Grand Marais Trail Report – 03/19

Ok, enough already! Really?? Spring is two days away and we’re in the middle of a blizzard! Again! Well, I must say, I do enjoy weather like this! As of this morning, the official snow total was 217 inches for the season. Since then we’ve gotten at least another foot, whoo hoo! So much for the forecasts that said we’d get 8 to 18 by Thursday morning! As of 4:00 this afternoon, they are saying light snow will transition from moderate to heavy!? Where they heck are they? It’s been coming down like crazy all day. I had a hard time finding my way home from town in the white outs and the winds haven’t even kicked up yet.

One thing I do have to report is that we have another groomer down – that makes two out of commission. Thank you, Seney Snowmobile Association for helping us out. With their help, all the trails will still be groomed. This crazy snow has really pushed our groomers to the max this season.

Base: 36 or more inches

Snowfall Past 24 hours: 5 inches

Last Grooming: Last Night and early this morning

Current Trail Conditions: Good to Excellent

Grand Marais Trail Report – 03/13

Here’s the scoop on the trails, despite the warm weather and rain, they are in Good to Very Good condition! I say good because of course there is some ice in spots but nothing major to be concerned with. The groomers were busy yesterday cutting down moguls and cleaning branches off the trails. They even made an extra run into town early in the day to smooth things up. We received several inches of light, fluffy snow yesterday and some blowing last night so expect to find drifts in the open areas that developed after the groomers went through. We’ll get those smoothed out tonight. There is still lots of riding and more snow is in the forecast through the weekend. Come on UP and enjoy one last blast!
