Keweenaw Peninsula Trail Report – 12/14
KEWEENAW PENINSULA UPDATE via Western UP Trail Reports >> 12/14 14 December 2025 ☠️ Stretch <> <> KEWEENAW PENINSULA UPDATE via Keweenaw Trail Reports >> 12/13 Brrrrrr….. 🥶it was definitely a cold day to ride the Keweenaw, but Jason Kremer definitely wasn’t complaining! Lighting Event! (Checkout the video Jason shared with us in the comments!) Jason is a frequent rider of the Keweenaw and today definitely didn’t disappoint! Jason shared these photos and said, “You definitely need to tode to Copper Harbor tomorrow! Trails are not freshly groomed but they are flat and fast! The only slightly bumpy part was the trail up Brockway, but not bad for a Saturday in the Kee! There is zero traffic today, only met one group of sledders all the way from Hancock to Copper Harbor. Having a blast, will send you pics when I get service. Maybe we will run into a groomer on the way back!” Well, as you can see from one of Jason’s photos, they did come across a groomer on the way back from Copper Harbor! We hope you all enjoyed your Saturday as much as Jason did! Please note as of right now the, The Portage Lake Lift Bridge is not yet open for snowmobile crossing. That means you can not cross from Houghton to Hancock…. yet. The Coast Guard needed to close the shipping lanes and then the Keweenaw Snowmobile Club and the city need to coordinate laying the snow mat for sled crossing…. Hopefully, very soon! Thanks as always for sharing, Jason! <> <> KEWEENAW PENINSULA UPDATE via Keweenaw Snowmobile Club >> 12/11 We are happy to announce that Trail 122 to Gay has been cleared of down trees, the snow is thin in a lot of areas – but you can ride to Gay! The Portage Lake Lift Bridge is not open for the season yet. You can see below, it’s slow moving with so many down trees and branches. THANK YOU to the volunteers local and visitors who have helped along with our crew! Not the start to the season we expected, but we have a lot of season ahead! 😁 <> <> <> <> <> Keweenaw Trail Reports on Facebook >>>> <> KEWEENAW PENINSULA UPDATE via Western UP Trail Reports >> 30 January 2026 KEWEENAW PENINSULA UPDATE via Western UP Trail Reports >> 29 January 2026 KEWEENAW PENINSULA UPDATE via Keweenaw Snowmobile Club >> WOW, things couldn’t be better right now - the cold combined with nearly constant snowfall have created AMAZING conditions here in the Keweenaw! #keweenaw #snowphotosWOW, things couldn’t be better right now - the cold combined with nearly constant snowfall have created AMAZING conditions here in the Keweenaw! #snowmobiletrailgrooming #keweenawtrails #trailgrooming #adventurenorth #snowmobileseason #keweenaw #keweenawsnowmobileclub WEATHER UPDATE via US National Weather Service Marquette Michigan >> Expect lake effect snow showers today in the north to northwest wind snowbelts.

Things are looking real good so far this year. The trails that have been groomed are staying flat and are in very good shape. Hopefully this week all the clubs can wrap up getting the rest of our trail system opened up.
THINK SNOW!

Looks like Saturday is going to be the nicest day in the past 2 weeks, 20° and partly cloudy. So if you're coming up this weekend the trails are in very good shape and warmer temps.
