Do you ever wonder how the trail numbers and local names for the trails compare?
A little history for you. The Blue Bear was built first. The Blue Bear was named for Blue Lake and Bear Lake. The Cranberry Trail was named for Cranberry Lake which is near the trail just south of M 72.
Great news for snowmobilers riding through Kalkaska! The "designated route" has been eliminated and you may travel on any of the roads in the village except for "US" roads ex. (US-131). Please pay careful attention to the following three notes.
(A) Speed limit. Snowmobiles traveling within the village shall not operate at a rate of speed
greater than is reasonable and proper having due regard for conditions then existing and
in no event in excess of 15 miles per hour.
(B) Traffic flow. Snowmobiles shall travel to the extreme right hand side of the plowed
portion of any roadway (with the flow of traffic).
(C) The wooden bridge South of 1st street is closed to snowmobile traffic. The concrete bridge between the wooden bridge and US-131 is open to snowmobile traffic
greater than is reasonable and proper having due regard for conditions then existing and

Please keep in mind that our groomer operators are all volunteers and may be out on the trail at anytime, day or night. When you approach the groomer, please try to find a spot off the trail to park and wait for the groomer to signal you.

Welcome to the 2019/2020 season
This summer has seen a huge amount of activity for our club. We started early this spring when the club formed a new board of directors. We moved our base of operation to the Blue Lake Fire Department. The fire department has been very gracious. They have allowed us to keep our equipment on site and gave us space to work inside. We were able to build a new trail through their property, so we can directly access the trail system.
We had a very successful ORV ride-in hosted by the Starvation Lake General Store. We had many riders stop by and enjoy great conversation, a hot dog, chips and treats. A great time was had by all. As the summer was winding down, we had our first ever pig roast! What an awesome time that was with great friends, delicious food and corn hole games.
Volunteer work continued through the summer doing maintenance, repairs and updates to our equipment. Volunteers also graded the ORV routes every other week throughout the summer. Brushing and signing took place through the month of October with many club and non-club members pitching in to make the trails safe for all riders. The trails have been inspected and approved by the DNR. The groomer OPERATORS are excited to get back out and make the trails awesome once again.
We hope to see you out on the trail, give us a wave or stop and say hi!
