Paradise Area Trail Report – 12/11
December 11, 2022
Yea….yea…..I`m still here! I finally decided to get off my slacker couch and give ya`ll an update……so here we go!!!!
We have just a few inches of snow on the ground and the temps have been on the cool side, but just not cold enough yet. The ground isn`t close to being froze yet, which is the usual for this time of year. We really need the ground to freeze and get a few more inches of snow on the ground before we even think about getting the groomers out. Looking at the extended forecast it looks like we might get some more snow next week.
Speaking of the grooming machines, I have important info for ya`s. If ya`ll remember, we had some problems last season with a couple of tires breaking off. It shut down the machine for a couple of weeks while we were waiting on parts, which in turn hurt the trail conditions as we had only 2 machines runnin and we had to almost run them around the clock to try and keep up! Well……we have been VERY busy the last couple of weeks to rectify this problem! We tore the chassis completely down on them and replaced ALL the bearings and spindles so all the running gear is brand new!!!! That should fix it!!!! We also had the factory mechanics come out and change and flush ALL hydralic fluids!! SOOOO……the machines are ready to ROCK, just need Mother Nature to cooperate now.
I`ll be on here more often now giving my famous NO BS trail reports as soon as Mother Nature lets me.
Keep checking back LET `ER SNOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

NEWBERRY AREA UPDATE via TASA Tahquamenon Area Snowmobile Association >> Sup with that? Not waiting on a soul tonight ? 🤔 4⁰
7:59PM Those of you dedicated 🤪😜
to riding tonight, our talented with a blade (and many other things 😁) leader Chad came out earlier with the Pisten Bully to do some magic to all the corners between Newberry and Pine Stump making my life the easiest its been since we panned the second time in December 🥰😍😍😍😍
BUT! Im still going to dig deep in some areas leaving an edge that'll be blended in on the way back, so heads up about that. Guess that it for now, gotta go, but I'll bet back.
2:27AM Posted a rant, a compliment, some pics..... no idea where it went.. happens time to time, anyway, WOW you're going to be GEEKED if you get out here tomorrow, 🥰😍😍 #newberry #snowphotos

GRAND MARAIS AREA UPDATE via Grand Marais Sno-Trails Assoc. >> Holy Guacamole did we get a dump of snow last night!!! At least a foot on top of the 7-8 inches we got yesterday. It's going to take a bit to get all the new white gold groomed into submission. #grandmarais #newberry
