Harbor Springs Trail Report – 02/02

HARBOR SPRINGS AREA UPDATE via Harbor Springs Snowmobile Club​ – 2/1

We groomed both the east & west sides last night and the railroad grade was groomed Sunday night. The trails turned out pretty flat but we are running out of snow to work with. Todays high was 48 degrees and we don’t have any snow in the forecast until Sunday.
To all the downstaters, send that snow storm up our way tomorrow!!

Paradise Area Trail Report – 02/02

February 2, 2022

18 degrees this morning with some on and off lake effect, some of it heavy at times. The weather guessers are calling for a couple inches for today though. It did hit 41 here at my place yesterday so we lost a little snow but not much.

We`ve got all trails groomed up so with that warm day yesterday everything is hard and flat! If we could get 6 inches it would make things perfect! It does look like we`ll get an inch or two everyday for the next few so this weekend might just be great! Do your best snow dances and we`ll see!

About all I have for ya`s today.

LET `ER SNOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Groomer Chris
