Lake Gogebic Trail Report – 02/21
February 21, 2016
The groomers are back out again with temperatures dropping down enough to allow for grooming, however the trails will still be in pretty rough shape until we can get some additional snow as we saw a lot of melting and refreezing over this last weekend. Temps look to run a little warm again mid week but this is predicted to drop again by Thursday with much colder night temps later in the week. Looks like conditions should be good for this last weekend in February. Hopefully we’ll hang on all the way through March for lots more snowmobiling!
VERY IMPORTANT -We want to remind all to be sure to exit the lake at the Bergland Dock – DO NOT RIDE BEYOND THIS POINT. We think some of you may have mistaken the cell tower with its red flashing light in the distance as a spot to ride to – which will take you right to the dam.
They may still be trucking logs out over a portion of Trail 102, so continue to watch out for logging trucks and always give them the right of way for your safety and for the privilege of riding on the logging company’s property.
The logging on a portion of Trail 13 south has been reduced already to about a mile of that section, south of the Root Celler. Please keep in mind that the logging companies have granted us easement to run our trails on their property so we have to respect the signing and stay out of their way or risk losing the easement. Reduce speed through this area and watch for truck traffic. Please remember to always ride to the right and single file to prevent accidents, especially on blind corners.
Please ride safe! That’s all for now from Carolyn at the Hoop. For additional information about the Lake Gogebic area please visit the chamber website at www.LakeGogebicArea.com or call us at 1-888-464-3242 (888-GOGEBIC). From all of us here at Lake Gogebic we hope you have a great ride and a safe trip!
