Paradise Area Trail Report – 01/12
PARADISE AREA UPDATE via Paradise Area Night Riders – 01/12 1/12/25 Groomer Dave ran the Point trails yesterday and reported it turned out good +. He did not run the Doe Lake rd ridge cause its so thin on snow. Groomer Keith ran the Pine Stump trail and said it turned out good but there are some thin spots also. He told me he had alot of trouble with riders following him around and tearing up his fresh groom. This is one reason we don`t believe in the groomer tracker (aka: groomer chaser) thing. These people just wreck it for everyone else! I am runnin the South trail #8 today and I think I`ll be the only one out, but not 100% sure on that one. In other than trail news………We have a bunch of trail maps if any of the local businesses need any. Just get ahold of one of us, ya`ll know who we are. I want to give a HUGE thank-you to Dan and Monica Millikan for all the groomer snacks, pop and the 30 rack. MUCH appreciated!!!!!!!!

It’s a beautiful start to the day!! #newberry #snowphotos 
If you've been putting off those last few “winter” preps like we have, then there's nothing quite like the first snowfall to give you that little push!
Have a great Sunday- stay warm friends.
Hours (reminder) for all your hardware/ 🔨construction, seasonal ❄️, and ‘just because’ needs!
Sunday: Closed
Monday - Saturday: Open 9:00- 5:00 PM #grandmarais #newberry #snowphotosGot snow? Yep, we do!

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
