NEWBERRY AREA UPDATE via TASA Tahquamenon Area Snowmobile Association >> 01/31
Off like a herd of turtles!
8PM.
O.K. for those that would like to express your opinion on the condition of 9 coming out of Newberry, we know, we’re kinda good at this, and we know people😉
I would also invite you to go ride it right now, and get back with us.
( and it’ll be hit again yet tonight )
I’d also like to say, what we need to do to this trail tonight to remove what you rode up and down, and up and down, and up and down on, requires a great deal of focus, leaving Newberry with all that traffic was absolutely no fun, and we don’t do the trail justice wig wagging around sleds, it would be self defeating doing this during the day and there’d just be that many more of you bottle necking with us!
9Pm
The ride in and out of Windy Corners., now perfect, it was ugly.
945
Pretty much all ugly, like the morning after a three day!
TROUT LAKE AREA UPDATE via The Rail House-Trout Lake MI >> Attempt #2... we made the entire loop around the lake. Use caution as there is a downed tree on the backside of the lake. We did not have a chainsaw and were unable to move it on our own. Visibility is better and there are a lot of sleds out. The snow is DEEP. If I had to guess I would say we got 20"+ of snow. Be safe. Be prepared and do not ride alone. Buckhorn, Trout Lake is open and so is the gas station Special thanks to RAD Rentals! Our family from Florida is enjoying the snow and their lessons in being a Yooper. Check them out for snowmobile and gear rentals!! #troutlake #newberry #snowphotosAttempt #2... we made the entire loop around the lake.

TROUT LAKE - EASTERN U.P. UPDATE via The Rail House-Trout Lake MI >> Welp... we had to give it a shot but only made it a few miles before we turned around and headed back in. The wind makes it hard to tell exactly how much snow we have gotten in the last 24hrs but its pretty significant. Roads are NOT passable. Please don't try to go out until the county trucks are able to do a pass or 2. If you are familiar with our area, this pic was taken on Huckleberry road on the South side of the lake. #troutlake #newberry #snowphotosWelp... we had to give it a shot but only made it a few miles before we turned around and headed back in.

HARBOR SPRINGS AREA UPDATE via Harbor Springs Snowmobile Club – 01/31
All three groomers are out tonight. We had warm weather and sunshine the last few days which melted down some of our base. So far reports are that the snow is thin north of Carp Lake & there are some spots in the woods that are getting dirty. Overall there’s still plenty of snow to ride & it looks like more is on its way tomorrow night.
We have been noticing that some corners are getting bermed up from people taking the inside. Remember to RIDE RIGHT, you’re not the only one on the trails.
