St. Ignace Trail Report – 03/21

So I hope you are all working on the family to get some time to go sledding on Easter, cause it is gonna happen! Trails are in fantastic shape right now, and the base is crazy deep for the 3rd week of March. Mother Nature must have just delayed winter for a month, cause it is still here and going strong. Light flurries today, will give way to sun tomorrow and a perfect sledding weekend. We received between 6-10″ of snow across the trail system since last weekend, and I don’t need to detail different trail condition locations today as they are all in really good shape. Lots of base, lots of cover, lots of fun.
Forecast for the coming week is for just above temps, which will settle the snow a little, but it won’t hurt that base as all.

Today: Snow showers likely, mainly before 11am. Cloudy, with a high near 27. Northwest wind 10 to 15 mph. Chance of precipitation is 60%. Total daytime snow accumulation of less than a half inch possible.

Tonight: A 40 percent chance of snow showers before 2am. Cloudy, with a low around 19. Northwest wind 10 to 15 mph.

Friday: Cloudy, with a high near 31. Northwest wind around 10 mph.

Friday Night: Mostly cloudy, with a low around 22. Northwest wind 5 to 10 mph.

Saturday: Partly sunny, with a high near 34. North wind around 5 mph.

Saturday Night: Partly cloudy, with a low around 20.

Sunday: Mostly sunny, with a high near 34.

Sunday Night: Mostly cloudy, with a low around 24.

Base: 18 inches

Snowfall Past 24 hours: 2 inches

Last Grooming: Daily – usually @ night

Current Trail Conditions: Excellent

St. Ignace Trail Report – 03/19

2/3 of the way through March, and the groomers are running strong every day reporting some of the best trail conditions we have had this year. Mother Nature is making up for the marginal December, and giving us super March riding. If you are thinking about putting that sled away, you better think again, we have a COUPLE WEEKS of good riding yet for sure. The trail bas has done nothing but improve over the last week, and the groomers are packing down another 6’+ of fresh system snow today. Not sure if we will see any of that predicted 12′ of lake effect, but even without it, you will find some of the best-flattest-widest trails in the whole state in our area. It will probably be a long cold wet spring, may as well burn some of that summer vacation time on the sled. Make your reservations and head this way, great week-day and week-end riding awaits you.

The following pics were sent in by the groomer less then 1 hour ago. Yes, trails are rated 10 out-of 10. (sure, now try to explain to the boss why you are day dreaming and getting nothing done today!)

Base: 18 inches

Snowfall Past 24 hours: 5 inches

Last Grooming: Daily – usually @ night

Current Trail Conditions: Excellent
