Sault Ste. Marie Area Trail Report – 12/06
SAULT STE. MARIE AREA UPDATE via Sault Ste. Marie Snowmobile Association >> 12/06 12/6/25 Rider report on the city trails- “I just wanted to let you know from Reno’s car wash to Holiday/Krist gas station, the typical trail is pretty clear. There was only 1 smaller water hole. The trail between Reno’s and Walmart has a lot of very small wet spots but none of them were holes. Where the two trails meet between 49 and 449 still has a flowing river by the road that sneaks up on you very easily if you don’t know it’s there. Photos taken right about in the middle between Reno’s Car Wash and Walmart.” This is on 49 from the business spur, along Ashmun, back toward Seymour and Kewadin Casino, and the split from 49/449 toward Walmart. We really appreciate the feedback guys! Ride safe! ❄️❄️❄️ <> <> Sault Ste. Marie Snowmobile Association Facebook Page <> SAULT STE. MARIE AREA UPDATE via Sault Ste.

Our Raco crew is crushing it! Already 3 grooms in 2 days!
Please keep in mind, on trail 480 there is construction and we cannot groom from 472 to the gate on the Raco side yet.
Here’s Brimley Bill’s report from his run-
“After Dave groomed the Mission Hill route (889) , I went out and groomed the route from Raco to Brimley and Raco to Spile Dam (8 and part of 480). Raco has more snow than Brimley or the Soo. I made the first run on 480 to the Spile Dam Road turnaround. A couple photos show how deep the snow was before I packed it down. Use caution on trail 480. There were still tracks from automobile traffic.
Trail 8 gets thinner close to Brimley. There are also some thin spots on the powerline, since it is more exposed to the wind. All in all, this is a great start to the season. More cold nights and snow in the forecast.”
Thank you Bill! Looking awesome, especially for December 5th!! ❄️❄️❄️ #soo #snowphotos
