FROM Hanson Hills >> 🌧️ TODAY’S TRAIL & OPERATIONS UPDATE 🌧️
Tuesday | January 13, 2026
🎿 Nordic Trail Update:
It’s 34° and raining in Grayling this morning. Groomer Dan was able to comb Red, Yellow, Brown, and Blue with the Tidd Tech early, but pulled off the trails once the rain began.
At this point, it’s best to stay off the Nordic trails to avoid unnecessary rutting. The good news—our base is holding up great, and this light rainfall should not cause any long-term issues. Fingers crossed the forecasted snow arrives tomorrow to freshen things right back up.
🏁 Cote Dame Marie Registration:
Race day is coming fast!

🚴 Fat Bike Trail Update:
Best to stay off the trail during the warm, rainy conditions to protect the surface.
🎓 Programs Update:
