Keweenaw Peninsula Trail Report – 01/25
KEWEENAW PENINSULA UPDATE via Keweenaw Trail Reports >> 01/25 How far do you drive to ride the Keweenaw? Or how far do you backpack via snowmobile to ride the Keweenaw? The group actually traveled to Mercer, Wisconsin by truck and trailer and then unloaded the sleds and took the trails the rest of the way to Houghton to stay last night! Today they left Houghton and headed to High Rock Bay and The Rocket Range. Trail 136, the short spur trail to High Rock has not had a groomer down it yet this season due to low snow cover and a persistent water crossing. Good news is the water crossing has been reported as completely frozen after the extreme cold temps this past week, however the trail is pretty beat and in needs of grooming. The group rode into Copper Harbor to fuel up at Copper Harbor Fuel Stop and enjoy a delicious meal at The Mariner North before continuing their ride through Lac La Belle to Gay! Note: trail 133 (from Lac La Belle to Gay) has only been groomed 2 times this year due to low snow cover and has been reported as very rough the last 3 days. Please plan your rides accordingly and continue to check the Groomer Tracker app for current grooming operations. Thanks for sharing the beautiful photos Tegan! Enjoy the rest of your ride!

KEWEENAW PENINSULA UPDATE via Keweenaw Trail Reports >> Mother Nature just won’t make the switch over to spring! We received almost another foot of fresh snow over the last two days! Good to see my former wheel loader at work again Jay Sales <> Latest Trail Reports – Quick Links <>
Tegan Noltner and Josh Held are no strangers to riding the Keweenaw, but this trip they brought Tegan’s brother, a first time rider to the area! We always love showing people around this beautiful place for the first time!
All other trails within the system have been reported as great. Of course with the high traffic, the early birds definitely get the worm or we should say ribbon trails. Trails obviously can show signs of heavy traffic by afternoon and evening before the groomer operators are able to get back out there and work their magic! Huge thank you to the Keweenaw Snowmobile Club for their non stop efforts to provide the best possible riding experience for all riders! Postings From Keweenaw Trail Reports On Facebook

Oh yeah - did I mention snow? We got about 4" of pretty, fluffy snow.
Sunday, November 9, 2025 #keweenaw #snowphotos
The first one is the synoptic (aka "system") snow associated with a low that is moving east through southern Ohio. The counterclockwise flow around the low is shown over Metro Detroit as moisture interacts with decreasing temps, leading to this morning's snowfall.
Over the U.P. and Lake Michigan, the north winds are ushering in the coldest air of the season, which activates lake effect snow and transitions to the second portion of this snow event. Counties in the corner of southwest lower Michigan, northern Indiana and Illinois are set to receive a firehose of lake effect over the next 24-36 hrs, resulting in accumulations that could push one foot.
Portions of northern lower Michigan and the Saginaw Bay region are also set to receive lake effect snowfall through this evening, with amounts of 3-6 inches possible, with isolated higher amounts. #miweather #keweenaw #westernup #newberry #soo #gaylord #cadillac #traversecity #petoskey
