LATEST TRAIL CONDITIONS

SAT, MAR 7

Boyne Mountain: Due to the deep base we've accumulated, trail conditions are holding up pretty well, considering the rain overnight. We have a few icy spots, but overall decent skiing. The season is winding down, so get out there one more time!

Forbush Corner: We will be closed starting Saturday March 7th until the warms temps and rain ends around Wednesday March 11th Looks like temps drop on Wednesday March 11th and some possibility of snow. We will reassess the trails at that time and decide when we can open again. We have a lot of base on the the trails and fully expect most of it to survive.

Founders day is next Saturday March 14th We will have hot dogs, black bean burgers, drinks and some sides. We usually do a potluck if you want to bring something to share. $10 trail fees for the remainder of the season.

FRI, MAR 6

Stokely Creek: Great skating conditions this morning! The small uphills seemed non-existent with the free momentum rollercoastering me over the crests. Big hills had enough loose corn from the ginzu that they were perfectly controllable. Skating might be ok for a couple more hours, but touring skis will definitely be fine all day.

Cross Country Ski Headquarters: We will be closing the trails today, Friday, and tomorrow, Saturday, to preserve the base for the Michigan Cup Relay Race on Sunday.

THU, MAR 5

Nubs Nob: The morning sweet spot for the last 3 days has been awesome . The groomers are taking full advantage of the 20 inch hardpack base .

Hiawatha Highlands: Good Morning! It's another milder morning up here....currently at -2 C. The sun is shining beautifully!!

The groomer is currently out with the Piston Bully -- the 2k Lighted has been groomed for both classic and skate. He is currently on the Crystal....at the moment is fixing up the Hiawatha loop (boots), and will finish up grooming the 5k, classic and skate. The Pinder system was done yesterday and is holding up well, as is the Red Pine system.

We hope everybody has an awesome sunshiny day!!

Hanson Hills: THURSDAY UPDATE — MARCH 5, 2026

?? Nordic Trail Update:
