Greetings sledders, We got about 3 inches Tuesday night…we were hoping for more but you take what you can get. Groomers are out and will continue to run as long as the snow will allow. There’s not much to work with which means there’s not much of a base established. I can’t grade the trails… Read More >

Greetings Sledders, Keith reported poor conditions starting on the 24th. Here’s a weather report for Tuesday into Wednesday. Winter Weather Advisory has been issued for all of Northern Michigan, Eastern U.P. to Central Lower Peninsula, from Tuesday evening until 1 pm Wednesday Afternoon.

Greetings Sledders, Quick update. The trails are a mix of snow and dirt. The snow that we laid down last Saturday was about all that we’ve had to work with. We picked up a little bit of fresh snow here and there but far from enough to allow us to keep panning. Unfortunately there isn’t… Read More >

Greetings Sledders, We picked up about 7″ of heavy wet stuff so far and it looks like we could get maybe another inch or two tonight. The groomers are panning and considering the temperature forecast the panning efforts could be a good start to a base. Keep in mind this is the first real snowfall that… Read More >

Greetings Sledders,         The trails can only endure so many body blows by the Sun and this last round has taken its toll.     Here is the latest poop by segment:     Trail #7 from Grayling to Frederic is poor.     Trail #679 fared better and is snow covered from Frederic to the intersection of #79.     Trail #79… Read More >

Greetings Sledders,         We got 4+ yesterday along with some hefty winds.         Everything was groomed yesterday and into last night and the trails are good to very good. Probably the best that I’ve seen in a number of years.     There was significant drifting in the clear cut and open areas which provides for an opportunity to… Read More >

Greetings Sledders,         I’d like to start by going way back to last Thursday. I groomed the Lovells trail and I had a frequent visitor here at Fay’s ride along for the 5 hour trip. A gentleman by the name of Maurice. He was here the week before and expressed a desire to see exactly what… Read More >
