Trail Reports


Boyne Area Trail Report – Mountainside Inn – 02/21

Petoskey Snowmobile Club – 02/21
Current Trail Conditions: Good

The trails are still in really good shape, even with yesterday’s sun and warm temps. The worst parts are where you have to ride a roadside. All the roads in the area are clear and dry so you have to get your sled off the shoulder and into the right-of-way (i.e. the ditch) in order to stay on snow. That’s where the groomer cannot go so those areas may need a little extra finesse to ride. Other than that, all the northern trails still have a good amount of snow and are in great shape. Almost all the northern trails were groomed Saturday night.

I don’t have a recent report on the Larry’s Run and I don’t think it was groomed Saturday night. It’s probably safe to assume that it is a little rough this morning (Sunday). We’ll get it taken care of as soon as we can.

Current Trail Conditions: Good

The trails south of alba are getting a bit tan,but there is no dirt showing. The base is groomable with ice under it,so very little dirt is being brought up.The snow is old and granular though so it does not pack well or hold a groom.It is good rideing if you dont mind the light tan snow.The groomers will be running daily.

Gaylord Area Trail Report – Ray’s Retreat Country Inn – 02/21

The trail is not looking so good. At least the sunshine is behind clouds right now. Trail 7 is a mess… lots of waterholes, down to dirt/mud. Ice along other sections. We desperately need snow. It is in the forecast, but will it be enough?

The DNR was active yesterday along the railroad tracks. Several of our guests received tickets. A reminder: you will get ticketed for riding 10 feet within the railroad. They don’t care if you never knew that this is a law, and they don’t care that it was the only spot with ridable snow. Also remember you can only cross the railroad at designated areas, or that will get you a ticket also. Hey, the state has to make money anyway they can. I know they were making money yesterday. Many received a ticket.

Lets all concentrate hard! SNOW.
