NEWBERRY AREA UPDATE via Trails End Lodging >> Good morning from a crisp, sunny Windy Corners!! ❄️☀️
It’s one of those perfect, peaceful starts — fresh groomed trails, clean air, and that quiet calm before the day picks up. You can almost hear the snow calling your name.
Trails are looking mint today… 👌
Are you squeezing in one last ride before the season wraps up? 🏁
Or have you already hung up the helmet and put away the sled for the year?
Drop a ❄️ if you’re riding today — let’s see who’s still out there making the most of it! #newberry #snowphotos

NEWBERRY AREA UPDATE via Trails End Lodging >> Groomer Ed from TASA Tahquamenon Area Snowmobile Association just rolled through Windy Corners for one final groom of the season… and WOW, what a ride it’s been. ❄️🔥
From early mornings to late nights, through blowing snow and brutal conditions, our groomers showed up every single time and delivered perfection. The trails this year? Absolutely unreal. 🙌
Let’s make some noise for the people who make it all happen 👇
👏 THANK YOU to every groomer who put in the hours, the grit, and the passion. You don’t always get the spotlight, but trust me—it does NOT go unnoticed.
If you rode the trails this season, drop a comment and show your appreciation:
👇👇👇
• Where was your favorite ride this year?
• Best trail conditions you experienced?
• Got a shoutout for a groomer? Tag them!
Let’s blow this up and give these legends the recognition they deserve. 🚨 #newberry #snowphotos
NEWBERRY AREA UPDATE via TASA Tahquamenon Area Snowmobile Association >> Chad and I just had a discussion, and it occurred to us, we've heard no fat ladies singing, so.....
Chad, you have to answer them. Im busy.
Just have the drag spread out low and lean, nothing blade worthy yet, hauling hiny (9ish) keeps it cycling through pretty good, leavin, ribbons.
Mostly just out here looking for disasters before that lady shows up! 😉 keep you posted. #newberry #snowphotos

That's a bummer. A quick pan might have been the ticket for us diehards who can't face the reality of the end of the riding season. Great work overall this season! Through all the issues thrown at the team this year, you guys kicked it!

NEWBERRY AREA UPDATE via TASA Tahquamenon Area Snowmobile Association >> 😭 Last Trip 😪
9:43PM Trail 9
Yuk! Second stop sign out, pretty ugly.
People were glad to see us from the git go, I get it!
Having to dig pretty deep with the blade in the corners followed by an aggressive drag, so heads up till we get back for any curbs I leave behind, still over 9ft wide a pass so you should be able to squeak through 😉
Othe than that, way cool sunset!
Not too much traffic, all pulled over 🥰
It's cleaning up very nice. I'll keep you posted.
11:18pm
Just finished Wolf Inn, North Store, Trails End Lodging, moved alot of snow down in the corners, lots, still digging deep.
Mostly ribbony, leveled off some intersections, enjoying my ride 😁
Just turned north, Pine Stump bound, keep you posted.
7:24am
Back down to the McMillan Leg.
After I left Windy Corners I never saw another sled, still haven't 😊 turning out pretty well, weird snow, thawed, froze, rinse, repeat it seems, kinda like artificial.
Anyway removed the ugly both sides, a few Corners could still use another lap, but they'll be fine. #newberry #snowphotos
