We had about 1 inch of snow overnight with a possible inch more today.

Please be careful around corners there is ice under the snow in the curves.

Trail #9 north is in good condition. The base is 8-10 inches and groomers are reporting fair to good conditions. Be carful on the straight away between M-123 and 3 mile staging area, mogals form there quick depending on how many sleds go over it. There are some bare spots close to town. PLEASE BE AWARE THAT THERE IS LOGGING ON THE TRAIL ABOUT 8 MILES NORTH, SO WATCH FOR LOGGING TRUCKS

Trail #45 North is in good condition with a 8-10 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. The trail from Co. Rd. 500 to the Falls is in good shape.

Trail #9 south to Hemlock Ridge road (trail 2) has up to a 4 inch base and is in fair condition.

Trail #2 From the Naubinway split to Rexton is in fair condition with up to a 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 is in good condition with up to a 3 inch base.

Town trails are open and in good condition with a 2-4 inch base.

THE NEXT REGULAR MEMBERSHIP MEETING IS TUESDAY FEB. 16, 2010, AT THE GOOMER BARN LOCATED AT 9017 M-123, GUESTS ARE WELCOME.

*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.

Halfway Lake Trails Report – 2/15

Good Afternoon,

The Kingshot’s from Sault Ste. Marie,Canada just left after a week here snowmobiling. They said "the trails are great, much better than home". They are already looking at coming back next year.

It’s still snowing and more on it’s way. Our snow gauge is reading 16" up a couple of inches since yesterday.

All four quests checking out were very happy with the north trails.
