We’ve received 4-6” recently and slated to get 6-12” more depending on the weather person you believe. At this point we plan to groom tomorrow (Thursday) and access from there. Reminder we’ve had a lot of melt and rain. You may encounter some soft spots and lots of ice under the snow, adjust your riding to the conditions. The little bit of recon we’ve done in the past week trails before this snow had 0-4” depending where you are on the trail system and a lot of rough frozen ice due to the terrain. Stay tuned for more updates through the weekend. It’s going to take a good amount of snow to bring trails back into shape but our volunteers will do what they can. We need more than 12” of fluffy Lake effect to get trails in decent shape, but they will be rideable while it lasts.
Have a safe weekend. Ride right, ride safe and ride sober
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.

After Thanksgiving, a large portion of the U.S. will likely see below normal temperatures into early December. And of course, there's southern Florida. 🌞
