Forbush Corner Cross Country Ski Report – 03/11
Wednesday- March 10th, the trails are hanging in there. The rain pushed north, which is a really good thing for the survival of the base and our ability to groom up what base is left. We still need to get through warming temperatures overnight and another round of rain.
It is looking like it will be too warm to be open on Thursday. We will report again tomorrow on conditions once the temps start to drop.

FROM Forbush Corner Cross-Country Skiing >> Here is our plan going forward into the week. The shop will be closed tomorrow, Wednesday and Thursday. The side gate on Roberts Rd will be left open, and the trails will be available to ski. If not a season pass holder, please leave a $10 trail fee in the slot provided near the east shop entrance.
On Friday, we will resume full operation through Monday. We expect that this will be it for the season. #forbush #crosscountry #snowphotos #SkiMichigan
FROM Forbush Corner Cross-Country Skiing >> Temps went below zero last night and some light lake effect snow is falling. We will be grooming, check Nordic pulse on our website later this morning for the fresh groom. We still have 100% coverage on our trail system. Open at 9. Gates close at 5. #forbush #SkiMichigan
FROM Forbush Corner Cross-Country Skiing >> The weird concrete snow that we received from the last storm turned into sugar mush yesterday once it was groomed. It rained this morning and is close to freezing. It's to warm to groom with the Pisten Bully at this time. We are going to try to use the Tiddtech to smooth out the skate lanes on the loop. If the base is too soft for the snowmobile we will not continue grooming. Classic tracks are icy at this. Colder temps tonight will allow us to groom on Monday. Base is in great shape with 100% coverage. #forbush #SkiMichigan
FROM Forbush Corner Cross-Country Skiing >> Full system groom for skate and classic planned in spite of the Spring-like weather. We have plenty of snow. 100% coverage. Open 9 to 5.
Pines loop Friday morning. #forbush #snowphotos #crosscountry #SkiMichiganFull system groom for skate and classic planned in spite of the Spring-like weather. We have plenty of snow. 100% coverage. Open 9 to 5.
Pines loop Friday morning.
FROM Forbush Corner Cross-Country Skiing >> We plan on being open today but the overnight rain and temps above freezing do not bode well for any new grooming. Temperatures go below freezing tonight so we plan on a full system groom for Saturday. #forbush #SkiMichigan
FROM Forbush Corner Cross-Country Skiing >> It took a couple of days but we are dug out, and all trails are clear. 100%+ coverage. We plan to be open the next 5 days, Thursday through Monday, 9 to 5. Grooming plan for skate and classic (might change depending on weather): East side trails will be groomed tomorrow. West side Friday, and Pines Loop on Saturday. #forbush #crosscountry #snowphotos #SkiMichiganIt took a couple of days but we are dug out, and all trails are clear. 100%+ coverage.

FROM Forbush Corner Cross-Country Skiing >> Well, the storm left us with a weird mess of frozen snow. We spent over an hour trying to break it up and access the doors of the shop, yurt, ski school and vault toilets. We were unsuccessful with the vault toilets, but will try again once it warms up. Wednesday's plan is to get the piles of built up cement snow out of the entrances and get the parking lot plowed. We will also check the trails for downfall.
We plan to open up this Thursday through Monday. Looks like another great week of skiing is on tap. #forbush #crosscountry #snowphotos #SkiMichigan
