Keweenaw Peninsula Trail Report – 01/13

KEWEENAW PENINSULA UPDATE via Western UP Trail Reports >> 01/13

12.5 inches in 24 hours is a pretty good dusting. I’m seeing a possible 5″-11″ more by tomorrow and cold. Wednesday & Thursday we’ll get a break in the snow then back at for the weekend.

KEWEENAW PENINSULA UPDATE via The Lakeshack >> 01/13

We picked up just shy of 6” new snow
And 22” on the ground and still coming
We want to remind folks to stay right but mostly to slow down out there!

Another life was lost the other day on trail 3 just south of us here in Twin Lakes and speed was believed to be the cause
Let’s have fun and make it home to our families out there..

KEWEENAW PENINSULA UPDATE via Western UP Trail Reports >> 07 January 2026
Sorry for the crappy video but you guys have been asking for one so here it is. We're at 117.5 inches total so far and 23 inches on the ground with around a 7 inch base. Things should shape up by the weekend so don't cancel I'm pretty sure you'll be OK.

Michigan Snowmobile Trail Report

WEATHER UPDATE via US National Weather Service Marquette Michigan >> Today, the morning fog and freezing drizzle will give way to a quiet but warmer than normal day. Fog returns tonight, though the weather remains quiet until a system passes south of the UP Thursday afternoon, bringing a wintry mix of rain, freezing rain, and snow to the UP, though the heaviest rain will fall along the Lake Michigan shores. Once this round of precip wraps up Friday afternoon, attention then turns to the potential for weekend snowfall, though plenty of scenarios are still possible, so those with weekend plans sensitive to winter weather should monitor the forecast. #miweather #keweenaw #westernup #marquette #munising #seney #newberry #soo #straitsareaToday, the morning fog and freezing drizzle will give way to a quiet but warmer than normal day.

Sault Ste. Marie Trail Report – 01/12

SAULT STE. MARIE AREA UPDATE via Sault Ste. Marie Snowmobile Association >> 01/12

1/12/25
If you left today, I’m truly sorry! We are getting fresh snow and wow what a welcome sight! A group of us, a few members and volunteers, took a ride up toward Paradise today. We tried to get there, but there is a pretty nasty water hole on 8 just north of Lakeshore. I would not go that way until the Paradise club says it’s frozen over. We turned around and took Lakeshore to 123 to 474 to Hulbert and back the same way.

Beautiful ride!

On our return trip, we ran into groomer Dan with the Chippewa Snowchasers club on trail 8. Shout out to him for smoothing out the weekend whoops after a crazy busy weekend! Awesome work Dan!
8 back on our trail system and the city trails are holding up great. The fresh snow will only make things even better!
Hope you all enjoy as much as we did! ❄️❄️❄️

SAULT STE. MARIE AREA UPDATE via Sault Ste. Marie Snowmobile Association >> 1/7/26
Good morning everyone!
Bryan and his son Logan hit the city trails last night, ahead of the little warm up we’re having through Friday.
As all operators have been saying, the snow is still very soft, which does make moguls appear faster. Things smoothed out really nicely, and this thaw/refreeze cycle will really help lock in the trails now.
The tunnel under I75 was gathering more snow than we’d like as we have to be mindful of the Tucker clearance, so he worked on pushing some of that out of there.
Thank you Bryan and Logan!
This was likely the last grooming run until Friday as we get through the next few days of warmer temps. Everywhere is as flat as we can get it until Friday.
Today marks 1 month until the greatest race on ice, the International 500 Snowmobile Race!
We’ll be in the brand new vendor pavilion, where Sugar Island Chris and crew will be serving up the worlds best hot cocoa, and answering your questions about our club and the trails that we maintain.
I plan to head up to the track often and I’ll update how the ice is looking over the next month.
Make plans to be here! You can ride your sled to and from the track. Saturday, February 7th!
Hope to see you here! 🏁 ❄️🥶 #soo #soo0107 #snowphotos
