Seney Trail Report – 01/15

SENEY AREA UPDATE via Seney Snowmobile Association – 01/15

We groomed all our trails yesterday. The lower part of 43 has a huge water hole and it’s deep. So be careful around it. The swamp on 431 is not frozen so don’t try to go through it. You’ll get stuck. Just go up trail 440 along M-77. The rest of the trails are in decent shape. Expect early season conditions. These cold temps this week should help get stuff frozen up a little better. Here are a few pics of yesterday’s grooming. First 2 pics are trail 43 last 2 are trail 431.

Michigan Snowmobile Trail Report

WEATHER UPDATE via Michigan Storm Chasers >> Here is our last call for ongoing system snow and lake effect snow from now through Sunday evening at 6 pm EST, December 20th & 21st, 2025.
Uncertainty exists primarily in our trace-1" category which extends from Frankfort and Alpena south to I-96/I-69. The clipper moving through today may produce a quick squall of rain & snow with minimal accumulation some time beyond 1 pm EST, but models haven't determined if this band will solidify or not. If it does, the chance for a rain/snow mix exists in areas highlighted in the pink dashed box. This rain/snow mix would only be today. Any snow on Sunday will be lake effect off of Lake Superior, hence why our highest totals of 4-8" are located east of Munising over to Paradise. Not too impactful of a system in terms of Michigander standards, but do take it slow if you encounter any snow squalls and/or visibly slick roads. #miweather #keweenaw #westernup #marquette #munising #seney #newberry #soo #straitsarea #gaylord #cadillac #benzie #traversecity #petoskeyHere is our last call for ongoing system snow and lake effect snow from now through Sunday evening at 6 pm EST, December 20th & 21st, 2025.

Sault Ste. Marie Trail Report – 01/15

SAULT STE. MARIE UPDATE via Sault Ste. Marie Snowmobile Association – 01/14

1/14- Delayed report (my fault) but here is what Turbo and Diane had to say about their run last night on 8 and 480 in Raco last night-

“Well good morning everyone, last night we went out grooming for the first time of the year and it was very challenging. It started out great everything was perfect except for the fact we couldn’t see s**t it was snowing so hard (not a bad thing). Breaking trail when you can’t see where to go is super hard. We ended up passing my turn around and ended up I am guessing 10 miles out of our way. At least our guys in Kinross will appreciate it lol. Then as we were coming up trail 480 the windshields wiper hose came off and was shooting antifreeze everywhere, shutting the wipers off didn’t stop it so had to shut the bully down to put the hose back on. So we left at 8:30 and didn’t get done until 2:10 so yes it was a long night. But I can honestly say the trails look awesome and it’s still coming down. That’s all for now. We will keep you updated. Mr.& Mrs. TURBO. If you like what we do, please go to the Groomer Tracker app and tip our group. Thank you!”

Thank you so much for the long night guys! Many definitely enjoyed the fruits of your labors today❄️❄️❄️

SAULT STE. MARIE AREA UPDATE via Sault Ste. Marie Snowmobile Association >> 12/21/25
Groomer Jay and I just finished the city trails. Aside from the car on trail 8 near Ashmun Bay, things look really good. We saw a little water on the trail to Kewadin as pictured, but that was honestly the worst part of the whole run. It was snowing hard for the last hour of our run.
I was pleasantly surprised to see how well things held up after the warm up last week.
We keep saying it, but we truly are very pleased with where things are this early seaon.
Let’s hope it continues! ❄️❄️❄️ #soo #snowphotos

Happy Winter Solstice!!
Beautiful shots from Brimley Bill this morning on his run of parts of 480 north of M28, the Raco powerline portion of trail 8, and the 889 loop!
Fresh snow over the solid base that the thaw last week helped to create = some awesome trails!
Thank you Bill! ❄️❄️❄️ #soo #snowphotos

SAULT STE. MARIE AREA UPDATE via Sault Ste. Marie Snowmobile Association >> 12/20/25
Good morning all!
Not any major changes here as of right now. We got maybe an inch of snow overnight in the Soo, with a bit in the forecast today and tomorrow.
Our Raco crew has been out on 8 from Brimley west, and the 889 loop is being done now, as they have a bit more snow in that area. I haven’t spoken with the groomer bosses in the Soo or Kinross yet, but I would imagine we’ll still be on hold in those areas until we get a bit more snow.
No doubt, we now have a very solid base over the majority of our trail system.
We’ll keep you posted! ❄️❄️❄️ #soo
