Munising Area Trail Report – 04/01
TRAIL REPORT April 1, 2022 ORV Season Open – Conditions Favor Sledding! Trail Reports will be in an ORV format which now include our maintaining of Trail “C” (8, 7, 418, 417) from Shingleton all the way to Marquette. The ORV Season is officially open but there is still plenty of snow to ride your sleds. We had another few inches of fresh wet snow yesterday as we put away the groomers. For sledding Main Trail conditions are fair to good with a few water holes. Our final groom was panning from Wetmore back to our groomer barn in Shingleton yesterday. There is very dirty, gravely snow along roadways near towns. A majority of our Trail System is on State and Federal Land and still rideable for sleds, just note that Trails will begin to be shared with ORV’s. As far as ORV riding we still have lots of snow with large soft spots, slush and water holes in areas. For us it is time to get tires on the club owned Deere and prepare for upcoming brushing and grading. Ride to the Right and Stay Tuned for updates!

LAST DAY OF OFFICIAL SEASON!
Plenty of snow to ride the main trails with a few more inches of fresh wet snow overnight after a day of rain and sleet. As of right now we are getting a rain/snow mix with conditions not allowing grooming, too wet and snow will not process. Main Trail conditions are fair to good with a few water holes. Last groom was this past Sunday grooming Trail 8 from 7 miles North of Shingleton West to Trail 7 North up to Trail 418. There is very dirty, gravely snow along roadways near towns. Trail 7 South toward Buckhorn has bare section in the open areas. We will be watching temperatures and snow conditions closely to see if we can get a groom in tonight. A majority of our Trail System is on State and Federal Land and still rideable after today, March 31, just note that Trails will begin to be shared with ORV’s. Ride to the Right, watch for groomers and Stay Tuned for updates!
