MUNISING AREA UPDATE via TNT Trenary Northern Trails – 2/25
A good run last night from Trevor. New snow is producing good results. It will be a high traffic volume weekend so the trail will get rougher throughout the afternoon. The groomer is smoothing out the track at the Trenary Outhouse Classic in downtown Trenary this morning so the pushers will have a really fast and safe event! Ride right and ride safe!
FROM Meteorologist Brad Sugden >> I need to post this image again because WOW. I can't recall the last time nearly all of the United States was forecast to be below average. Before anyone gets on the "SEE CLIMATE CHANGE IS FAKE" train... one of these below average maps DOES NOT negate the other 500 above average ones. Trends, folks. Trends. Nothing is a straight line. The warming temperature trend line is full of peaks and valleys with an overall increasing trend. 🙂 #miweather #keweenaw#westernup #marquette #munising #seney #newberry #soo #straitsarea#petoskey#gaylord#cadillac#traversecityI need to post this image again because WOW.

Are trail gates closed on Trail 5 from Champion up to Big Bay and other trails around there or can we still sneak out? With this much snow, we can probably can’t see the gates! Lol.
WEATHER UPDATE via US National Weather Service Marquette Michigan >> Winter Storm and Blizzard Warnings have been issued! Blizzard warnings are in effect for Baraga and Marquette Counties. Heavy wet snow will arrive later tonight into Thursday morning as a low pressure system lifts into the Great Lakes. Strong northerly winds are expected and blowing snow is likely. Widespread 8-12 inches are forecast; higher amounts in excess of 2 feet are forecast across the higher terrain of Marquette and Baraga Counties into Thursday morning. Note: A sharp gradient in snow totals is expected just inland from the Great Lake-especially along the Lake Superior shoreline in Baraga and Marquette Counties. Wet snow combined with strong northerly winds may cause sporadic power outages. A prolonged mix of rain and snow will enable lower snow totals over the eastern sections of the U.P. #miweather #keweenaw#westernup #marquette #munising #seney #newberry #soo #straitsarea...

MUNISING AREA UPDATE via TNT Trenary Northern Trails – 2/24
Full run on our trail last night with the repaired groomer and new snow! It will take a few grooms to get back to good conditions as this dry snow doesn’t make a great trail right away. Expect the trail to get rougher through the day as traffic volumes will be high this weekend. We look to be scheduled out through the weekend and will be helping the county road commission set up the track for the outhouse classic on Saturday morning. Ride right and ride safe.
