» Newberry Trail Report – Halfway Lake Resort – 01/28Good afternoon,
Burrrrr is cold it’s only 9 degrees, and it is snowing. The snow on the snow gauge outside my window went from 16" down to 8" in our melt down. Last nights snow has brought it back up to almost 12". We did keep our base on the trails from here north. The corners took a little wear, but with this new snow they should be in great shape for the weekend.
Hope you will come and join us.

We are grooming, although the snow is in granular icy form. We ended up with about an inch of new snow overnight with more on the way.
Trail #9 south to Hemlock Ridge road (trail 2) has a 0 -4 inch base and is in fair condition.
Trail #9 north is in fair condition. The base is 4 – 6 inches and riders are reporting Fair conditions, please watch for ice and dirt, especially on hills and around curves. There have been reports of some thin spots due to the warm weather.
Trail #45 North is in fair 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. There is very little snow on trail from 500 to the falls.
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 is in poor condition and willnot be groomed until we have more snow.
Town trails are open and in poor condition with a 0-2 inch base. The ally is down to dirt.
*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!!!
