Michigan Snowmobile Trail Report

WEATHER UPDATE via US National Weather Service Gaylord Michigan >> After the warm temperatures and melting snow during the day today (Thursday)...temperatures will drop off rapidly after sunset. This will lead to any wetness re-freezing on area roadways, which could lead to icy roadways and/or black ice formation tonight through Friday morning. Back roads, which became slushy today will refreeze as well, leading to complicated driving conditions. Finally, sidewalks and parking lots could also become hazardous to navigate. #miweather #gaylord #cadillac #benzie #traversecity #petoskeyAfter the warm temperatures and melting snow during the day today (Thursday)...temperatures will drop off rapidly after sunset.

WEATHER UPDATE via Meteorologist Brad Sugden >> There will be some melting before the weekend, but, if you are heading north the current snowpack is looking decent for many winter sport areas!

Too bad that color is 40-50 inches, not 50-75 lol and its 1-2 ft not 3-4 ft

This supposed to be current snow depth? I’m 7 miles south of pine stump and we’ve gotten well over 2 foot in the last 48 hours alone. There’s way more than 50” out there. Way more than 75 even.

Jordan Valley Area Trail Report – 01/11

JORDAN VALLEY AREA UPDATE via Jordan Valley Trails Council – 01/11

Some pictures from grooming this week

Overall trails are in fair shape, covered but thin. Our guys did some measurements and there is 1-4” on entire trail system. 131 is thin in spots the entire way. #trail4 toward EJ is the thinnest section of trail we have closer to town, but it’s rideable. Corners are bare in the bottom, random super thin patch in the heavy canopy areas. Much of the roughness is ultimately the underlying ground and frozen ground beneath the snow. Logging is still taking place in the North 10, be cautious as we’ve had reports of limbs and brush in the trails. Trail 766 is CLOSED but we are still working with the DNR and ACRC on an acceptable resolution to get it opened back up, soon ultimately we need more snow in there regardless.

Our volunteers have been out doing what they can with current conditions. Mid week grooming with continue to be groomed as snow and conditions warrant, every other day roughly and we’ll be out on the weekends. It’s forecasted for 6-10” early next week which will whiten things up but not add much to the trail. The new snow will work well as we don’t have much dirt and sand mixed into what’s on the trail thankfully. Stay tuned for further updates from our groomers through the week.

Shout out to all our volunteers for devotion grooming and hitting the trails on sleds to check current conditions as well as our friends down at Kalkaska County Sand and Snow – KCSAS as there are many phone calls with them on conditions.

Be sure to check out our snowmobile clubs and go support them. Antrim County Snowmobile Club has a sled raffle going on as well as their clubhouse is open on Saturdays. East Jordan Trailblazers have their Sunday Breakfast all season long as well as a club raffle. They are the core of our organization and we can’t thank them enough!
