HARBOR SPRINGS AREA UPDATE via Harbor Springs Snowmobile Club – 01/15
Our trails are in bad shape, it’s rained almost all day today and has been in the high 30’s. The rain is supposed to turn to snow tonight but it’s not looking like we are going to get much.
HARBOR SPRINGS AREA UPDATE via Harbor Springs Snowmobile Club >> Thank you to everyone who came out for the 61st Annual Moose Jaw Safari! We had about 175 sleds leave the barn and nearly 300 by the time we reached the town hall. It turned into a beautiful day, with the sun even making an appearance. Our club members worked hard all week preparing the bean soup and getting everything ready, and we truly appreciate such an amazing turnout. #harborsprings#petoskey#snowphotos... See MoreSee Less
KEWEENAW PENINSULA UPDATE via Western & Southern UP Trail Reports – 01/15
Jeff Leary, Andy Burns and crew just shared these photos with us after enjoying a stop at Omer’s Golf Course Bar, Restaurant, and Rental Cabins of Trail 3 from Mass City to South Range.
They said, Trail 3 from Mass City to South Range was good to fair. It got ugly when we got North of South Range. There are some bare corners coming out of Mass City. We enjoyed a great lunch at Omar’s. Do your snow dances!
It’s awesome to se people out making the best out of their trips!

KEWEENAW PENINSULA UPDATE via Keweenaw Trail Reports >> W❄️W! What an amazing week it has been on the trails! The first half of the week was unusually quiet as far as traffic and the trails seriously couldn’t have been better! As we move into the weekend, traffic is definitely picking up but trails have still been in great shape! Huge thank you to all of the clubs and groomer operators! Ryan Bennet and Nikki McGill set out to enjoy some of the trails this morning from Krupps Resort and they weren’t disappointed! Ryan shared these photos with us and said, “Have had a GREAT day so far! Ran down 3 to 12, over to 174 down to Sidnaw. Back up 109 through the Sturgeon River Gorge, ran up to Church in the Valley Bar. Will be taking 109 back to Twin Lakes. What a great 160+ mile day!” This weekend and upcoming week’s forecast includes fresh snow and colder temps each day! Just what ever sledder ordered! Thanks for sharing Ryan! #keweenaw#snowphotos...
