Keweenaw Peninsula Trail Report – 02/17
KEWEENAW PENINSULA UPDATE via Keweenaw Trail Reports – 02/17 Well we have our “white” and our “greens” back! Yay for the snow that we received and for grooming operations back marking the Groomer Tracker up showing trails that were hit last night! Huge thank you to The U.P. Superior Snowmobile Club and Keweenaw Snowmobile Club for getting out there and doing what they could! Trail 3 from Mass City to Houghton was groomed/panned and prior to grooming operations, riders reported the areas around Twin Lakes had received more fresh snowfall. Please see a few of Brent Mason’s photos from yesterday afternoon. Brent made the last minute decision to head up to the Keweenaw just to put a few (s)miles on and support the area businesses! He enjoyed a delicious meal (as always) at Boondock Inn U.P. North Resort! Brent said he will probably start riding out of the Twin Lakes area today and let us know how he finds trails today! Thanks Brent! Trail 17 from Hancock and Trail 3 up to 134 and then 134 up to the Copper Harbor had grooming machines down them last night, as did trail 132 according to the Groomer Tracker App. Adam Garvey and crew shared a few photos of their ride yesterday also north of Phoenix. Adam would like to remind riders that you can find him today at The Mariner North – stop in for a warm up and some delicious food! Then on Sunday at 10am any one is welcome to meet at Adams/Frosty’s on Lac La Belle for breakfast and a ride around the Keweenaw area! The snow that fell last week across the area was lake effect snow and there is a couple more inches in the forecast for today! Winter is trying to reenter and we are optimistic that March riding will be good! If you don’t yet use GT, please download the app and subscribe to the trail systems you ride for up to the moment grooming operations! Follow Midwest Weather for continued forecasts! You can checkout webcams on the www.johndee.com website and we shared the The Trailside Lodge/Copper Country Rentals current shot along Trail 17! Check them out for your lodging and rental needs all year round! ✅The Portage Lake Lift Bridge has been REOPENED and sleds may cross. The businesses of the entire area miss seeing you all and are just as excited to see the snow as the riders are! Stop and frequent as many as you can either by sled or vehicle! <> <> <> <> Keweenaw Trail Reports on Facebook >>>> <> WEATHER UPDATE via US National Weather Service Marquette Michigan >> A chilly day is expected for the first day of 2026, with highs mainly in the teens and light lake effect snow continuing for the west to northwest wind snow belts through tonight.
