We have a ton of snow! Ontonagon County is buried in the white gold, and conditions are excellent for riding. Scattered lake effect snow is expected daily through the weekend, keeping trails refreshed. However, with bitter cold temperatures hanging on, be sure to dress appropriately and prepare for extreme winter conditions.
Our trails are groomed daily, providing some of the best riding conditions you’ll find. If you're looking for smooth trails and fewer crowds, midweek riding is ideal. On weekends, be sure to get out early—traffic picks up quickly, and trails will start to get bumpy by midday.
Enjoy the ride, stay safe, and respect private property and trail rules. See you on the trails! #ontonagon #westernup #snowphotosOntonagon County Snowmobile Trail Report
