ONTONAGON AREA UPDATE via Scott’s Superior Inn and Cabins – 11/30
❄ Winter Wonderland Alert! ❄
The snow has officially arrived, and Mother Nature has outdone herself—nearly 2 feet of fresh, powdery snow has blanketed the area, with even more in the forecast! 🌨 If you’ve been dreaming of winter adventures, this is your sign!
We’re thrilled to share that some of the local Snowmobile Club are hard at work and has plans to begin setting the trails starting next week. 🛷 These early preparations are crucial to ensuring a smooth and enjoyable ride for everyone all season long.
🚨 A friendly reminder: During this critical trail-setting phase, we kindly ask all snowmobilers to hold off from using the trails until they’re officially ready. Riding on the trails too soon can make it challenging for the grooming process and affect the quality of the trails for the months to come. Let’s work together to kick off this season right!
We can’t wait to welcome you to this snowy paradise—whether you’re here for the trails, the views, or cozying up at Scott’s Superior Inn and Cabins, where Lake Superior is the perfect backdrop for your winter getaway.
Stay tuned for updates, and let the countdown to an epic snowmobiling season begin! ❄✨
