Harbor Springs Trail Report – 12/27
HARBOR SPRINGS AREA UPDATE via Harbor Springs Snowmobile Club – 12/27
TRAIL UPDATE
We had all three groomers out last night, everything has been groomed & is in good shape. We have a great snow base in most areas but only about 4” up towards Mackinaw.
It’s hard to say how things will hold up going into this warmer weather with highs in the 40’s Thursday & Friday with a chance of rain. So get out and ride while you can.

WEATHER UPDATE via US National Weather Service Gaylord Michigan >> Cold temperatures and continued brisk winds tonight will result in bitter cold wind chills of -10°F to -24°F across northern Michigan this morning. Be sure to take the proper precautions if spending time outdoors! Conditions improve this afternoon.
Good chances for snow showers will continue this week. After the cold today, temperatures rebound a bit Wednesday, but that will not last. Cold air starts to return on Thursday, and Friday looks to be perhaps the coldest day of the winter so far. #miweather #gaylord #cadillac #benzie #traversecity #petoskey

WEATHER UPDATE via US National Weather Service Gaylord Michigan >> Heavy snow and bitter cold wind chills are expected to begin tonight and continue through Monday. New snowfall of 4-8” with locally higher amounts are possible by Monday night/Tuesday morning. Wind gusts of 30-45+ mph are expected Monday morning and afternoon. Wind chills will drop well below zero through Tuesday as well. Combination of heavy snow, winds, and cold will create widespread hazardous travel conditions across northern Michigan with whiteouts possible at times, especially across open areas.

JORDAN VALLEY AREA UPDATE via Jordan Valley Trails Council >> Hats off to Mike, Rich and Pete for spending two cold days fixing a minor issue found on the track of the Pisten Bully! These guys have been on the recovery and fix of the blown track and this latest fix this year and we couldn’t do it without them! Hopefully our machine issues are behind us for the year!
Our Milwaukee Tool are a key part of program. From our impacts, grease guns and chainsaws in the cab of our units, these tools make our volunteers lives easier! Hopefully next year we’ll have a building in Alba to get out of the weather. Go check out the go fund me or visit the Antrim County Snowmobile Club and help us make this happen! gofund.me/a9c1cde53
Our groomers were out all weekend making up for the down machine. Thank you to our volunteers for adjusting their schedules! Trails have come back around since we’ve received some fresh snow to mix in with the crusty snow left from the meld down. Looks like we may receive another foot by next weekend which will help build back up the trail. This week will be frigid so we will adjust grooming as needed for snowfall and temps. Make sure you check out Groomer Tracker for all our grooming!
🚧Trail 4 near the Pinney Bridge there was a car in the trail today, please use caution as the trail maybe rutted from the vehicle or recovery effort🚧 #jordanvalley #gaylord #petoskey #snowphotos

HARBOR SPRINGS AREA UPDATE via Harbor Springs Snowmobile Club >> Thank you to everyone who came out for the 61st Annual Moose Jaw Safari! We had about 175 sleds leave the barn and nearly 300 by the time we reached the town hall. It turned into a beautiful day, with the sun even making an appearance. Our club members worked hard all week preparing the bean soup and getting everything ready, and we truly appreciate such an amazing turnout. #harborsprings #petoskey #snowphotos
WEATHER UPDATE via US National Weather Service Gaylord Michigan >> While snow is expected at times through much of the next week, the most impactful time frame across northern Michigan will likely be Monday into Tuesday. A combination of accumulating snow, gusty winds, and bitter cold wind chills are anticipated. Small flakes will likely lead to significant visibility reductions at times and cold temperatures will make road treatment difficult, leading to hazardous travel.
