Expect rocks and wet areas. Trail 11N is closed due to wet conditions, swamps are not frozen. Trail 160 remains closed as well as 11S – they will be groomed when the wet areas firm up-

GOGEBIC AREA GROOMERS Lake Gogebic groomers are out trying to get the trails in shape and filling in wet areas to get them to firm up…lots of wet areas remain- reporting early riding conditions-mostly poor but a little better on the northern trails.
