New update since last night…we received about a foot of fluff over night and it’s still coming down. Couldn’t be prettier or more fun to ride through!

We have got perfect conditions for great trail riding this weekend, with highs in the teens and lows in the single digits and plenty of snow in the forecast through the weekend. Over last night and through today we’ve received anywhere from 5 to 7-inches of new snowfall, more over our northern most trails (102, 1 north, 13 north, 8 west and 8 east) and perhaps less over our southern most trails (1 south, 13 south and 100). It’s already looking to be a busy holiday weekend so be sure to keep an eye out for others while out enjoying our beautiful trails.

** Mark your calendars for The Lake Gogebic Chamber of Commerce sponsored Radar Run on February 1st, to be held at the Gogebic Lodge. **

That’s all for now from Carolyn at the Hoop. I will keep you posted as often as conditions change. For additional information about the Lake Gogebic area we invite you to visit the only official website of the Lake Gogebic Area Chamber of Commerce at www.LakeGogebicArea.com or call us at 1-888-464-3242 (888-GOGEBIC). From all of us here at Lake Gogebic have a great ride as well as a safe ride.

This weeks snow has brought the trails back to near perfect conditions. We rode about 70 Miles yesterday with a large group. The trails were covered in a blanket of 10 inches or so of new snow. The groomers have been out putting the trails back to excellent condition for the weekend. This winter is shaping up to be one of the best in a while. We have seen an increase in daily sled traffic in and out of Peegeo’s. Everyone says the trails are great and we’ve had great feedback about our trail system from newcomers. If you have not had a chance to ride the Boardman Valley you need to make the trip. If you need a sled for a friend or are looking to rent a few and come to our area we can accomodate.

Great news… Blue Sky is offering the new E-tec 600 Grand Touring. These are awesome machines with more power, better fuel efficiency, and more features than the 600 touring. We are booking out fast for the next couple of weeks but still have four and eight hour rentals available.
