Lake Gogebic Trail Report – 01/07
Wow, now that we’ve survived the “polar vortex” we can report that our trails are in the best condition we’ve ever seen! The severe cold set them up nice and hard and flat and with the almost non-existent traffic over the last few days you are sure to get the ride of a lifetime up here right now. The real cold seems to be on its way out and ushering in temps expected to hit high 20’s by this weekend. We’ve been getting snow almost every day, even with the cold, and the forecast is calling for additional snowfall for most of this next week. Groomers are out on all trails with no problem areas to report at this time.
I’ve been requested by law enforcement to mention that it is not legal to ride on any railroad tracks, most especially the tracks that run through Merriweather and Bergland. Stay on marked trails only, for your safety as well as others.
*Remember to be mindful that a bridge on trail 8, just east of Bergland, is out and it is marked. The trail will be rerouted over the dam at the north end of the lake where the trail was a couple years ago.
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.
