FROM Friends of Sleeping Bear Dunes >> ❄️ Winter Wonderland Alert! ❄️
We’ve been treated to 12-18 inches of fresh, fluffy snow since Wednesday of this week! Our amazing team started the week braving an Arctic blast of cold air and wrapped it up tackling a constant flurry of snowfall. Phew—it’s been an incredible winter adventure for our dedicated volunteers, and we couldn’t be more grateful for their hard work!
The trails are now in FANTASTIC condition, and our crew is heading out today to put the finishing touches on grooming. Get ready to enjoy a beautiful winter weekend out on the trails! Below are details on trail conditions. The @leelauconservancy is grooming Palmer Woods and you can check out their snow reports on their Faceboook page.
Ski Conditions
Pierce Stocking to Empire: Groomers are heading out today (Friday) to re-roll and reset track as it was covered by more fresh snow.
Dune Climb to Pierce Stocking: Currently has been rolled and tracks were set a while ago but have been covered by snow they are re-setting tracks today.
Pierce Stocking to Glen Arbor: Best conditions at this point, rolled and classic track set, los of folks were enjoying both CC and skate skiing yesterday.
Dune Climb Sledding: Conditions look great for sledding! Bring goggles, the snow will be flying as tracks are cut into the snow.
A Huge Thank You to Our Volunteers!
We couldn’t enjoy these trails without your dedication. If you want to express gratitude feel free to post photos and a comment on our social media pages and we will be sure to share it with our team!
