TRAILS MAKING A RECOVERY!
Yesterdays new snow is making for some great grooming results. Overall Trails are in Very Good condition with a majority of our trail system groomed last night. Marking as “Good” because of another high traffic weekend, expect trails to get choppy as the day progresses. We still have hazardous water holes on Trail 418 so ride and cross with extreme caution (Map in images showing locations). Signs now mark both locations. Keep a close eye on conditions as you ride and stay right. Stay tuned for updates!
We would also like to thank Foggy’s Steakhouse in Christmas, MI for becoming our first “GOLD SPONSOR” with a generous donation. Support like theirs really helps us out with year-round, non grant funded operations.
