TRAIL REPORT, Saturday, January 14, 2023 3:00 a.m.

TRAIL HOLDING ON NICELY DESPITE HIGH TRAFFIC!

Traffic is up this weekend but the trails are staying fairly flat with good snow cover and a good hard base. Sections of trails are becoming a bit sugary in areas and some ice developing in corners. Keep a close eye on conditions as you ride and stay right. We have a few wet trouble spots on Trail 418. The holes on Trail 418 are hazardous so ride and cross with extreme caution (Map in images showing locations).

Get out and enjoy some great riding conditions and keep the snow dancing going – we really, really need new snow.

MUNISING AREA UPDATE via TNT Trenary Northern Trails – 01/15

It was a very busy Saturday with plenty of traffic around for the long weekend and the trail took a beating. Even after leaving two hours later than usual we ran into a lot of traffic still out enjoying the day.

We expect the west bound side of the trail to get bumpy fairly quickly as just about everyone we passed was happy to be able to get off the beat up side of trail and onto something flat, can’t blame them for that today but without any set up time and about 30 to 40 riders passing us it was already getting bumpy by our return trip. The rest of the trail.and the eastern end are in great shape for Sunday.

Groomer Report:
Trail Condition: Good
Last Groomed: January 14th, 2023
Reported On: January 15th, 2023 @ 8:15am

We are alternating days grooming our trails with one of our groomers out of service for a few weeks at least. We will groom west from Trout Creek one day and the next day we will go east.
We groom every day that the weather conditions and equipment allows. There may be unforeseen circumstances that prevent us from going out, like a major blizzard and being snowed in at our homes or equipment breakdowns.

There is log hauling just north of Sidnaw for a few miles, it is signed. Trails 8/15 and the south end of trail 174. Be cautious of logging trucks and equipment in the area.

The logging on the north end of trail 174 has started, use CAUTION in this area! There are plenty of signs to warn riders.

ONTONAGON AREA UPDATE via Hamilton's North Coast Adventures >> Riding across the Ontonagon River bridge on trail 12 is a sight to behold! You soar 80 feet above the river on a dedicated section for motorized vehicles to use, how awesome is that?! It's one of the tightest groomer sections we have that provides very little margin for error. It's also a great view of Lake Superior, the Trapp hills to the south, and really lets you know how pro-snowmobile Ontonagon is. It's a tremendous destination full of amazing eateries like Up north cafe (best pancakes on planet earth), Syl's Restaurant, GiGi's Coffee and Sandwiches, Connie's Coffee and Subs, and of course the famous Roxey's Bar and Grill! What's your favorite stop for food in Ontonagon? #ontonagon #westernup #snowphotos ... See MoreSee Less
