FROM Hanson Hills >> Nordic/Fat Tire/ Snowshoe Trail Update for Today
Rain yesterday and above-freezing temperatures have left the snow surface too soft for grooming. Using the trails under these conditions would rut the surface and damage the base, so the trail system is closed today to preserve conditions.
We’ll be back at it once the trail system freezes back up and conditions allow.
Downhill & Tubing is scheduled to resume Friday 4pm! #hansonhills #SkiMichiganNordic/Fat Tire/ Snowshoe Trail Update for Today

FROM Hanson Hills >> Trail Update for Today :
Nordic-Fat Bike Trails
Due to warm temperatures and forecasted freezing rain, grooming operations will be suspended for the day. Operating equipment under these conditions would risk damage to the snow surface and underlying base.
To preserve trail integrity, the trail system will be closed today. This proactive closure helps prevent rutting and glazing and allows the base to firm up once colder temperatures return.
Outlook: The forecast remains unfavorable through the remainder of the week, limiting our ability to resume grooming. Conditions will be assessed daily, and trails will reopen as soon as weather and surface conditions allow.
Thank you for your patience and understanding as we work to protect the long-term quality of the trail system. #hansonhills #SkiMichiganTrail Update for Today :
