TRAIL REPORT

2/17/2026

Well let's go see what we can do with this sloppy mess till it gets below freezing which is just now,, AND STAYS THAT WAY FOR MORE THAN TWO HOURS THIS TIME, COOL BEANS?

Anyway, we're not out here in an attempt to create ribbons, we're here to fix holes and make as flat as possible before it all sets up, because when it does, this stuff will become cement. I should add then, Cement IS OUR GOAL, it has a tendency to stay put, anything less, temps near 30, just thrown off the trail right after we pass and there goes 14+ man hours and 80-90 gallons Diesel in very short order, we're not hooked up with USAID or ActBlue so we're kinda fussy about where we spend our limited funds. 

10.3 miles to first stop sign today.

Its heavy hard pushing stuff, it is laying flat, is rolling on blade, am able to roll the high side of curves, just cant dig too deep yet.

Rumors is I'll have fresh snow to blend in on the way back, may have an opportunity to make you all proud yet, but I have a hunch there's worst is yet to come 

Quite busy out here! I'll keep you posted.

11:02pm

Windy Corners done, not pretty at all, but flat as a sponge, looks like one too! 2" new snow, you wont see anything but but pretty trail at least to here, I hear its going to get progressively worse as I go, not much else to do but deal with it, takes nothing but time and fuel.

Keep you posted, Pine Stump bound!

10:06am Wednesday.

Well that nothing but Sucked HUGE people!! Tucker drag and I worked evey messed up foot to Holland Lake and back, we're down to scraping the base made couple weeks back, slush gone sub zero in 24 hours, after our last warm up, its Hard!

It's going to be an enjoyable ride now.

Need to be careful in all the corners, this snow is again like mostly crushed up suger cubes, doesn't flow or fill very well leaving a flat but porous surface to deal with, Im at 9 & 498 pointed at McMillan, snowing very well now, started at 6 at Pine Stump, then 7 it turned to rain, 9:30 back.

Warm enough I've cut alot of brush too. We get any measurable snow during the day, it will bring this trail back to where we had it in pretty short order.

11:41

Been pretty much white out since I headed to McMillan! INCREDIBLE!

Almost home, pushingv 4" of NEW SNOW last couple three miles!:

Much easier to hide things now 

All of 9 is now going to be incredible as well, go pack the new down for us so we can shave it smooth tonight! 

2/9/2026

Trail 9 north off M123, same story, different day 

Ill keep you posted.

9:10PM

Man, kinda scared to say this out loud but Tucker, Drag, Snow and I are, like one with one another tonight, we can't not leave a ribbin! (So far)

Anyway, 10.5 to Second stop sign, not workin it as hard as Saturday night, not having to dig as deep to shave it under all the damage and leave it flat, warmer snow is flowing very well.

No pics yet, your just going to have to trust me, that's all, keep you posted.

11:19pm

In and outta Windy Corners, almost perfect, last pic right now is where I

nose dived it ( ya I told ya, gotta be honest with all of it right? ) coming in across the drifted plains section after the woods, incidentally where I decided no more blade in the drifted plains sections, some situations require pulling things through rather than pushing them here, as well in life I'm finding.

Anyway, we're pointed north, its 11:26:on a week night, dead zone with these things for a bit, I'll be back sooner or later, not cold a bit and the cruise is working perfectly, I'm going to use it awhile now 

5:03AM

Was hoping, gunning to get to the end of the run before the 2"- 4" of new snow showed, and did  just like seeing what needs to happen before it gets burried.

The leg north to Holland Lake, never better, 2 laps around the Pine Stump block, Smooooth, (sitting in that intersection now pointed south) have a pretty much non stop gray band to follow home. Snowing very well now, probably 2" here, blend it all in, haul hiny to the Wolf Inn intersection before you all get up! 

Gotta go,, I'll be back.

8:45am

Pointed down the McMillan barrel.

Not a soul has been on anything from here to Holland Lake, had it all myself both ways,  its back to just pretty incredible, smoooth, wide, lonely 

Snow is no longer crispy, we're back to heavy sand kinda stuff, it's going to get thrown all over, ridden like the last couple weekends, the trail will go fast, just sayin. 30⁰ ish hood..

Anyway, it just looks like its ready to dump on us, thick.

10:43 am

Back to M123, BOTH lanes of 9 are now open for Business coming and going to Newberry, wide and flat, same with almost all the corners, plenty of room to stay away from each other, thats the plan.

Think hard how to get out here, you gotta see this! 

1/20/2026

Sup with that? Not waiting on a soul tonight ?  4⁰

7:59PM Those of you dedicated 

to riding tonight, our talented with a blade (and many other things ) leader Chad came out earlier with the Pisten Bully to do some magic to all the corners between Newberry and Pine Stump making my life the easiest its been since we panned the second time in December 

BUT! Im still going to dig deep in some areas leaving an edge that'll be blended in on the way back, so heads up about that. Guess that it for now, gotta go, but I'll be back.

2:27AM Posted a rant, a compliment, some pics..... no idea where it went.. happens time to time, anyway, WOW you're going to be GEEKED if you get out here tomorrow, 

7:29AM Back to Windy Corners intersection (422 & 415) 

We owe my leader Chad a HUGE THANK YOU!! WAIT TILL YOU SEE THOSE CORNERS!!

I had a smile the entire way up to Holland Lake, busted open both sides where it crosses 407 twice, the 407 stretch, Pristine, sweet, perfect! Chad busted open all the other crossings, I know I keep bragging about 9, but tonight? Totally Different Story!

It's hands down the best of my bests thanks to Chad I was able to fine tune some fine work 

Wait till, you see those corners

Allowed me to practice on where the ever elusive ribbons come and go, blade flowed smoothly around our new corners,, it was cool.

Anyway, headin 498 to McMillan leg, and then again in a 12-13 hr span, back down 9 to Newberry, gotta admit, TASA gave you all allota care today.  (so far, its just beginning again!)

8:48AM Just turned right to Newberry from McMillan leg ( Sweeet per usual) looking at my track up, looks like maybe 3 sleds since I came up, see whatvwe can do.

Parked her 10:30, 498 backup back to Newberry, all of it, nicest in eons, pleased, very pleased we could put the time in to make a clean flat wide base, should have plenty of room to stay away from each other, remember to make good decisions out there, family's including your own depend on it

1/2/2026

Left at 7pm, 11:13 Just finished Wolf Inn North Store, nosed dived her coming up the hill in the parking lot where all the cameras are! No worries, figured out last Wednesday and CycloneBomb night how to fix those, 2 & 3 of em!, sucks bad on a corner 

At this point I can only tell you it looks ALOT better AFTER I've been there, BUT, hard parts are ahead, keep you posted.

11:36 Looks like we just missed Seney, snowing hard off and on.

2am, at the Bridge, old timers call it "the tubes".

Time to dig out the drag, and yes, its a drag, but it has to be done, gets like your pulling six smokey links sideways!

3:40am, turned around Holland Lake, haul hiny home! 

7:20am

All right, back to Wolf Inn North Store corner, never saw a sled from here up, and back down to Seney, picked up 2 tracks there. It's back to pretty incredible, dug as deep as tractor could, snow moves nice but Isn't going to stay put long, onward McMillan leg!

8:07am McMillan done, perfect as usual.

Just want to say use caution coming into the hairpin corners North of the Windy Corners intersection and the usual drifted areas much better but still.

Pine Stump to Holland Lake, pretty proud of how far that's come, it's all nice now.

Im headed into Newberry, if you're headed out, I'll see you soon! 

December 12, 2025
Trail 9 is open and looking good
Trail 45 is open to County Road 500, but not open to the falls yet there is no-water holes open this season so far

3/24/2025

Well guess what,,,,,,

Coming out of Newberry looks like January.

The stretch outta Newberry?

Incredible! didn't look like that Saturday night at all!

Smooooth, all snow, just squished it flat no need for cutting.

See what happens as we go, heading to Windy Corners.

I know there's more than enough snow here on up, maybe start pondering an extended season? two 40⁰ days isn't going to hurt what we've got going here 

Dumped a bunch of pics earlier, none stuck, just did it again two at a time, they stuck.

In and outta North Store Wolf in, beautiful.

North we go!

It's coming down out here, drifting, a dream to groom! 

11:30 Seriously, you won't believe me until you see it tomorrow, even my nemesis hairpin corners, aced em!

Getting back in the groove of the Piston Bully after the Tucker, two WAY different animals, Piston Bully? You better be ready to argue with it just about every second or you're going to end up in the pucker brush lickedy split! Tucker? pretty much point it, push the cruise grab your coffee, enjoy the ride.

We're getting along great tonight with all the news snow on a pretty much flat trail to begin with, trail 9 has no idea what the date is on our calendar.

2:20 Holland Lake Park and Ride.

Grand Marais has come and gone.

Had to work a little harder North of Sceny turn, but no where even close to last Saturdays trip up, hands down not fun, trip back much better.

Probably 7" new to blend in, this is fun!

8:10 Pics are messing up.

Back to Siver Creek Trail head.

It's all been done twice including the McMillan leg now, corners flat, it's as nice as it's been al winter, just lonely.

3/17/2025

Pine Stump had a vintage sled show this past weekend over 100 sleds!

We had Miss Piston Bully up there for show and tell.

Just bringing her home today, before the predicted weather moves in, the bridge groomed nice, the rest not so much.

We have a glaze of suger snow and 3" or so sheet of ice base underneath, blade won't penatrate!

Let the drag shave off the tops what it could and brought here home. 

Still a lot of riding left up there, see what this weather does.

3/7/2025
Groomers are heading out tonight to groom 45 to the falls, 9 to Holland Lake and 9 south to Rexton. Be safe and ride right.

3/3/2025
We will not be out grooming until the weather gets colder looking like tomorrow night thanks for understanding

2/28/2025

Feel a little more alone in this weather 

Im and out of Windy Corner, they will be glad we came,.

All in all once you're out of Newberry the trail continues to improve as I go, a ribben is pretty evasive with this snow texture but it's laying out flat pretty nicely .

All right, so I opened my big mouth, turned to go north head to Pine Stump, this trail is Trash! It's Rib Bone Non Stop!

Craters in corners and a base plug full of holes! 2" of new snow isn't really helping, making it much better but far from proud.

4:44 THAT WAS A CHORE!

Snow is just not cooperating at all.

Holland Lake, and Grand Marais has been through.

Head it back see what I can do.

8:28 It's nice, turned out pretty nice.

Back to 415, about 3" last night, still great riding out here!

2/26/2025
So we have had a couple problems with the groomers and we got the parts last night and put them back together we also got a 400 piston bully to try out for a while so if it’s cold enough tonight we will be out if not it looks like Thursday for sure with all 3 groomers thanks

2/18/2025

When's the last time you remember a pile like that at the entrance of 9 from Newberry?

Just got us outta Newberry and those of you that rode it today know there was nothing to complain out there 

All the way to the trail head at 446, cruise control, very little damage and drag fixed it easily, no blade!!

Good for us because it means base is getting harder, and I don't have to disturb it 

Kinda busy but everyones been cool.

I'm tellin ya, this is too easy tonight !

And you all know I get to bust through snow drifts like these right?!! 

Some people just ain't right, know what I'm sayin?

Been snowing like this more on than off since I left, at least 3" new I'm playing with.

10:30 Had to get out and scrape the blades, we were no longer agreeing with each other.

Good thing about coming into Wolf Inn North Store at this time is I have the whole trail to myself.

So that's done, pretty sure I'll score an A on that work 

So if you did ride up to Windy Corners, that was quite the Tundra Siberia thing going on at the clearing going over the hill huh? Huge drifting and deep! Was a blast to squish!

Now the long leg, and those pesky S curves, if you hear nothing more about them tonight, it's cause I've messed them up badly 

So pray for a comment in awhile 

I made a comment, it's no longer there, may show up later out here in your on your own ville.

S curves went very nicely, shaved the tops while dragging everything I could with me to keep them as flat as possible.

I'm at Pine Stumps trail 2:50AM, I've had 5" of fresh snow to squish all the way up here giving me so much snow is hard to Not leave a black band behind me!

Trails are pristine, if you came or went from Pine Stump to Newberry yesterday now, you had an awesome ride, I had about no work on the way up, cruise control and chill 

GRAND MARAIS has been here, very recently, two passes 4:12

Mad dash south back to Windy Corners before.....

Whew! 7:44 Made it outta there before rush hour !

Back to 9 & 498 turn to Newberry 

Absolutely beautiful all the way up to Holland Lake and pleased with the S curves!

Trails are changing little, but all this snow is just adding to the beauty of it all more and more 

This new snow from last night is now about 3" on top of our hard base, it's going to move today, and if we get busy probably get beat up quickly.

But if you're out this morning, you'll be writing home tonight about today's ride!

Have to attend to the McMillan leg now.

ITS DEEP DOWN THERE!

So backbto the Newberry turn 8:32 and no sign of anyone!

You're first in line to Perfect!

If you're heading out now you Will encounter me. 

2/16/2025

So, anyone been in or outta Newberry trail 9 in a while? 

Glad it wasn't me!

It's fixed, 1 4 place trailer in the Timber Charlie's parking lot there, past 26 heading in before I got to the trail head on 446!

Busier Sunday than it was Friday so far.

Made it to 498, if that wasn't the ugliest I've ever seen it, it was a tie.

But of course it's not now 

12 miles in to a 98 mile run, LOTS of work to do, if you're coming or going you'll have a smooth ride, ill make it pretty on the way back.

WINDY CORNERS? PRETTY.

11:00 So Everthing north out of Newberry and Windy Corners has been groomed once, Windy Corners in and out, supposed to get down in the try and not die before they get here if I break down range, so it should have a good 8 hours being lonely and setting up, and in a few hours I'll return to shave the top, pack a little more and make it pretty 

Gotta go.

11:53 So much for unmolested 

12:45, Seney Crew been and gone as expected, you could pretty much set your clock there.

Still pretty rough north of 498, see how it goes from here north.

Been snowing like this pretty much since I left Pine Stump, pretty sure I'm still doing a petty good job,,,keep hearing about all these below Temps all around me, un sruck the wipers twice now,.

Back in the barn, 10AM, Pit crew ready to service her, de-ice, re-driver and send her back to pull the Piston Bully out of a stuck.

2/11/2025
We have been out working on trail 9 fixing all the high pushed up corners back flat All our trails were groomed last night and they will all be done again tonight from Newberry to holland lake trail head and back then from Newberry to the upper Falls and back then from Newberry to cut river and back enjoy them while it isn’t so busy before the weekend gets here

2/3/2025
All of our Groomers are out and all of our trails will be all groomed by morning please get the groomer tracker app and you can keep up with where the groomers have been and half of the proceeds go to the clubs it’s a win win

1/30/2025

37⁰ and some sun made that snow stick wherever you folks threw it today!

Bet is was pretty noticeable by days end huh?

And why we worked hard yesterday packing our new snow in, we want to keep it right where it is!

24⁰ Now, Our (correction) FEARLESS leader Chad is sending all three out tonight, see if we can fix any little bumps that may have occurred during the process of the day 

(And it not just us, nature of our beast)

1/29/2025
Bringing her home from Pine Stump this morning, at least 10" has fallen in the area overnight, I shoveled 9" yesterday, had to do it again this morning!

Let's go see what we've got.

We've got SNOW. LOTS!

1/24/2025

Here we go, headed up 9

Out of Newberry, not nearly as bad as I was expecting, she's flat now for your return home, AND!! came upon several groups of on comers and DIDN'T HAVE TO STOP ONCE!!!! TY TY TY!

Actually, sitting here and just saw light go out ahead, GOTTA GO

So ya, learn something new every ride, early on tonight is don't park with your lights pointing down the trail when your just plinking away on your phone 

Snows working with me really well tonight, bustin up, plenty of it and laying out flat.

30ish to Windy Corners..

10:27 Arrived

Bet if you had the spaghetti special at WOLF INN Grill & Spirits tonight you shook it up pretty good getting outta there huh!

Its fixed and my incoming traffic is dwindling pretty fast, so low traffic on the way out, be odd to see anyone after midnight so looking good for a restful cure of the entire length back 

11:00PM

Just made the right to go north! Pine Stump bound!

2:45 Arrived, through once, going again, needs it. (they know who runs these machines,) just sayin.

4:05 Holland Lake Park & Ride.

I see Grand Marais had just been up and turned around south of Pine Stump where we tee but no activity where we meet at Holland Lake.

I've seen ZERO sleds since I went into Sleepy Corners!

Probably won't for the best part of 4 hours now, 8 hours just lying there 

Snow Report

All in all looks to me like everyone was very kind to our trail today! 

Be nice if we had 10"-20" of base so we didn't have to be as careful, it will come until then thanks for taking that into consideration 

I'm going to circle Great on my report!

I did the heavy lifting filling all the holes (minimal) on the way up, drag should be able to lay a nice cover over it all on the way back,.

8:54 Don't know what it is about this McMillan leg we do, but I love it!

7:38 before I saw my first sleds snoozers! 

Still awesome out here, carry on snoozer!

Day breaks are the best!

11Am End of the line, all looks good!

1/22/2025

So nobody forecasts or speaks about the 2" of snow dust we automatically get here every night, and then most nights it snows some with that and I shovel 6" daily to get out!

I'm heading out again on Trail 9 still leaving Newberry, very pleased with the amount of new snow I have to work with!

And seems like most read our informational post a couple days back 

5:02 out my window. Wolf Inn & North Store.

8:30 Pine Stump 9:00 Holland Lk Park and ride.

Spoke with three gentlemen from Aligan that volunteer and groom for a club down that way.

Need a Trail Report ?

Here it is, that was my quickest smoothest ride up her this season!

This trail is in better shape now than all season and most of the last two I've groomed!

You ABSOLUTELY can NOT use the excuse no, or low snow to come up and see us this weekend!

GET PACKIN!

One additional thought, (last pic) if you don't know how to start moving forward without burning a hole in our track, would you please kindly have someone in your group teach you.

Thank You.

Update 4:30 AM

End of the line, all of trail 9 north of Newberry including the McMillan leg have been gone over twice, and should have had around six hours to set up before it starts getting molested!

Looking good out here !

Trail 45 and around Newberry is being groomed tonight 1/13/25 as well.

TASA will not be grooming the South Trail due to the lack of snow. Trail 45 to the falls was groomed last night 1/12/25 and Trail 9 is being groomed right now 1/13/25.

1/9/2025
All water holes are fixed on Trail 45 to the Falls. Please use caution. TASA side only not Paradise.

1/6/2025

We groomed 9 North 498 and 45 to the falls. Looking at Groomer Tracker Seney made their way across 431 to us and Grand Marais came across 8 over to us as well. Should be a great Sunday. It snowed on and off all weekend. I think we've picked up between 8 and 10 inches of lake affect in the north country.

We did run 45 to the falls and opened the gates. There are atill a couple of water holes on either side of 510 that we are going to try to address today. There were some down trees as well. Make sure to give a big thanks to all our drivers and volunteers keeping things going.

1/4/2025
Gate is open off of Co. Rd 500 we did run the groomer into the falls it’s all good.

1/3/2025

Good Morning Everyone.

 

It's 19 degrees and snowing.   Lake affect snow is supposed to continue through Sunday.  Since yesterday we have picked up about 6 inches.   We did just come out of about a 3 day warm up which set up a really good base.   With the base and the fresh snow, we should have a great weekend for riding.

Trail 9:  Good:  Groomed yesterday

Trail 498: Good:  Groomed yesterday

Trail 45: Fair/Poor:   Currently we have the gates at County Rd 500 closed.  We expect to have them opened up in a day to 2 now that the cold is setting in.   

Trial 9/2: Poor:  We have not had a chance to run this trail yet as it is really thin after las weeks warm up.  

12/30/2024
Morning everyone. It's been a warm few days. The North trails still have base which is great. We closed the gates on 45 because it is just to wet right and unsafe right now. Temps start really cooling off mid week so hopefully this is a short closure
Dont change those weekend plans. Looks like there is some potential for some good lake effect starting Wednesday.

12/26/2024
We groomed 9 up to Holland Lake staging area last night. We also got that downed tree on 9 cleaned up. Today starts a bit of a warmup for the next few days. Keep your fingers crossed it doesn't hurt us too much.

12/24/2024
Update: Signage has been installed.
About a 1/2-mile North of County Road 510 on trail 45 we have reports of the trail being eroded from water flowing across creating a hazard. We will be headed out to mark this today but in the meantime please pay close attention to this area. It would be best to avoid it all together.

12/23/2024
We ran from Pine Stump up to Holland Lake last night as well as 498 to the North Store and back to Newberry with both groomers Both are in good shape. Then we sent a groomer to Epoufette. There wasn’t a lot of snow but there’s a lot of vehicle tracks in the trail because of deer hunting that we wanted to get out before it warmed up.

12/21/2024
The gate is open off of County Road 500 to the Falls. We have not groomed that section yet. Please use caution. We did groom last night up to CO Rd 500

Good Morning everyone. Its currently 16 degrees out. Temps finally cooled off and we were able to get back out grooming. We just ran up to Pine Stump last night. We also picked up about 4 inches if fresh lake affect in the north.

Hi everyone. If temps allow we are going to send a groomer North to Pine Stump tonight. On my drive in this morning there was still a good amount of snow on the trail right along M123 by the logging museum. Thats a good sign that the rest of the trail should be ok as the snow typically gets deeper as you go north. Temps are going to be cooling off the rest of the week as well.

Currently 7 degrees this morning. We groomed trail 9 north up to Holland Lake staging area. Its in really good shape. Traffic is still pretty light even for the amount of snow we have north.
We also groomed the south trail 9/2 down to H40. Its really thin and we won't be heading that way again until we get more snow.
The gates on trail 45 are still closed and the weather is calling for a slight warm up Sunday and Monday so its not likely they will open up this weekend. There is also some logging going on around camp 7 road.
Its early season still and ive seen a few other clubs such as Paradise and Grand Marais post about a few water hazards. Please check their pages if you plan to head in those directions. Don't forget to turn your What 3 Words app on before you go.
Stay safe, Ride Right.

We are grooming 9 up to Pine Stump and 498 tonight. We are going to hold off grooming the south trial down to Epoufette. There isnt enough snow and we feel we would do more harm then good. It is ridable but gets thinner the farther south you go. Logging still on going around camp 7 road on 45 heading to the falls. Watch out for possible water holes as well closer to 123 at Newberry. Hopefully with the cold temps the next few nights these will freeze over.
It looks like a good weekend for riding. Be safe and ride right.

Curfew in the Village of Newberry is 11:00pm to 7:00am.

Trail 9:  Good:  Plenty of snow.  We sent a groomer up Monday night.  13 hour run to Pine Stump due to the amount of snow and downed trees.  Groomer returned to the barn.  We are going to run it again today.  

Trail 498: Good:  Groomed last night  

Trail 45: Good/Poor:   We panned this trail yesterday.  We found some water holes in the typical areas between 123 and the Skyline.  Loggers are in around Camp 7 road and have it plowed down.  Lots of large clumps of icy snow on the edges of the trail.  We are working with the logging company to better manage this.  Stay tuned.   The gates remain closed at County rd 500 as the swamp still needs to freeze over.  

Trial 9/2: Fair:  We have not had a chance to run this trail yet.  The south did not get as much snow from the big storm over Thanksgiving that the North Country got.  A storm did come out of the south yesterday which should help but it did come with some good winds so you may run into drifts in the open areas.  I haven't seen any totals yet but as soon as I have more info, I'll let you know.

TASA has been out panning the trails and there is plenty of snow. We are in another winter storm warning and could get another 9-12" by Friday morning.

Just a reminder to anyone out riding the trails. Please use caution due to any falling branches due to the heavy snowfall. Also please remember that it is still hunting season so please be respectful of the hunters.
