 01/15 It was a very busy Saturday with plenty of traffic around for the long weekend and the trail took a beating. Even after leaving two hours later than usual we ran into a lot of traffic still out enjoying the day. We expect the west bound side of the trail to get bumpy fairly quickly as just about everyone we passed was happy to be able to get off the beat up side of trail and onto something flat, can’t blame them for that today but without any set up time and about 30 to 40 riders passing us it was already getting bumpy by our return trip. The rest of the trail.and the eastern end are in great shape for Sunday. <> <> <> 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 >> Expect lake effect snow showers today in the north to northwest wind snowbelts.

WEATHER UPDATE via US National Weather Service Marquette Michigan >> Another quickly-moving Clipper will bring a round of widespread, light snow beginning this evening, followed by lingering lake effect snow across the NW wind snow belts for Tuesday. Totals of an inch or less are expected for most of the UP, but where lake effect snow occurs, up to 2-5in of snow is possible tonight through Tuesday evening. As winds pick up early Tuesday, patchy blowing snow may contribute to reduced visibility in the NW wind snow belts.
