There is logging on Trail #45 North of Skyline Dr. for 4 to 5 miles. There is also logging South of M-123 on Trail #45.

Logging on Trail #498 North of Co. Rd. 455, be careful in these areas, as the trail may be plowed.

It has come to my attention that there is no fuel symbol on the snowmobile trail map for the North Store. The North Store is located at Wolf Inn Jct. They are open from 9 A.M. to 9 P.M.

We need more snow! And cold weather.

FYI: There will not be gas at Rainbow Lodge this year as they are closing for the winter. There is a gas pump logo on the trail map, but they will be CLOSED. The map is new for this year,and I recieved the information about Rainbow Lodge after the maps went to the printer.

Cadillac Area Trail Report – Cadillac Trails – 01/18

Wednesday, January 18, 2012

Snow accumulation: 8 inches*

The groomers are running again today doing what they can with what they have. They will be staying off the White Pine trail until there is a significant build up of snow.

We have a winter storm advisory in effect for this evening with a possibility of 2 to 5 inches arriving before noon Thursday.

Speaking of the White Pine trail, some of you may have already seen the signs on the White Pine Trail asking snowmobiles to stay off the trail unless there is atleast 4 inches of snow. The signs posted by the State Park staff read "Help protect our resource, please refrain from operating snowmobiles when less than four inches of snow cover the trail." We were assured by the State Park staff these signs were posted not as an enforcement tool but as an educational tool. The "four inch" rule has been in effect in State Parks for years.

Staging areas: Our trail system has numerous staging areas for your convenience:

Tustin
Bristol
33 Rd (Off M55)
44 Rd (Off M115)
27 Rd (Off M55)
Caberfae(Off M55)

Have fun and ride safely.
