Perfectly groomed from south of town once you pick up Soo and Chippewa grooming clubs at Curly Lewis- Brimley- Strongs- Hulbert. Flat and fast. A little thin on the rail grade heading into Strongs but passable. Snow falling all day so that will improve. <> <> <> Visit Paradise Area Night Riders on Facebook >>>> <> SENEY AREA UPDATE via Mater's Stop -N- Go Gas Station >> Ryan’s drone today.

Such a beautiful peaceful start to the morning!
Happy Wednesday- stay safe and warm! #newberry #snowphotos
26 degrees this morning and snowing......still. It hasn`t quit since my last report a few days ago! We now have a solid 3 feet on the ground and we are under a winter storm warning till tomorrow night....oh boy.....I`m hoping the wind don`t pick up like they are saying!
We have had the groomers out. Groomer Mike C. took a machine with a drag and ran up to Chic`s corner to clear trees, he ran the North and South loops outa town also. He was surprised at how many trees were down and quite a bit of water under the snow too. I took just a machine and ran into town and set the town trail.
We had a drivers mtg. last night and came up with a plan, so here it is.....With this storm coming we are gonna stay outa the woods till Friday then we will take a machine out trail #8 to Pine Stump to clear trees and pack it in. We will also take a machine around the Point trails #452 & #453 and do the same. Sunday we will take 2 machines and head south on trail #8. We are gonna skip the swamp just south of town and start at the river mouth. The reason for skipping the swamp is it looks like we have a slight warm up coming for next week and with the ground not froze yet we would do more damage than good, same for trail #45 to the Falls, we will get on these trails as soon as the weather lets us.
If you decide to come UP for the weekend I say GO FOR IT!!!! Tons of powder to play in, just a couple of sections not quite ready. Keep a sharp eye for trees down and some water under the snow.
OK, ya`ll got the skinny for the next few days!
LET `ER SNOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! please don`t warm up too much

Trails can be ridden. Water holes are still in process of freezing in.
Our base is time and materials. We have plenty of materials but need time to get a perfect base. Ride smart....ride safe. #grandmarais #newberry
It'll be very windy as well, especially later Wednesday into Thursday. We could have gusts over 40mph over land and 50mph over the lakes and lakeshore areas. This is will cause extremely difficult travel yet again.
We'll have light snow Wednesday morning for the commute with heavy snow in the existing lake effect heavy prone areas. The Wednesday evening commute looks like garbage since we'll have strong winds and heavy snow coming down for ALL areas of Michigan. Then, we'll switch back over to lake effect areas by Thursday am. #miweather #keweenaw #westernup #marquette #munising #seney #newberry #soo #straitsarea #gaylord #cadillac #traversecity #petoskeyLake effect + clipper system + lake effect = a hard forecast!
