After our warm up over the weekend things are looking better. We have gotten any where from 5-8 inches of new snow with temps in the teens last night. Temps for today will be a high of 22 with snow and a low tonight of 14. Thursday and Friday they are calling for temps in the 20’s with low of 4 on Thursday night and 13 on Friday night. The cold nights will help get those wet spots to firm up.

The Gogebic Range Trail Authority Report:
Trail 2 from Ironwood to Marenisco is being groomed right now. This is the only trail that will be groomed today. The groomers are hoping to go out tonight to get the other trails groomed. With the exception of trail 2 which will be in fair condition with wet spots in the problem areas all other trails will be poor. There is running water in the creeks and the swamps are still open. PLEASE USE CAUTION IF YOU PLAN TO RIDE.
Trail 11 south will be closed for the season due to logging.

Lake Gogebic Groomer’s Report:
Well, we’ve got a slight improvement after Mondays rain, it turned to snow overnight giving us about 3-inches. However, it is very wet snow…on top of rain…on top of already wet ground. We’re expecting mostly 20’s for highs this week, although the nighttime temps look to drop down into the single digits later in the week which should help a lot. Can’t say for sure how good conditions will be for this next weekend just yet but for now you should stay off the trails as you will encounter a lot of wet and mud in some spots.

The Watersmeet Groomer’s report:
Groomers will go out tonight and get the trails back in shape. With the new snow we have gotten condition are fair with wet spots so please use caution when riding. We will have a better report tomorrow after the groomer go out.

Please remember groomers are out both day and night, so watch for them, Please pull over or at least slow down and wait for the operator to signal you by whenever you see them. Groomers have the right of way.

JUST ONE MORE REMINDER: PLEASE STAY ON MARKED TRAILS. RIDING ON UNMARKED TRAILS CAN RESULT IN THE CLUBS LOSING EASEMENT FOR THAT TRAIL AND IT CAN ALSO RESULT IN A POSSIBLE TICKET FOR YOU.
