Greetings! The grooming team will be snowcombing all the trails this morning, and the classic tracks on the Trappers cabin trail are in great shape. Most trails have skied in tracks, making conditions for classic and skating very good on most of the system. Enjoy this winter weekend in Pure Michigan, and join us for lots of fun events!
