Harbor Springs Area Trail Report – 03/01
HARBOR SPRINGS AREA UPDATE via Harbor Springs Snowmobile Club – 03/01
Unfortunately we didn’t get anywhere near the amount of snow they were predicting, we got about 2 1/2” of snow in Harbor Springs followed by rain. There still plenty of snow to ride into Alanson, Pellston & Larks Lake, getting to Carp Lake / Mackinaw is going to be the hardest.
The weather isn’t looking great going forward so get out there while you still can. The trails are rock solid & icy so be careful! Spring like conditions!
With all of that being said at this point we are done grooming until/if we get more snow. With the icy conditions and the curvy hilly trail system we have it’s nearly impossible for our tractors to make it up some of the hills.

FROM US National Weather Service Gaylord Michigan >> Cold overnight temperatures and wet roads could create some slick spots for the Monday morning commute. Be careful of black ice!

Be careful of black ice! Snow chances return for the coastal areas of northern lake Michigan Monday morning as well.
FROM Great Lakes Weather & Climate >> 📡 Statewide radar loop through 10 AM today (11/9) shows our two distinct snowmakers in progress.
The first one is the synoptic (aka "system") snow associated with a low that is moving east through southern Ohio. The counterclockwise flow around the low is shown over Metro Detroit as moisture interacts with decreasing temps, leading to this morning's snowfall.
Over the U.P. and Lake Michigan, the north winds are ushering in the coldest air of the season, which activates lake effect snow and transitions to the second portion of this snow event. Counties in the corner of southwest lower Michigan, northern Indiana and Illinois are set to receive a firehose of lake effect over the next 24-36 hrs, resulting in accumulations that could push one foot.
Portions of northern lower Michigan and the Saginaw Bay region are also set to receive lake effect snowfall through this evening, with amounts of 3-6 inches possible, with isolated higher amounts. #miweather #keweenaw #westernup #newberry #soo #gaylord #cadillac #traversecity #petoskey

Let's look at the several areas getting heavy snow over the next few days. The snow areas develop at different time frames. HARBOR SPRINGS UPDATE via Harbor Springs Snowmobile Club >> 2025 Ice Storm Damage. The destruction to our trail system is overwhelming, and it will take an army to clean it up. Whether you ride these trails on a snowmobile, side by side, four-wheeler, drive them in your truck, hunt these woods, walk, or bike them, we will need your help. We have a meeting this Thursday at the Harbor Barn with the Mud Brothers & Beach’s Up North Tavern to get plans together for a trail clean up on 4/26. #harborsprings #petoskey
