We got about 2 inches of snow overnight. It continues to snow now. The snow advisory is in effect until 5 pm today. NOW is the time to ride! The snow covering the ice will make decent riding. It was cold all day yesterday, and will continue thru today. High tempt 26 degrees. Tomorrow the high will be back up to 40. After that temps will remain in the 40s or higher. So, the window to ride is very narrow. Today, Tonight and tomorrow morning look like the best chance.

It’s a beautiful, "crisp" day on the Keweenaw today. About an inch or so of new snow last night to brighten things up. Groomers are out on both snowmobile and ski trails. It’s going to warm up starting tomorrow tho – springlike temps all next week. Maybe you want to be here right now! — Via Michigan’s Keweenaw Peninsula Page
