Snowmobiling Updates
We frequently find ourselves in March talking about how good the snowmobiling or skiing conditions are, and this March is starting off the same. We’ve gotten several inches of snow today, and 6″ or so last week, so there is plenty of fresh white snow out there. Snowmobile trails may …
Fresh snow this week, a beautiful day in the woods. A little brown on the trails around Starvation Lake this morning, with plenty of snowmobiles here Related Images:
3-8″ of new snow seems to be the range we see. As usual, less south and east and more north and west. This weeks snowfall seems heaviest between Mancelona and Gaylord, NW of Grayling. Groomers will be running again, as required. Related Images:

The new year brings us a welcome turn back to normal winter conditions. Snow is falling — maybe 4 inches over the past day or two and another 5 or so in the forecast for the next 24 hours. Snowmobiling — On Saturday I saw many snowmobiles out, despite the …
We got a little snow today, and it’s been cold for the past two days. Snow is in the forecast for the next week, but we’ll need it to build a usable base back on the snowmobile and ski trails. Related Images:
