With that being said the trails really took a beating. We only had one volunteer available to groom so unfortunately the railroad grade from Pellston to Mackinaw & the entire west side of our trail system will be in rough shape today. Your best spots to be today will be from the Harbor Groomer barn east to Alanson & Pellston. Take a ride to Brutus Camp Deli for breakfast & get 10% off for riding your seld there or swing into Beachs in Pellston or the Jerk-N-Depot in Alanson for some lunch!
Ride safe! #harborsprings #petoskey #snowphotos
