Keweenaw Peninsula Trail Report – 01/29
KEWEENAW PENINSULA UPDATE via Keweenaw Snowmobile Club – 01/29
Shaping up nicely! Trail 122 is only open from Lake Linden to Sawmill Road (logging – please respect this closure). Trail 133 is still wet in many areas, with the cold snap we’re hoping to get out there this week but do not want to risk burying equipment. Think snow and ride right!

KEWEENAW PENINSULA UPDATE via Keweenaw Trail Reports – 01/29
W🤩W! Just W🤩W!
What a trip Greg Schmidt took from Minoqua Wi to Copper Harbor, Michigan.
L👀K at these beautiful photos from a partial blue sky day on Brockway Mountain.
Greg shared the details of his trip with us, “…..here are some pictures from our awesome ride to the Keweenaw! We started our ride in Minocqua, WI and headed up Wednesday, January 26th. Stayed at Hackman’s Hollow in Twin Lakes which was very convenient being right across the street from a restaurant. The views and trail all the way up on trail 3 to Houghton were spectacular! As we got through Houghton we headed up on trail 17/3 on smooth trails in Calumet and then took 134 out to the High Rock trail. Decided to try to head out to High Rock but about a mile into it turned around due to the high moguls. I was surprised by the amount of snow. Prior to heading up the reports I heard was there is no snow going out to High Rock but it sure looked like they had plenty. Anyways back to the report…😁 We headed into Copper Harbor on 134 and that was smooth as silk! We headed into Copper Harbor and then started up Brockway Mountain and man the views were like driving into a Bob Ross painting! Got to the top and took in all the spectacular views! After taking some memory making pictures we headed back down and stopped at another lookout overlooking Copper Harbor and Lake Superior. After getting gas at the Copper Harbor Fuel Stop, we stopped to eat at The Mariner North for lunch which was OUTSTANDING! Heading back we headed down 134 to 3 and took 124 out to Gay. Trail 124 was so good we headed back out that way as well. Once we got back on 3 south to Houghton the trails started to get a little rough but what do you expect after a full day of riding? Topped gas off in Houghton before heading back to Twin Lakes. Made it back to Minocqua Friday afternoon. 530 memorable miles and we will BE BACK! 😁”
What an amazing trip, Greg! Thank you SO much for sharing the many details of your trip and the beautiful photos!!

WEATHER UPDATE via US National Weather Service Marquette Michigan >> Expect morning flurries to give way to sunny skies this afternoon over the central and western U.P. Light lake effect snow showers will linger over the eastern U.P., mainly close to Lake Superior. Expect a warm up this week with the warmest temperatures over the west and near the MI/WI state line. #miweather #keweenaw #westernup #marquette #munising #seney #newberry #soo #straitsareaExpect morning flurries to give way to sunny skies this afternoon over the central and western U.P.

WEATHER UPDATE via Michigan Storm Chasers >> Lake effect flurries and snow showers are possible today, March 1st, 2026 across some of northern Michigan and the Upper Peninsula. With dry air mixing in, totals will be relatively kept in check, but a swath of 1-3", perhaps 4" is possible along M-28 south of Grand Marais. Changing wind fields will also allow for light/brief accumulations along some of our lakeshore regions in the Lower Peninsula, but it's not guaranteed for everyone. Timing is through the remainder of the day. Mild temperatures coming later this week, which should help begin the melting process for many. #miweather #keweenaw #munising #newberry #sooLake effect flurries and snow showers are possible today, March 1st, 2026 across some of northern Michigan and the Upper Peninsula.
