FROM Hanson Hills >> ❄️ WEDNESDAY NORDIC UPDATE — JANUARY 28, 2026 ❄️
🎿 Nordic Trail Update:
🏡 Lodge and trails open at 9:00 AM
We received about 2 inches of new snow yesterday—a nice refresh for the trail system.
Groomer Dan is getting a well-earned day of rest today. Justin will be heading out on the groomer after this morning’s GRA Board meeting, which means grooming efforts will begin around 9:30 AM.
➡️ Red Trail will be the first pass once grooming starts.
🧣 Cold Weather Reminder:
An Extreme Cold Watch remains in effect. Please be sure to layer appropriately—think windproof outer layers, warm gloves or mittens, face protection. We strongly encourage taking frequent warm-up breaks and listening to your body while out on the trails.
Thanks for your patience this morning and for looking out for yourselves in the cold. We appreciate everyone’s understanding and support—see you out there! #hansonhills #crosscountry #snowphotos #SkiMichigan❄️ WEDNESDAY NORDIC UPDATE — JANUARY 28, 2026 ❄️
