We did groom 417 between Chatam and 418 by the Brownstone.
Super slow going and plenty of rocks. We saw several groups of sleds while out there who seemed to be very happy. It was pretty rough.

MUNISING AREA UPDATE via Leone's Polaris >> Linda’s Trail Report January 15, 2025 Munising, Mi. A beautiful, sunny day!! We rode mainly great trails all the way to Kitch-iti-Kipi spring. It is an experience to see the big trout and the water continually come into the spring. There were a few spots where the groomers rolled up a little bit of gravel while keeping the trails smooth. We had a great lunch at Big Spring Tavern. The pictures show how smooth the trails are. We have met people from Illinois, Wisconsin, Indiana, Minnesota and Ohio. All great people who love our sport!! #munising#snowphotos... See MoreSee Less
