Newberry Trail Report – 01/04

A short video of trail 498 over the weekend. Thanks for all the hard work our grooming team put in over the busy holiday weekend.

<>

1/2

We will groom down to Epoufette, out to the Pine Stump and County Rd 500 this afternoon into the night. A friendly reminder that ATV’s/ORV’s are NOT permitted on the groomed snowmobile trails.

We picked up 4-6 light fluffy snow yesterday throughout the day into the evening. The observation of the trail conditions are based on the amount of snow and traffic. 85% of the trail system is good. There are good spots and bad spots, however the majority of the bad is just the large amount of traffic. We are giving our best to fix it up with the amount of snow we have. We will see much colder temperatures this week which will help freeze it in. As always we want to encourage safe and responsible riding!! Please ride with caution.

Ride Right and Be Safe!!

All groomers will be heading out around 1:00pm today.

Trail 9: Groomed last night and will groom again tonight. Newberry to the Wolf Inn is Fair. The Wolf Inn North is Fair to Good.

Trail 45: Trail was groomed last night and we will run it again today to County Road 500. Beyond the 500 across the swamp is not frozen enough to open the gate.

CAUTION AREA!!!! There is logging off of Trail 45 before Camp Snort.

Trial 9/2 South: Groomed last night to Trout Lake and we will groom again today down to Epoufette. There is a water spot along the tracks between H-40 and Trout Lake Use CAUTION!

Your grooming team from the TASA Barn!!

Curfew in the Village of Newberry is 11:00pm to 7:00am.

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.

Munising Area Trail Report – 01/04

MUNISING AREA UPDATE via Alger County Sorva – 1/4

TRAIL REPORT – Tuesday, January 4, 2022 TRAILS LOOKING GOOD!

No new snow, lighter traffic and a trail system in overall good condition, fair to poor in towns and near roadways. There are some icy corners and gravel mix snow in the outlying areas so ride with caution. Groomer Operators were again getting really good results last night. We sent the Pisten Bully through Trail 419 to clean-up and set the cut lines last night. We also staged our smaller John Deere in Munising so it will be ready to primarily maintain Trail 419.

Other than that we have a snow storm coming tomorrow so lets hope for the needed 4 to 8 inches of snow being forecast. Ride safe, stay right and enjoy! Keep doing the Cold Weather Snow Dancing and Stay Tuned for updates!

Michigan Snowmobile Trail Report

MUNISING AREA UPDATE via TNT Trenary Northern Trails >> We are all cleaning out after all of this snow. Sounds like great snow coverage from end to end. That’s the good part! The bad part is we have so many wind prone areas with heavy drifting, that we need to let it settle for a day and get some sleds over it before we send out the groomer. It is the downfall of being a one groomer club. We don’t have the availability of running tandem to quickly recover from a storm like this. But…. This is the perfect time for all of the “adventurous” riders to break trail in GREAT SNOW!!! Just beware of fallen trees. Carry a saw and report back to us if there are any big ones down that need serious attention. We will report back as soon as we get back out!

MUNISING AREA UPDATE via Alger County SORVA >> Well, we got snow. All day yesterday it rained. Transition to snow was last night 8pm.
We are working on getting out of our homes to get to the groomers. 50 to 60 mph winds all night and still blowing hard. Power has been out. If you are brave enough to go out in this wind, bring your chainsaws! It is going to be a solid day of clearing trees for us. The roads are currently blocked by trees and power lines. The picture shows my driveway that i plowed at 5am. Plowing in progress. We are doing all we can. Helping with tree removal would be very much appreciated. Be careful out there. #munising #snowphotosWell, we got snow. All day yesterday it rained. Transition to snow was last night 8pm.
