Well, you've probably already seen the change in forecast for our snow...The accumulating snowstorm we were supposed to get decided to track south of us! According to forecasts the brunt of this storm will drop 8-12". As for our area we've seen a light dusting of snow and that's it. However, more light snow is predicted all day and the sky is cloudy now. The clouds brought us up to 20 degrees, which makes for comfortable riding. The railroad grade was groomed last night but we couldn't groom the woods. The seat in the tractor broke and is being repaired now. Thankfully both trails were groomed Sunday night so conditions are ok. We could use some fresh snow to revive what we've got and thicken up some corners and thin areas near crossings. There's more snirt than we'd like to see at the DNR trailhead and a few other places (Alanson Connector). But overall we have the snow and base for riding. There are many areas of the trail that are smooth, white and in great shape-but we know you've come to expect that. Keep expectations in check and head out for a good day riding. Cross your fingers for a few inches of snow to blow our way...Stop in and see us at Burt Lake Marina--we've got 2010 Ski-Doo sleds at competitive prices and Can-Am ATV's too.
