Traverse City Trail Report – Blue Sky Snowmobile Rentals – 02/20


Blue Sky Rentals – February 19, 2012
Early morning guided tour with the Smith family from Clarkston. They are in town doing some winter camping at the state park.

Trails held up pretty well over the weekend. I took a couple out on a guided tour yesterday and we put on a little over 65 miles. Trail 5 and 55 were pretty good, the power lines in and out of the Staging area at Peegeo’s were a bit beat up as well as the area around Ranch Rudolph, but, for the most part, we had a good run. Ran in to a bunch of sledders that were happy to just be riding. This has not been the best winter for those of us farming snow, GOOD news though, snow in the forecast all week. Maybe we will get an extended late season this year.

We still have plenty of 1 and 2 person 2010 and 11 SkiDoo 600 liquid cooled machines available for this weekend. Come on up and have some fun!

Grayling Trail Report – Fay’s Motel – 02/20

Greetings Sledders,

Most everyone that we talked to that rode from here said they had better than expected rides. This was a result of the surprise 3" that we received early Saturday morning which grabbed the trails from the clutches of Friday’s partial nuclear meltdown. Pretty dismal year when we have to rely on 3" to save the day.

Speaking of dismal we’ve groomed a grand total of ten days this season and racked up a whopping 1200 miles. WOW, never seen anything like it in the 13 years that I’ve occupied a seat behind the wheel.

Took a road trip this morning and the trails are still white at the crossings although that might change given the sunny 45 degree day that we are having. We aren’t sure what to expect weather wise for the remainder of the week due to conflicting forecasts.

So I’m going with a cautionary poor to fair rating that could easily change as the weather mystery unfolds.

I’m thinking about ditching the trail report and starting a review of newly released DVD’s, God knows we’ve seen all of them worth watching. Haven’t decided on a name just yet but I might go with the NRD’s Review. Gotta go I’m off to Family Video to renew our half off program.

Next report Thursday or sooner if needed.

Ride Often and Please Be Safe,
Keith, Sandy and The Girls

At Fay’s Motel enjoy direct access to the Grayling Area snowmobile trails.
