Newberry Trail Report – 02/20
NEWBERRY AREA UPDATE via Pine Stump – 02/20 I went for a ride yesterday to grand marais. The trail was good until we got outside of grand marais. There’s less snow by town. I think getting in and out of town will be bad in a day or two If you want to do 200 to 300 miles a day might not be your time. If you want to cruise around you’ll be fine. If it was me I would take seasonal roads and fire lanes Get some ice scratchers they will help a ton. We are still getting cold nights so things will be set up hard <> <> NEWBERRY AREA UPDATE via TASA Tahquamenon Area Snowmobile Association – 02/19 Winter came back in force this weekend. Lake affect areas saw 14 to 18 inches by Sunday Night. We groomed 45 to CR500, 9/2 South to Eppoufette, and 9 North to Holland Lake staging area. 9 gets a little thin as you get closer to Newberry. The gates on 45 are still closed going into the falls as well as into Paradise. <> NEWBERRY AREA UPDATE via Trails End Lodging >> Good Monday Morning from Windy Corners! <> <> <> <> Visit Tahquamenon Area Snowmobile Association Trail Report <> Visit Tahquamenon Area Snowmobile Association on Facebook <> Visit Newberry Area Tourism Association on Facebook <> WEATHER UPDATE via US National Weather Service Marquette Michigan >> Active weather is expected for the remainder of the work week.

10 degrees this morning and cloudy. Mother Nature FINALLY blessed us with a good dumping of snow! We have picked up a solid foot or more in the last 36 hrs. and its been COLD.
Following up from my last report......the tech did finally make it out and went through our computer problems on all 3 machines. 2 of them are up and runnin good now and we just got the parts we need for the third one and that will be good to go today. Now, on to whats been happinin with the trails......
Yesterday we took 2 machines with 4 guys but no drags and headed south on trail #8. We skipped the swamp just south of town and started at the river mouth. We ran across just some minor water holes at the south end of the power line and a touch more severe in the Federal Forest section. We kept the gates closed in the Federal Forest section to give that a chance to tighten up.
Tomorrow we are gonna send the same set up around the Point Trails #452 & #453. The other machine will hit the Pine Stump trail #8 doing a full groom. After we see how all that goes we will hit the Falls trail #45 hopefully by the end of the week. I`m sure ya`ll have seen we have a slight warm up coming this Tues. for a couple days so that will dictate what we do on the Falls trail and the Swamp south of town.
All I have for now Groomer Chris #paradise #newberry
Great job Paul
