10/31 Update: This week we completed all preseason brushing and sign work throughout our over 160miles of trails. Special thanks to the group that helped assist the USFS with moving a gate further into the woods on trail 324 (trail to bozo’s hill that leads to Mr. Bibs). This gate had been problematic for several seasons and was hit by the side of the groomer drag often since there wasn’t enough space to make the turn. Signs were also checked and fixed throughout any remaining areas of trail in the area.

We are in the process of final preparations on the tractors to be ready for snow on December 1st. The main issues are getting help and approval from partners at USFS for a short reroute on trail 3 South of Baldwin and getting our JD 6195R back from the new Soucy track installation in time to prep and hitch up the drag.

Thanks again for all the volunteers who helped out to get the trails in shape for the upcoming 2026-2027 season!

It is with great sadness, Trailriders has lost a property lease along evergreen on trail 3 south of Baldwin. Due to very vulgar and disrespectful snowmobile riders over the last couple of years, that section of trail is gone. It was what was called the cemetery bypass off of 56th street. Currently, we are working with officials to get a temporary route for this season. A permanent route is being worked on which we will not see until next season. Please follow detour trail signs, and please stay on the trail.

Thanks,
Dan TRSC president.

PS. We are also signed up for the groomer tracker app. Hopefully, we'll have that up and running by the first snow

Thank you to those who joined us for annual election and breakfast event. We were able to re-elect 2 current trustees and our current vice president. Thanks for all of our board members and their contributions to keeping the club running smoothly.

We had our groomer operator workshop immediately following the meeting. Unfortunately we only had a small audience for this event, there will be a follow up event when we get the JD 6195R back from the dealer with the new tracks. Anyone that will be running this tractor must attend or will not be allowed to run it. We have way too many track issues in the past on this tractor and need to ensure everyone who runs it understands what to inspect and maintain.

10/18 Pre-Season trail maintenance update. Done! We finally completed all of the manual pole sawing, downed tree clean-up and sign installation. Thanks to everyone who came to help us this year. We were able to complete the work over about 7 full 8-12 hour Saturdays along with several weekdays. That is well over 100+ hours of work to complete the manual part of the work on over 160 miles of trail! Several members earned at least one Michigan snowmobile trail permit and some even will get 2 provided by TRSC.

Reminder, please join us this coming Saturday October 24th, at 10am at our clubhouse in Baldwin for our annual breakfast and election meeting. We have a few roles on the board to fill, you can help shape the future success of TRSC.

This meeting will be followed by our groomer operator workshop. A DNR representative will be present to share the latest information. ALL operators whether new or seasoned operators with our club MUST attend in order to be eligible to groom this season.

Volunteers needed this Saturday October 17th. We are looking for help to complete our last section of preseason trail work. We plan to meet at the groomer barn in Baldwin (6991 S Astor Rd) Saturday at 8am. If we get enough help, this should be the last full day of preseason trail work. As usual, we will provide food and beverages while working.

Special thank to all the volunteers who have stepped up to help out this fall! We appreciate all of our regular volunteers and all the new ones who have joined us this fall.

10/07 preseason trail update: Special thanks goes out to TRSC President Dan L., Trustee Allan P., and new members Dave G. and Mike S. Who completed trail 3 from 8 Mile Rd to White Cloud in Newaygo County. They removed a lot of trees, did pole sawing on high limbs and fixed all the signs.

We are still planning on doing our North section and rail trail this Saturday October 10th, meeting at the clubhouse at 8am. Please reach out if you can help.
