Munising Area Trail Report – 02/28
MUNISING AREA UPDATE via Alger County SORVA – 02/28 TRAIL REPORT – Sunday, 2-28-2021 GOOD TRAILS – GROOMING CHALLENGE! No new snow with Operators reporting fair grooming results for some good, yet early, late season riding conditions. Our Trail System in in Overall Good to Fair condition, staying fairly flat through the day with little chop developing and some icy corners. The warm sunny weather Saturday hit Trail 8 hard from Shingleton North for about 5 miles, it is in fair condition with bare patches, thin and very dirty snow. In the towns and along highways you will be finding dirty snow and bare spots. We continue to Help our Neighbors to the East, grooming East on Trail 8 from the Bear Trap intersection to the Trail 43 intersection. Again decent grooming results and on the return trip we covered bare spots best we could on our section of Trail 8 closer to Shingleton. Grooming was a challenge with temps just below freezing and very high humidity. Snow would process ok with light cutting but every now and then we would find a warmer, wetter section of trail that would want to ball up and plug the groomer. In the end results were pretty good but it almost feels like season end conditions a few weeks early. Snow forecast for tomorrow so lets hope it is enough to buy us another few weeks of riding. Keep snow dancing, get out and ENJOY the Trails, Ride Safe and Stay Tuned for updates! DETAILED REPORT HERE: https://www.algersorva.com/trailreport/2-28-2021/ Update 9:10 am – Trail 7 south of Doe Lake Road has also taken a hit similar to Trail 8 North of Shingleton, bare and icy corners with bare sections further south toward CR440. Be sure to patronize and thank your Trail Sponsors! <> MUNISING AREA UPDATE via TNT Trenary Northern Trails – 02/25 A good stiff wind on Wednesday stacked up a lot of drifts on the side of the trail, we were able to add several inches to our base in many spots. Overall things are looking pretty good for Thursday. <> REGIONAL TRAIL REPORTS Visit Alger County SORVA Facebook Page >>>> <> Visit Alger County SORVA Trail Report >>>> <> Visit TNT Trenary Northern Trails Facebook Page >>>> <> WEATHER UPDATE via US National Weather Service Marquette Michigan >> Quiet weather is expected today as highs climb into the 40s with increasing clouds through the day.
