Western U.P. Trail Report – Western U.P. Bureau – 02/28

Here is our final report for February. Temps will be a high of 25 today with lows in the teens. Looks like our temps will co-operate through the weekend with cold enough temps to allow our groomers to still get out and do what they are good at. Trails are nice and firm..Get out and enjoy some riding could be one of the best weekends to ride.

The Gogebic Range Trail Authority: Reports all trails are groomed. With temps in the 20’s after today it is still cold enough for our groomers to get out and groom. Over all conditions Good-some are very good, and as usual, you will run into some fair which mainly depends on traffic and weather. Please be careful on hills and corners which can be icy.

The Lake Gogebic groomers report: Grooming will continue weather permitting. Expect some bare spots around corners along with some ice. Trails are in good condition but again you will run in to some fair spots depending on the traffic. PLEASE REMEMBER TO PULL OVER IF YOU SEE A GROOMER. THEY HAVE THE RIGHT OF WAY…
Just a reminder the Bergland Mobil gas station has closed, so plan your fueling accordingly.

The Watersmeet groomers report: All trails are groomed every night weather permitting. Trails are in good condition expect some bare spots near town but out of town trails are as smooth as can be.

Keep in mind groomers can be out day or night so watch out for them and please pull over or slow down and wait for the operator to signal you by.

Please be careful on corners as you know several Michigan Trail signs have been discontinued. These signs are posted on our trail map. PLEASE BE SAFE!!!!
