DOING WHAT WE CAN WITH HELP!
About an inch of new snowfall with the trail system in overall fair to good condition, poor in some sections. Limited Grooming was accomplished in the last 24 hours. Trenary Northern Trails will continue helping on the west end and sharing use of their Deere with our operator during the day today. Schoolcraft Motorized Trail Association will be helping from the southeast end. We will be doing limited grooming with our club owned machine as we move it back to the Munising Trail 419 area. The Big Deere is being picked up this morning and most likely will be out for a few weeks. The Trail Programs Spare Machine is scheduled to return along with parts for our Bully. Hopefully we can get back to a normal grooming schedule soon. We will keep everyone updated on equipment status as things develop. Be sure to Thank our neighboring clubs for helping us keep your trails rideable. Get out and ride safe, stay right and enjoy the great riding conditions! Keep doing the Cold Weather Snow Dancing – scratch that – Groomer Repair Dancing and Stay Tuned for updates!
