Here it is the first of March. Temps will be in the 20’s with lows in the teens and signal digits for the weekend. Few snow flurries for today with mostly sunny for Saturday. 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. 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!!!!

I am happy to report that riders that went out yesterday and this morning report the trail has improved from when we rode Wed evening. A group went north to Indian River and called back at 9 am saying the ride was beautiful.

It was a fun ride. This is a picture of trail 4 winding thru the pine trees. (More photos)

There are just a few out there today. We are booked this weekend, and glad to know people are ready to enjoy riding our trails in the March sunshine. There is a good base snow. Forecast is showing clear skies for most of this week. Temps stay below freezing.
