Please be careful around curves. The weather has cooled down and there is some ice around the curves. We had 4 – 5 inches of snow North overnight with more on the way. We are expecting snowfall of 3 – 6 inches today

Trail #9 south to Hemlock Ridge road (trail 2) has a 0 -4 inch base and is in good condition.

Trail #9 north is in good to very good condition. The base is 6-8 inches and riders are reporting very good conditions, please watch for ice and dirt, especially on hills and around curves.

Trail #45 North is in good shape with a 6-8 inch base, but, there are 2 logging areas on it. One north, and one south, of the Skyline Trail Head. It is plowed and can be rough at times. The trail from Co. Rd. 500 to the Falls had snow fall last night, and groomers are reporting the trail is in good shape.

Trail #2 to Rexton is in fair condition with a 1 -3 inch base.

Trail #473 has about 7 miles of plowed road from Rexton south to Epoufette due to logging in the area. Please watch for trucks and deer in the area. The base is marginal to 3 inches and in fair condition.

Trail #473 Rexton to Trout lake is in poor condition and will not be groomed until we have more snow.

Town trails are open and in good condition with a 0-3 inch base.

*Please remember our groomers are out daily to keep the trails in the best shape they can be for your riding pleasure. Please keep a safe distance from the groomer if possible.*

We have updated the Newberry Village trail map. There are just a couple of changes from the last map. Look for our upcoming article in the February issue of the Michigan Snowmobiler Magazine.

THINK MORE SNOW!!!

FROM THE CADILLAC WINTER PROMOTIONS
Saturday evening–January 30, 2010

Three groomers were out today and report the trails are in suprisingly good shape…most are about an 8 out of 10. The Boon groomer did Trail 37 south, while the 8920 groomed Trails 6, 376, 677, 687, 638 and the 7920 groomed Trail 35 east from Fairchild Creek to Hobart then Trail 5 North to McGuires then Trail 5 south to LeRoy. There is an ice base on all trails and light snow covering throughout the entire system. The absence of snirt is quite amazing. It is frozen solid and the trails are white. There are a few “chatter bumps” in some places the groomers can’t get out. Fortunately they aren’t deep and they aren’t throughout the entire system.

Snow gauge*: 3 inches
