TRAVERSE CITY FOOD AND TRAILS UPDATE via Grand Traverse Area Snowmobile Club – 01/14
I was hoping to write a good trail report for this week but unfortunately we had 43° and sunshine yesterday. Forecast shows a small front moving through that may dump 2 to 3 inches in our area. Unfortunately what we need is a good heavy snow dump. I would consider the trails currently unrideable. Hang in there it is mid January and things could turn around quickly…
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. 🌞
FROM Grand Traverse Area Snowmobile Club >> The first meeting of the season is in the books. Thanks to Peegeo's for supplying pizza for the meeting! Peegeos is a long time supporter of GTASC. Let's return the favor and support them whenever possible.
It was announced at the meeting that GTASC will be receiving a new Dubie drag for this season. (Our current drags are 20+ years old). This will be a welcomed addition to the fleet and cut down on our current maintenance time and cost. There is still plenty of work that needs to be performed on the trails. We will be brushing this Sunday. If you can, come on out and give us a hand. We would appreciate it! #traversecity... See MoreSee Less
