Trail REPORT……
all trails are now groomed thru wetland areas and
ALL trails are in a good–average range….some brown showing on some corners..
Heavy trail usage is blowing out corners and hills….limiting trails to a good range..
Zero temps are hard to pack…our warm up today should help packing trails….

ALL groomers will be out for next 3 days
NO GROOMing —- NEW years eve and New Years Day—-… will be a day of rest for groomers and due to heavy trail traffic……

***** The BAD…

Please stay on Snow trail … ….half of road is plowed for DNR access only…STAy on Snow TRAIl….

There are 6 State HIghway..road crossings in our trail system
PLEASE …DO NOT power (rooster tail) snow onto road surfaces when crossing…..it is a traffic hazard to motor vehicle traffic …we have been getting complaints….

Thanks …have fun….Glad you Made it to PARADISE…!!!!!

TRy night riding …its pretty,,,its fun… low traffic..

GOOD MORNING NORTHERN MICHIGAN…. All trails were groomed last night. Remember its not a super highway, its a trail through the environment with all styles and types of riders whipping it up. Warmer temps through the evening may have loosened up the base a bit and yes bumps may have occurred. Slow down and check out the sunshine sparkles, the snow blobs, the rivers, creeks and the wildlife that lives along them. ENJOY the RIDE!

Hello! I hope your Christmas was great! Snow snow snow! Yeehah! We’ve gotten 6-10′ since Christmas Eve alone! Yay! Snowbirds say the snow total for the year so far is 80 inches! Groomers will be out today and early tomorrow grooming the entire trail system. There is a pretty 8′ base in most locations. Watch out for logging operations in the Norconk Swamp area on trail #386 and on Trail #3 North of US-31 watch for ruts, mud and large slow moving vehicles. It’s our time baby! Get out and ride! Remember to watch out for the groomers and give them a thumbs up as you pass by! Be safe, have fun! Keep in touch! I love your emails! THANKS SO MUCH for the email and pic Greg M! LOVE IT! SEEYA on the trails! Carol
