Sleeping Bear Heritage Trail Cross Country Ski Report – 12/28
Sleeping Bear Heritage Trail and Palmer Woods
December 28, 2022
All areas of the Heritage Trail (except just north of Empire) have been groomed.
Palmer Woods – Price Valley Trail and Darwin Loop have been groomed.
Warm weather will cause melting and slushy, icy conditions.
Down Tree Near Empire – There is a massive tree down across the trail completely blocking the trail about 0.5 miles north of the Bar Lake Trailhead parking lot. I’m not sure when this will be removed. Groomers had to turn around there, so the trail is not groomed between Empire and the down tree.
Dune Climb Sledding:
Sand is now mixing with the snow at the Dune Climb. Warm temperatures will melt what snow is left, and we’ll be back to sand!
Backcountry ski and hiking trails (Old Indian, Platte Plains, Windy Moraine, Bay View, Good Harbor, Alligator Hill)
Fresh snow everywhere – warm weather and hikers will make these trails slippery. Wear micro-spikes or Yak Tracks for traction
Popular Hiking Trails (Empire Bluffs, Pyramid Point):
Packed snow and icy conditions will prevail during the warm-up. Micro-spikes or Yak Tracks are recommended if you are going to hike these trails.
Be ready to get out on the Lakeshore Trails whenever the snow flies and get the most up-to-date information about the winter trails and activities around the Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore on our ‘Winter Trails Report’ page.
