Friday March 7th
Ended up doing a video out on the Fire Steel Bridges (I was forced into it). I ran down and met Todd and the gang at The Pit Stop Bar & Grill in Greenland. Then we shot up to Alston. Trails where in pretty good shape early on but like every day was getting rough after 5:00. The reroute on trail 3 in Twin Lakes was brutal. Those aren’t moguls they’re more like small mountains. Lol
Thank you Pat’s Motorsports for getting Todd back on the trail. It would have been a long walk back to Negaunee.
KEWEENAW PENINSULA UPDATE via Keweenaw Snowmobile Club >> 1️⃣ by 1️⃣ we’re making our way through trails damaged by the storm late November!

Huge thank you to all the volunteers, our team, locals and DNR staff who have supported this effort! It’s been unlike anything we’ve seen before. #keweenaw#snowphotos... See MoreSee Less
WEATHER UPDATE via Michigan Storm Chasers >> Here is our last call for ongoing system snow and lake effect snow from now through Sunday evening at 6 pm EST, December 20th & 21st, 2025. Uncertainty exists primarily in our trace-1" category which extends from Frankfort and Alpena south to I-96/I-69. The clipper moving through today may produce a quick squall of rain & snow with minimal accumulation some time beyond 1 pm EST, but models haven't determined if this band will solidify or not. If it does, the chance for a rain/snow mix exists in areas highlighted in the pink dashed box. This rain/snow mix would only be today. Any snow on Sunday will be lake effect off of Lake Superior, hence why our highest totals of 4-8" are located east of Munising over to Paradise. Not too impactful of a system in terms of Michigander standards, but do take it slow if you encounter any snow squalls and/or visibly slick roads. #miweather #keweenaw#westernup#marquette#munising #seney #newberry #soo #straitsarea#gaylord#cadillac#benzie#traversecity#petoskeyHere is our last call for ongoing system snow and lake effect snow from now through Sunday evening at 6 pm EST, December 20th & 21st, 2025.

ONTONAGON AREA UPDATE via Scott’s Superior Inn and Cabins >> 03/08
What an absolutely amazing day! I had the pleasure of giving some of our guests a tour, and we couldn’t have asked for better conditions. The trails were fantastic! Days like today remind me just how much I love this job!
1️⃣ Victoria Dam Falls – Completely iced over! I’ve never seen it like this before. Nature never ceases to amaze me! ❄️
2️⃣ Bonanza Falls – A quick stop to take in the beauty before heading up the trails. The fresh snow made everything look magical!
3️⃣ Lake of the Clouds – The final stop on today’s ride, and what a view! The perfect way to end an unforgettable tour. Thanks Arthur for taking over the last leg (had to go to back to the office).
If you’re looking for an unforgettable adventure, this is the place to be!

ONTONAGON AREA UPDATE via North Country Snowmobile Club UP >> 03/08
We recommend using 137/12 rail grade to access Ontonagon rather than trail 12 down Norwich road. We have ceased grooming the ditch trail detour. Erika Hoffmann caught our crew headed out yesterday afternoon providing these great videos. We have 1 groomer down, but we’re keeping up!

ONTONAGON AREA UPDATE via North Country Snowmobile Club UP >> 03/07
Trails are incredible. Download Groomer Tracker to see the trails we groomed over the last 24 hours. We did a few passes down Rock Hill trail 13 to set it up for a great weekend. Great snow on the trails!! Be careful of water hazards opening up, but they’ll be navigable. Cold temps last night helped trails freeze in hard during our grooming. Trail 12 from 101 North/NE to Ontonagon is not groomed.

ONTONAGON AREA UPDATE via Scott’s Superior Inn and Cabins >> 03/06
A fresh dumping of snow has hit the Ontonagon and Porcupine Mountains area this week, with some spots reporting over 20 inches of new snowfall! This has provided a much-needed refresh to the trails, creating a fantastic base for riding.
Trail Conditions:
Groomers are working tirelessly to catch up with the heavy snowfall. With this much fresh powder, it may take a couple of days to get everything fully packed and smoothed out, but riders can still expect excellent conditions across the Western U.P. Some trails may be a bit soft until grooming efforts are complete, so plan accordingly and ride with caution.
What to Expect:
Plenty of fresh snow for great riding.
Groomers running regularly, but some trails may still be in progress.
Watch for deep snow in ungroomed sections and be prepared for changing conditions.
Cold temps should help maintain trail quality in the coming days.
This is shaping up to be one of the best weekends for riding this season, so get out and enjoy the fresh powder while it lasts! As always, ride safe, respect private property, and support the local businesses that keep our trail system alive.
For up-to-date trail conditions, be sure to check with local clubs and grooming reports.
Happy riding!

The skies are clearing! The FRESH snow is DEEP! The groomers are headed OUT! We have 1 machine down and PB22 and NH20 are reporting for duty. Please ride slowly today with equipment out on the trails. Enjoy this video from North Coast Steve from Sunday night’s reset of rock hill trail 13 by the Ontonagon River.
Trails were mostly flat ahead of this snow, great riding ahead!

SIDNAW - WESTERN U.P. UPDATE via Sno Valley Riders Snowmobile Club >> Groomer Report: Trail Condition: Fair Last Groomed: December 19th, 2025 All of our trials are open and groomed. We would like the give a big THANK YOU to the DNR for helping us on trail 3 from Bruce Crossing to Rockland, they were insturmental in getting this trail open! It is still early season riding in many areas, watch out for wet spots and some thin snow areas. Overall I am calling our trails FAIR, there are some areas that are excellent and some that are not great but all are rideable. Please ride on the RIGHT side of the trail and STOP at the stop signs! Stay on the trail, if you don’t we could lose trail permissions on private property. Groomers have the right of way on the trails, pull over and stop to let them safely pass! We now have Groomer Tracker installed in our groomers. We groom every day that the weather conditions and equipment allow. Unforeseen circumstances may prevent us from going out, like a major blizzard and being snowed in at our homes or equipment breakdowns. #westernup... See MoreSee Less

LAKE GOGEBIC AREA UPDATE via Gogebic Area Grooming >> Update from the Marenisco section of GAG. Warm temperatures and rain on Thursday turned into snow last night and colder weather today. Crews out grooming trails and continuing to make improvements. Finally groomed the last leg of Trail 1 to PI and it was a challenge! A lot of work went into clearing all the downfall on the trail a short while back, but there was still quite a bit of wood buried in the snow that popped up once running the drag through. The return trip consisted of frequent stops to get all of it off the trail. Got everything smoothed out for the most part but there’s still some messy areas where trees were down and removed. Here’s the rundown on the trails in our area: Trail 1: Groomed and in good shape from Marenisco north to Trail 100. Closed beyond that temporarily. South from Marenisco is groomed to PI. There are still some rough sections with quite a few whips/low branches yet. Trail 2: Groomed and smooth through Marenisco to the Trail 1 intersection. Trail 13: Rerouted at Trail 100 to the north and then heads east at Camp 6 Rd where it connects back into the old section. It’s panned all the way to the Trail 2/13 intersection but still lots of water and rough sections. Use caution! Trail 100: Groomed from Trail 1 to M64 with some wet and rough spots. Panned from M64 to Trail 13 with some rough sections. Overall, the trails are in decent shape with some nice sections and also some not so nice. Again, use caution when riding. We appreciate the help from those riders taking down some of the whips and low branches. It’s slowly getting better but there are still quite a few out there so if anyone feels inclined, pack a shears and take some more out. Thank you!! #lakegogebic#westernup#snowphotos...

LAKE GOGEBIC AREA UPDATE via Gogebic Area Grooming >> Good Friday evening! Bergland Area Groomer's update. Current Temp's are around 12° rain changed over to snow around 6pm Eastern time yesterday. We received around 4". Not what we were hoping for, but it definitely helped. Today we took 2 machines up 102 and it had it's first groom of the season. Definitely not perfect but a step in the right direction. We did encounter a water hole (pictured) but it was filled with snow and 💯 passable. Trail 13 to Root Cellar will be opened up tomorrow and it will get it's first groom of the season. The trail's survived and surprisingly, we saw a lot of traffic today. We'll update on progress made with 13 tomorrow. Thanks everyone. Gogebic Area Grooming ❄️❄️ #lakegogebic#westernup#snowphotos... See MoreSee Less
