Trails are really nice right now. Skate lanes are flat and firm and the classic tracks are well formed and deep. Get it while you can!
Take care everyone.

There is already 12 miles of single track at VS thanks to MBTN.
Larry Treul and I put in a session together working on new single track @ valley spur on Tuesday. Excavator work is completed to lodge. Man doing the work is a school teacher in Rhinelander Wisconsin..he did a great job for us!!
It’s actually awesome already. If I recall correctly they are finishing up the last section back to the lodge?

Our partners Munising Bay Trail Network are having their annual raffle to raise money to build single track mountain bike trails. As you may know this is the group who has built the single tracks at Valley Spur. Did you notice you can win a Annual Valley Spur membership?Our annual 4th of July raffle is a great yearly fundraiser for our organization. MBTN usually starts selling tickets in March but the majority of sales come on the 4th of July when we walk the streets during the parade and set up our booth at the park during the day and our community, their families, tourists, etc. pull out some cash and support us. As you all know, Munisings 4th of July typical celebration has been canceled. We are asking for your continued support by purchasing a raffle ticket(,or tickets) by personally messaging us or mailing a check payable to MBTN, PO Box 164, Munising, Mi 49862 with your name, address, phone number and we will enter you.

Friends of Valley Spur are following NTN's lead and ending the grooming of the ski trails at Valley Spur. It was a great ski season. Take care all.This is where we unfortunately have to tell you that grooming is being deemed not essential under the Governor's Stay Home order. We are sending our grooming crew out to clean everything up tonight before the order goes into effect so it will be a great day tomorrow! To our local trail users, pease enjoy it and make the most of it. Staff and board members are continuing to advocate at the state level to allow our local trail organizations to groom and if something changes we will let you know. Hard thaw-freeze cycles in the next few weeks may render the trails impassable and limit our outdoor social distancing options. With feet of snow on the ground it will be many weeks before trails are usable for other activities which is different than other areas of the state. If you have concerns, please voice them to
Governor Gretchen Whitmer 's office and with our U.P. legislators.
Get outside. Stay healthy. Be safe.

NTN needed approval from the local Twp. which they now have and will continue grooming with volunteers as weather allows. VS is requesting this from our local Twp. So if the weather cooperates we may be able to groom. Stay tuned.
Thank you to all the groomers and volunteers for a great ski season! Stay safe and ski you next year!
Thank you for all of your extra hard work this year keeping the trails in great shape. It’s definitely been a challenging season.
Thanks so much for keeping the trails open and groomed for so long during this crazy time. It’s much appreciated!
The deck at the Spur was nice for skating today. When we finished we were told of the governor’s order and figured it might be our last ski of the season. Thank you groomers for your work this winter!
Beautiful warm sunshine today. I must go investigate and see what tracks are left!!
Thank you for the beautiful season!
This year was our first time that we joined as season members. It was so worth it! These are the best trails in Michigan! Thank you for all of your time and hard work! Love our time up there!
Wow! That really stinks. Groomers are typically on a snowmobile or in a vehicle by themselves so isn’t that practicing social distancing?
😢
😢😢😢
So bummed, I was planning an early April trip, but not now, with the mandate in effect. Haven’t left our residence in 8 days now.
Heading towards Z Trail. Full groom today.
Green with envy! Enjoy!
Yay! On our way now!
