Temps rose to 30 this a.m. with a light mist on top of the 2" of snow we had overnight, kind of a mess, temps are suppose to drop once the front clears & kick in the snow guns again. 7 days straight so far...

The Lift Bridge cannot be locked down until December 15th or when the canal freezes. Groomers were...

    3-5” late Sunday/Monday in Vilas

    I have always been conservative in the snowfall outlook, especially that far out. I certainly could not hold onto the totals that were being forecasted that far out & did not expect what we received. I look at it this way, I would rather be an underachiever as an amature in that area as I am not...

    Dec 1st an additional 5"+ this morning. A lighter variety this time, but, ground warmth still affecting the ground layers making it kind of heavy. 23"+ is my 3 day total here in the Banana Belt.

    Measured 8"+ this morning, been snowing steady all day, still snowing now. Spent 6 hours plowing & shoveling today, some areas I've done twice. I've had enough of that for the day. There will be enough to begin panning the trails on Dec 1st everywhere here in the U.P.
