Newberry Area Trail Report – 02/28
NEWBERRY AREA UPDATE via TASA Tahquamenon Area Snowmobile Association >> 02/28 Think I’m in for a pretty spectacular ride! <> <> NEWBERRY AREA UPDATE via Pine Stump >> 02/28 Starting to snow pretty good!!! <> <> NEWBERRY AREA UPDATE via North Store Follow Me Outfitters >> 02/28 Mother Nature is not done yet… <> <> NEWBERRY AREA UPDATE via Pine Stump >> 02/27 I keep seeing all the posts about springs here and the snows all gone. Dont put your snowmobiles away yet ladies and gentlemen! There is a lot of snow on the trails still. The groomers weren’t out yesterday so the trails are bumpy. I’ve seen them a lot bumpier. I would guess the clubs will all be out tonight it’s supposed to get cold The videos are of trail 9 going north of pine stump towards trail 8, trail 8, and trail 9. The trail going north towards trail 8 is the best it’s been in years! 8 has plenty of snow and was bumpy but not terrible . Trail 9 going south has plenty of snow but was bumpier than trail 8 for sure. They should all get groomed up nice tonight and be ready for a good weekend! We are getting into early spring conditions. Towns will probably be a little challenging. We have a bunch of parking out back for anyone that needs it. Then you’re in the good snow! This weekend should be good and next weekend as well. We are prepping for the vintage show on the 15th. The first half of March should be good and I bet you can ride until the end of the month unless something crazy happens! <> <> <> <> Visit Tahquamenon Area Snowmobile Association Trail Report <> Visit Tahquamenon Area Snowmobile Association on Facebook <> Visit Newberry Area Tourism Association on Facebook <> NEWBERRY AREA UPDATE via Trails End Lodging >> The snow continues to fall this morning in Windy Corners!! ❄️❄️❄️ #newberry #snowphotos From Ironwood to Watersmeet, trails needed major work! At best, 3 on a 10 scale. WEATHER UPDATE via US National Weather Service Marquette Michigan >> Warm temperatures are expected today, especially over the interior west and central, before a cold front passing through mainly the eastern U.P. brings clouds and colder temperatures late this afternoon through tonight. Some fog, drizzle, and freezing drizzle is possible behind the cold front this afternoon through tonight. #miweather #keweenaw #westernup #marquette #munising #seney #newberry #soo #straitsareaWarm temperatures are expected today, especially over the interior west and central, before a cold front passing through mainly the eastern U.P. brings clouds and colder temperatures late this afternoon through tonight.

A stretch of quieter weather follows this weekend into early next week, featuring partly sunny skies and temperatures moderating into the upper 30s and mid 40s. #miweather #gaylord #cadillac #benzie #traversecity #petoskey #soo #newberryLight snow chances linger today, mainly across eastern Upper Michigan, with highs in the mid to upper 30s to low 40s.

Expecting most locations to warm above freezing during the day and then fall below freezing overnight. Many locations in western and southern Upper Michigan may warm above 40 Friday and Saturday! #miweather #keweenaw #westernup #marquette #munising #seney #newberry #soo #straitsareaWarm and mostly dry conditions are expected to finish the week.

WEATHER UPDATE via Michigan Storm Chasers >> We know you'll pass by this post for snowfall today, but here on February 12th, 2026, it's quite a reflective moment to see just how far we have come this winter. Just a couple weeks ago it was lake effect snow every single day. Today, a light band of 1-3" near Munising is all we will need to write home about. We even tossed in some humor for those not in a designated snowfall zone. A couple slick spots will pop up along M-28 near Munising, and perhaps around Petoskey if a longer lake effect band happens to form, but this is more unlikely than likely. PARADISE AREA UPDATE via Paradise Area Night Riders www.paradiseareanightriders.org >> 2/12/26 WEATHER UPDATE via US National Weather Service Marquette Michigan >> High pressure will gradually build into the region today and Thursday. This will slowly diminish lake effect snow showers from west to east. It will also help usher in a warm and mostly dry period. Most can expect above freezing temperatures during the day and below freezing temperatures overnight into at least early next week. #miweather #keweenaw #westernup #marquette #munising #seney #newberry #soo #straitsareaHigh pressure will gradually build into the region today and Thursday.

I heard they’re not grooming after today but why is that? Suppose to get down to 23 degrees tomorrow night? NEWBERRY AREA UPDATE via Pine Stump >> Wednesday 2-11 WEATHER UPDATE via US National Weather Service Gaylord Michigan >> Additional snow is expected across parts of the area today. Those north of the bridge will see around another 1” through this afternoon with most areas getting less than 1”. Freezing drizzle will be possible across northern Michigan into this afternoon. Slippery roads may result in localized hazardous travel, so be sure to use caution while driving! #miweather #gaylord #cadillac #benzie #traversecity #petoskey #soo #newberryAdditional snow is expected across parts of the area today.

I went for a little spin this morning to see how things help up to our few warm daysPostings From Regional Pages On Facebook
It was 9 degrees this morning when I got up at 0630, it is now 22 at 0800 and cloudy....weird weather! It is supposed to get up into the low 30`s today and drop into the low teens at night. "They" are watching for a "big storm" coming in for early next week but temps into the 30`s....weird weather. Nuff on that....lets get to the trails....
All trails were run yesterday and they are all in great shape. We will run almost around the clock all weekend to keep them that way for you. If the warmer days start to break up the ice in the low lands I`ll be sure to let ya`ll know, but for now we are in GREAT SHAPE!!!! Bout all I got to report.
LET `ER SNOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

4 degrees this morning under a bright blue sky. I picked up about an inch of fluff on my deck last night. I`m sure ya`ll are seeing the weather forecast for the next couple weeks. It looks like the temps are gonna warm up into the 30`s during the day. We have at least 3' of snow on the ground in da woods but the warm temps are not gonna help our cause much. We should be fine for a while but the roads we use for connecting trails will start to thaw and turn muddy. I am already getting questions about it being worth the drive coming UP! For right now I am saying YES, plenty of snow in da woods and our trail system is in GREAT shape. I do predict our wet areas will start to open up and I`ll keep ya`ll informed on how that progresses. Our high ground trails....ie....mainly the Pine Stump trail #8 & #9 will hold up for a while. So......get yer bunnies UP here and get it while it lasts!!! All trails are good to go right now!!!!!!!
LET `ER SNOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Here’s a current look at Trail 498 coming into Windy Corners — fresh snow and ready for riders.
Heading north for the long holiday weekend?
Where will you be riding from? ⬇️
Wherever the trails take you, ride right and be safe. #newberry #snowphotos
Few snow flakes in the air
We have a ton of snow on the ground. Trails are excellent
This weekend will be Busy for sure.
Some warm temps coming in the 30s it looks like. Our snow won’t melt in a few days so don’t be thinking that
If town gets melted down and hard to navigate we have all kinds of parking out back. Trailer up for the day and go ride!! No overnight parking or long term parking
We have a few more weeks of winter left up here at least come enjoy it!! #newberry #snowphotos
Overnight wet snow and light freezing rain could lead to some slick roads this morning!
Lake effect snow showers and gusty winds could lead to some rapidly changing visibility on the roads through tonight, especially close to Lake Superior and in the Keweenaw.
Late this week, temperatures warm up, including multiple freeze-thaw cycles. Lake ice may become hazardous! #miweather #keweenaw #westernup #marquette #munising #seney #newberry #soo #straitsareaKey Messages:

25 degrees this morning with a light snow falling. We`ve received a couple inches in the last few days but nothing to brag about. We have been in a deep freeze for about a month now, but it looks like its gonna warm up a bit for the foreseeable future into the upper 20`s to low 30`s for highs and upper teens to low 20`s at night.
I haven`t been on here much cause nothing has changed....all our trails are in GREAT SHAPE!!!!! I will be on here more often now as this warmer weather comes along to keep ya`ll informed more. As long as it gets below freezing at night I don`t see much of a problem for a while but the warmer days will start hurting our swamp areas....but thats what I`m here for....to keep ya`s informed!!
COME ON U.P.!!!!!!! The riding is premo!!!!!!
LET `ER SNOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
