In a holding pattern. No groomer runs scheduled until this coming weekend for sure. Trails are holding now, but will not stand any traffic, as the weather is once again not cooperating. Temps yesterday of 35d, predicted all week, possibly rain Friday & Saturday, flurries on Sunday.

This will be good for the trees, but bad for the trails. We’ve been running on one storm all season – we need another one.
Have faith, we still have 2/3 of the season left. The groomers will flatten what we have just before it freezes, and then we will go from there. Looks like we will finally have an ice base by this time next week.

Take this weekend to do your mid-season sled maintains, take your pop cans back, and get rested up for the mid-season push.

Things are looking pretty bleak. Sunshine and temps in the 30’s until Friday. Not good news for our trails.

The Gogebic Range Trail Authority reports: Grooming has stopped for the time being because of lack of snow. Trail 2, 8 and 160 were groomed last week. Watch for icy spots,wet spots and bare spots. Trail 2 from Ramsay to Marenisco expect bare spots. Trail 8 has bare spots with icy corners. Trail 160 closer to the lake the snow is marginal. Trails 11s and 11n are not groomed we need more snow before groomers will go out to groom these trails. It is still early season riding we need more snow to get the trails in great shape. Be Patient!!!

The Lake Gogebic groomers report all trails are rolled. Groomers have not been out for the last few days we need more snow. Expect icy corners wet spots and bare spots. Remember it is early season riding conditions. You will find more snow more in the wooded areas. More snow is needed to get the trails in great shape.

The Watersmeet groomers have not gone out yet they need more snow.

All areas need more snow….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!!!!
