Ironwood Trail Report – 03/17
IRONWOOD / WESTERN U.P. UPDATE via Gogebic Range Trail Authority – ORV & Snowmobile Club – 3/17
Grooming has been suspended through this warm up. Trail base remains substantial. Road routes still have a good ice pack on the edges, but you’ll surely be searching for banks at times. Water ponding is happening, but not bad. Some bare spots, but lots of good ice base. Plenty of riding to be had for sleds just being delivered!!

WEATHER UPDATE via US National Weather Service Marquette Michigan - Snow will end across the east today as the responsible system pulls away. Strong winds will also create areas of blowing snow and low visibility. If that wasn't enough, the combination of the wet snow this morning and the winds may result in some power outages. If you're out driving today, be prepared for quickly changing and potentially hazardous conditions... #MIWeather #keweenaw #westernup #marquette #munising #Seney #newberry #Soo #straitsareaSnow will end across the east today as the responsible system pulls away.

WEATHER UPDATE via US National Weather Service Marquette Michigan - Expecting a quiet start today.

Expect precip to switch over to rain during the day Wednesday, and then back to snow by Thursday. Hazardous driving conditions are expected tonight and some power outages will be possible... #MIWeather #keweenaw #westernup #marquette #munising #Seney #newberry #Soo #straitsarea
KEWEENAW PENINSULA / ONTONAGON UPDATE via Western UP Trail Reports - Today's ride with Harley and George Eakin aka Snowman.
If you've never rode south of Houghton you need to make plans next year. From Twin lakes take trail 13 to Greenland then take Trail 12 to Ontanogan. You have to stop in Stubbs Museum Bar and tell Jen that Stretch sent ya. Coming out of Ontonagon on trail 137 towards Rockland. Take a left at the T and you'll be on trail 13. Last catch trail 3 at Mass City and go north back to Twin lakes. It's right at a 100 mile loop that's always a fun ride.
☠️ Stretch ... #keweenaw #ontonagon #westernup #snowphotos
WEATHER UPDATE via US National Weather Service Marquette Michigan - Tonight's weather will be benign, with mostly clear skies and low temperatures in the single digits across the Upper Peninsula.
Attention turns to a messy winter storm starting Tuesday night. As the initial warm front approaches, the expected progression of precipitation will be starting as sleet and freezing rain. Throughout Wednesday, freezing rain will turn into rain, but the precipitation is expected to change rapidly Wednesday night from rain to sleet to snow. This is a complex system and minor changes in temperatures and the timing of its arrival will have impacts on what type of precipitation falls, so continue to monitor the forecast for such changes. Regardless of the details, some power outages are possible especially in areas of freezing rain and wind, and travel could be hazardous in many areas.... #MIWeather #keweenaw #westernup #marquette #munising #Seney #newberry #Soo #straitsarea
WEATHER UPDATE via US National Weather Service Marquette Michigan - Scattered lake effect snow showers will linger over the eastern counties this morning, tapering off by this afternoon. Conditions have improved along M-28, but continue to use caution. Blowing snow could still reduce visibilities this morning. Temperatures today will top off in the low to upper 20s with some 30s to the south as sunshine prevails this afternoon. But, the quiet weather will only last through tomorrow when focus quickly shifts to the approaching winter storm... #MIWeather #keweenaw #westernup #marquette #munising #Seney #newberry #Soo #straitsareaScattered lake effect snow showers will linger over the eastern counties this morning, tapering off by this afternoon.
