KEWEENAW PENINSULA UPDATE via Keweenaw Trail Reports – 12/10 W🤩W! What a crazy, busy start to the 2024/25 season! It’s not often that tgere is decent rideable snow on opening day! We have had so many messages regarding conditions and asking for help in planning trips to the Keweenaw area to ride! We apologize if we haven’t gotten back to you yet and are working on getting caught up! Looks like we have additional white gold on the way also! Great trails all the way up to Copper Harbor and back. Only came across 4 other sleds the entire day. We stayed at Adventure Motel and ate at Parkview Lodge & Grill and The Mariner North in Copper Harbor. Great food and lodging!” Thanks for sharing Jacob! So glad your early season riding was good! <> <> <> <> Keweenaw Trail Reports on Facebook >>>> <> WEATHER UPDATE via US National Weather Service Marquette Michigan >> Ongoing snowfall will taper off through this morning before a second clipper takes aim at the Great Lakes tonight through Wednesday morning.

Most of us got that quick burst of 1-2" (locally 3") earlier, and we're already onto the next system - later today!! Fast!
Notice we'll have a distinct rain/ snow line to the south.
Models have all come together nicely. That's a great thing because it lines up with my forecast quite nice. My snow map was posted earlier! Scroll my page!
Some areas are looking at up to 6"of snow.
Rain falling into cold snow pack roads will cause some very slick conditions. Dirt roads, I'm talking to you! You know this already, though haha.
Most treated roads to the south will be ok, though. Anywhere all snow all the time (north of I-96) will be very slow going!
Want a home with a fireplace and big windows to watch the snow!? (I dream of this) #miweather #keweenaw #westernup #marquette #munising #seney #newberry #soo #straitsarea #gaylord #cadillac #benzie #traversecity #petoskey
This is late Tuesday thru Wednesday AM only. Repeat that. 😅
About 1-2 inches could fall Tuesday AM before this second system moves in.
There will be some rain mixed in to the south. Please note that'll make back dirt roads quite slick for those folks.
Temperatures stay in the 20s further north, so it'll be a lighter, fluffy snow.
Roads Wednesday AM won't be fun.
This is followed by cold and some lake effect! More slick roads possible with that. #miweather #keweenaw #westernup #marquette #munising #seney #newberry #soo #straitsarea #gaylord #cadillac #benzie #traverscity #petoskeySnow time!!

Slow but surely all the clubs are making headway on the trails. There's still lots of work to get everything open ans we thank all the volunteers that have come up to help.
