It’s Spring Time – Time to Snowmobile?

Traverse City, MI – As the pages on the desk calendar turn, we have rapidly and quickly entered the official season of Spring.  Thoughts of cherry blossoms, golf outings, gardens, freshly-mowed lawns, fishing the streams and on and on and on.  It’s a great time of year, no doubt.  But just as cheerful as these thoughts are to many, they can be dashed with a 10-15″ snowstorm!  What the french toast!

Oh well, another chance to snowmobile.  The weather is forecasted to remain cold, keeping the trails in good shape.  C’mon “Up North” for one last ride on the trails.  We’ve recently become associated with “The Snowmobile Guys” online….just in time for…errr, spring?   They are the biggest and best snowmobile resource on the internet.  Our link for Northern Michigan travel accommodations is also on their webpage.
