TRAIL REPORT: 8:30 a.m., Sunday, 1/22/17
Slow Moving January Thaw – almost gone.
GROOMING OPERATIONS: Dense Fog – operations still on stand-by.
Operations will resume as soon as possible.

TRAIL CONDITIONS: Fair – wet, soft snow with warm weather. We reluctantly brought the Pisten Bully back last night from a Friday trail side repair. Could only pan to minimize base damage in the soft snow. The trails were holding up much better than expected with the weather but it’s not over yet. Please tread lightly if out riding to help save the trail system while this January thaw finishes passing through.

Trail 8 – Fair to Good. Some moguls starting to form.
Trail 7 South – Fair. Some moguls starting to form.
Trail 7 North – Fair, some bare corners as you approach Christmas.
Trail 419W (Munising-Christmas) – Fair. Still use caution due to a few soft spots closer to Munising.
Trail 422 (Miners Castle) – Fair.
Trail 419E (to Trail 8) – Fair.
Trail 419 (Wetmore-Munising) – Fair.

WEATHER: 36 degrees, 2 mph S Winds, Dense Fog. Drizzle forecast through Monday with day and night temperatures above freezing.
Tuesday winds are to shift out of the NW so let’s hope the Lake Effect Snow engine fires back up.
Past 24 Hour Snowfall: 0′ South, 0′ North (approximate)

CAUTIONS, WARNINGS and UPDATES:

CAUTION FOR TRAIL 419:
Standing and flowing water creating soft spots in wet areas of the hills closer to Munising. RIDE WITH CAUTION.

CAUTION FOR TRAIL419 (Munising Wetmore Connector) – Trail 419 connector is OPEN. Please use caution when riding. It’s a congested area with driveway crossings. PLEASE obey all stop signs and give right-of-way to vehicles.

IN TOWN TRAIL ETIQUETTE
Private Property owners allow us to use their land for trail connectors.
PLEASE respect the allowed use by staying on the trail, ride safely and stop at all driveways. PLEASE give vehicles the right of way, especially when they are trying to turn off of the major roadways. Remember Cars have the right of way and you are responsible for any related vehicular accidents. These connectors need annual approval so PLEASE ride with respect and courtesy so we can keep them open year after year!
