Sault Ste. Marie Trail Report – 02/28
SAULT STE. MARIE UPDATE via Sault Ste. Marie Snowmobile Association – 02/28 2/28 6 pm update- The wind is still huffin’ and puffin’ and trying blow this house down. Barely any accumulation yet, but all forecasts agree that it’s still coming. <> 2/28 3pm- updated and extended. Now up to 12” in spots. So far, just a whole lot of wind, and annoying blowing snow here. Wind chill of -12. No doubt, whatever was on the trails is very solid right now. Time will tell if we do indeed get the measurable snow to cover it up. <> <> Sault Ste. Marie Snowmobile Association Facebook Page <> Sault Ste.

Again- we are NOT saying it’s going to be great riding, we know it’s not going to last so keyboard warriors can sit this one out LOL. Only sharing info for those that want to know and plan to be here to hit the forest service roads for one last hoorah.
It is highly unlikely that we will be grooming.
Radar for overnight courtesy of Midwest Weather when I asked him if it was still coming. You be the judge ✌🏼Postings From Regional Pages On Facebook
Good morning!
Lane ran 472 west to Tilson Rd and made a huge improvement in this trail.
In a couple of weeks, we’ll finally be able to groom from there through 480 in the Spile Dam.
Please see the pinned posts for more info.
Thank you, Lane! Looking great! ❄️❄️❄️ #soo #soo0106b #snowphotos
If you rode trail 49 from the Soo 12 mile prior to this week, you know what a night and day difference this is! Amazing!
Thanks to our operators who have been progressively grooming this trail. Really in nice shape now❄️❄️❄️ #soo #soo0106 #snowphotos
This is wild to me! Dennis just got back from his run on trail 49 from the Soo to 12 mile. I ran this route with groomer Jay for several seasons. The branches being this low on 1/5 is nuts! This entire trail was brushed, but the base is so tall now that the machine is so much higher that it’s hitting the branches that couldn’t be reached in the fall. We don’t usually see this until mid February.
We may need to organize a work bee to do some in-season brushing. I’ll share if we do!
Thank you Dennis and Chris for the ride along! #soo #soo0105a #snowphotos
Late Monday night into Tuesday brings a wintry mix which could create more slick road conditions. #miweather #keweenaw #westernup #marquette #munising #seney #newberry #soo #straitsarea
Good evening!
Beautiful work by Warren out in the Raco and Brimley areas earlier!
He reports that trail 8 from Raco to Brimley, 480 to the Spile Dam turnaround, and the powerlines are great!
I agree!! ❄️❄️❄️
