Haven`t been updating in a couple of days cause we haven`t been grooming. It has been snowing though!!! We have picked up 4-5 inches of lake effect the last couple of days and the temps are remaining below freezing….so things are looking UP!! We have some work to do on the groomers tonight and then we will be hittin the trails tomorrow night. Traffic has been almost zero around here so I`m sure we`ll have some great trails to work with. I`ll post a full report Friday morning to let ya`ll know what`s UP. LET IT SNOW!!!

The snowmobile trails from Twin Lakes to Copper Harbor are officially open, but more snow is needed to groom. Some panning has been done on part of the trail system. As soon as conditions improve the Keweenaw Trails Services will turn loose its fleet of groomers to get the trails in shape. Early season conditions.

Any trail usage should be done with extreme care until we have better snow cover as there are rocks, stumps, branches and wet areas not covered by snow and hazards that have not been identified.

The Keweenaw Convention & Visitors Bureau asks that you stay on the trails, STAY OFF THE ICE, respect private property, do not drink and drive, and above all else, please, drive safely. The signs on the snowmobile trails are there for the riders’ safety. Please, DO NOT remove or destroy these signs.

Remember to watch out for the groomers when you’re out on the trails….they have the right of way!!

Please be aware that if you snowmobile on U.S. Coast Guard property you could face federal trespass charges.
