Boyne Area Trail Report – Mountainside Inn – 01/08
Petoskey Snowmobile Club – 01/07 Trails are back in good shape thanks to a bunch of lake-effect snow over the last couple days. Both groomers were out last night and groomed the entire trail system, including the new trail into Petoskey. Reports are that the trail base has quickly built back up to 8 inches or more so you will have some great riding now. The new trail into Petoskey IS OPEN! It goes from our clubhouse trailhead (on the corner of Cedar Valley Rd. and Evergreen Trail) to the Odawa Casino just south of Petoskey. The trail has a few road crossings, including having to cross US-131 at Lears Rd. PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE use extreme caution when crossing any road. STAY ON THE TRAIL and obey traffic signals. Safety first. http://www.petoskeysnowmobileclub.org Mancelona Trail Report The lake effect snow machine hit us good. John down in Mancelona said he got about 14 inches overnight and it snowed all day after that. Up in Charlevoix there has been 8 inches to a foot of new snow in the last 24 hours. Rememmber that this is lake effect and does not build base very well but at least we are getting something. All 3 groomers where out at sometime today. The trail to Charlevoix was groomed today for the first time this year. that was yesterday, now today the groomers will still be running but lake effect did not build much base. Just got a text from the groomer driver that is on the trail now and he said there is a base of about 0 – 1-1/2 " ontop of ice and that considering the snow was lake effect the trails are in pretty good shape. He groomed untill 2:30 this mornning and is back out now.
