The Lake Gogebic Area Groomers are reporting:
With approx. 8 – 10-inches of new snow since Saturday and some extremely cold temperatures arriving during the early Sunday hours we’re getting set up for much improved trail conditions. Groomers are out on most of the trails – still doing some filling in any remaining wet areas – and should be over all trails by Tuesday. We’ve got more extreme cold through most of this week with additional snow amounts in the forecast for each day. Tuesday is calling for the most snowfall with upwards of 8-inches. This said, caution should still be used on all trails as conditions will probably run from poor to fair to good, but all trails will have some trouble spots on them for awhile.

Please check locally for lake conditions. It is changing hourly. We suggest strongly to stay OFF THE LAKE.

Watersmeet Groomers are reporting:
The groomers are in the barn waiting for more snow. Cold temps and snow are in the forecast
Trails are rideable; there are some wet spots so use caution.
