Snowmobile Report -

UPDATED 1/25/23

Base:1-2" inches

PAST 24 Hrs: 2 inches
CONDITIONS: Poor

Looks like we can at least get back on the trails this weekend. Snowing now and 1-2 expected, with another small snow expected Friday night. I wouldn't expect grooming anytime real soon, but with the little bit of icy base and this 2-4", there should be enough to keep things lubricated. What a tough year its been so far for sledders and businesses alike! I'm praying this is the start of a real winter pattern for temps and snow. Looking nice right now (3:40 PM) and radar is showing some more. Stay tuned for grooming updates.

Ice Fishing Report -

UPDATED 1/26/23

Most places are looking pretty good right now but still need to becareful with these mild temperatures. Anywhere near any areas that drain in to the lakes like creeks are going to be suspect. Currently there is about 2-3" of fresh snow. Have a great weekend, stay safe.! Stay tuned to updates from Pilgrim Village Fishing Shop.
