SAULT STE. MARIE AREA UPDATE via Sault Ste. Marie Snowmobile Association >> 12/1/25
It’s opening day in Michigan!!!
We picked up a couple more inches overnight here in the Soo, slowly building what will become our trail base. I show around 8” on the ground here at my place, just off of trail 8.
As we said yesterday, we haven’t received as much snow as areas directly to our south and west. Temps remain cold, and that’s a huge plus to help us freeze the wet areas.
If you venture out, please be safe and watch for water holes, and hidden objects.
If you encounter a closed gate, please do not go around it as it’s closed for a reason- either the landowner is still hunting, or conditions are not safe yet.
We will keep you posted as soon as we are able to start grooming operations.

WEATHER UPDATE via Meteorologist Brad Sugden >> SNOW POTENTIAL!! Essentially, this is nearly the same map I shared previously. I just narrowed the ranges slightly. Shape is the exact same. I do think some lake enhancement from Lake Huron is possible, so, I highlighted that. Also, the higher elevations of the western U.P. COULD get slightly more. I'd say it's just a chance, but a big enough chance that I added it to the map. This is just a fine, fine tune before the big event. Think of it as I just polished my Stingray before a car show 😛 Feel free to ask questions in the comments! I am ALWAYS here to do my best to clarify and help so you can know exactly what to expect. #miweather #keweenaw#westernup#marquette#munising #seney #newberry #soo #straitsarea#gaylord#cadillac#benzie#traversecity#petoskeySNOW POTENTIAL!!
