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:
Another slow weekend in Northern Michigan. Snow is a little thin on the ground, and some trails are too thin to groom. There were bright spots, though – our snowmobiling guests had a good weekend riding the lesser-used trails and riding off-trail in the Army land east of Grayling. Her …
It’s been a quiet week in Northern Michigan, in terms of weather, snowmobiling, and general activity. There was some traffic over last weekend and through MLK day, but not a large amount. That’s good for the trails, as the thin base would not withstand much heavy traffic on warm days. …

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:
This morning’s fog was very thick and widespread, with temperatures up into the 40s. That’s the fog of melting snow. Snow on the ground is now just about non-existent in most of the northern lower peninsula. So, we had a lot of snow early this year, but now we’re waiting …
