Overall Trails are in Good condition with bitter cold bellow zero temperatures. The Deere continues to work overtime with one machine still down. We also still have neighboring clubs helping out with covering trails. The team is doing a very thorough hydraulic flush and expect to have the Prinoth back on the trails tonight.
The hazardous water holes on Trail 418 are starting to freeze in but still ride and cross with extreme caution (Map in images showing locations). Signs now mark both locations. Keep a close eye on conditions as you ride and stay right. Stay tuned for updates!

MUNISING AREA UPDATE via TNT Trenary Northern Trails – 1/31
Todd had a good night out in the cold temps last night. Trail has set up hard with the cold temps we are finally having. With how our section of trail 8 has been the last few days, we are taking a break from grooming our trail tonight, and will be assisting S.O.R.V.A. instead, to help them get caught up. I am told they will be back to full force again today, but they do have some catching up to do. So we will help them out all we can. Looks like a nice weekend coming up, get out and ride while the conditions are good. Ride right, be safe, and have fun out there.

WEATHER UPDATE via US National Weather Service Marquette Michigan >> Lake effect snow showers are expected downwind of Lake Superior through Sunday, impacting the northwest wind snowbelt areas. This snow will be very susceptible to blowing in the wind, resulting in localized visibility reductions below 1 mile at times.

WEATHER UPDATE via US National Weather Service Marquette Michigan >> A cold front will move across the U.P this evening. Light snow will accompany the front but generally less than an inch is expected. Behind the front temperatures will fall into the single digits above and below zero. This combined with gusty winds will bring wind chills down into the teens and twenties below zero. A Cold Weather Advisory is in effect for Gogebic and Iron counties tonight through Saturday morning. Lake effect snow will develop behind the front in the northwest wind snowbelts with several inches expected. Those headed outside tonight or traveling should be prepared for bitter cold and snow (in the northwest wind snowbelts). #miweather #keweenaw#westernup#marquette#munising #seney #newberry #soo #straitsarea...
