Paradise Area Trail Report – 12/31
December 31, 2021 28 degrees this morning and cloudy. Haven`t had any new snow to speak of in the last few days. It does look like the weather will switch up to the better side of sno-mo by the end of today and into the new year. Good riddance to 2021! Here`s what we`ve been up to since my last report a few days ago…….. Its been torture to see other clubs videos that are close to us out grooming! We just don`t have the snow they have. We did get out 2 machines w/o drags yesterday and headed out trail #45 to the Falls. We are trying REALLY HARD to get this trail froze in. We spent ALL DAY working on it and got `er pretty good. The plan is to bring a drag down it tomorrow and hopefully we can get `er open! We did leave the gates closed for now. Sorry to say thats all we have accomplished the last few days…again…lack of snow. Lets hope 2022 comes rippin in!!!

Minus 5 degrees this morning under a cloudy sky. No new snow in the last 24 hrs. but we do have about 3 feet of snow on the ground so no worries...LOL. Here`s whats been happening since my last report a couple days ago......
No bad news...the machines have been running beautifully....Mother Nature has been cooperating perfectly....and our trails are EXCELLENT!!!!
The Falls trail #45, the Point trails #452 & #453 and the South trail #8 all fall into that catagory. The only blip on the radar is on the Pine Stump trails #8 & #9 but it is only minor. Our section of trail #9 is still being plowed down from the Stump to the East branch of the Two Heart by the loggers. It is no big deal, just take trail #8 around instead of #9, just like the old days. Its a touch longer but you`re out there to enjoy the ride.....right? On the bright side, they are done up by Crisp Point but it will take us a couple trips to get that back in great shape.
Where is everybody?? Its been awful slow around here. COME ON U.P., You are missing out!!
LET `ER SNOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Several feet of the snow on the ground up here

A little warm up coming it will be a great time to ride the trails are perfect!! #newberry #snowphotos
10:02 PM 10.4 to second stop sign, so far it all looks like the curve there, all of it, think I learned something in the Can Am earlier today. 🤓 #newberry #snowphotos
Started with an awesome care package of snacks/gloves from
Brian Weigel
Dug out our deep snow Dubie Drag
(It’s time)
6 club members came down to maintenance the machines…
Now we send them out!!!!!!
Great job , Great Team efforts! #curtisarea #newberry #snowphotos
Looks like more snow again today. Plowed once and looks like I’ll be plowing tomorrow morning as well
I told people I thought we were going to have a big winter like 2014, it’s sure looking that way half way through
If you haven’t been up here you’re truly missing out! #newberry #snowphotos
9 degrees this morning and snowing. I picked up 5-6" of fresh snow on my deck from last night and it looks like its supposed to snow for the next couple of days too!!!
Our entire system was groomed yesterday and there`s only one way to describe it......EXCELLENT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Now, those of you who follow me know I don`t use that word very often, but I ain`t kiddin, it doesn`t get any better than this. The swamp south of town, the Falls trail, ALL of our low land trails are better than I`ve seen in a long time!!!!!
If you don`t have plans on gettin U.P. here.....make `em. It won`t last forever.
Thats all I have to report.....one word.....EXCELLENT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
LET `ER SNOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It’s one of those peaceful, picture-perfect mornings—fresh snow falling, quiet trails, and that crisp UP air. What more could you ask for?
Where is your day taking you? 🛷
Sounds like a perfect day for a ride out to Windy Corners! WOLF INN Grill & Spirits and North Store Follow Me Outfitters will be open and ready—swing in, warm up, and say hello 👋
Wherever you ride, stay safe, stay warm, and ride right.. #newberry #snowphotos
