Newberry Trail Report – Visit Newberry – 01/18
TASA – January 18, 2010 12:30p.m. Please be careful around curves. Due to the warmer weather we are having to deal with snow melting and some ice around the curves. All riders that are up are reporting good trails and are having lots of fun so come on up and join us!!! We have had some warmer weather this weekend and we are adjusting the times we go out grooming. Hopefully this warm spell does not last long and we get more snow soon. Trail #9 south to Hemlock Ridge road (trail 2) has a 1 -4 inch base and is in good condition. Trail #9 north is in good condition. The base is 6 – 8 inches and riders are reporting good conditions, please watch for ice. Trail #45 North is in good shape with a 4-6 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. We were able to groom all the way to the falls and the trail is in very 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 has a 1 -3 inch base and is in fair condition. The groomer did break through the ice and there are some wet spots. We need more snow in this area. Town trails are open and in great condition with a 2 – 4 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!!!
