Michigan Trail Report


Western U.P. Trail Report – Western U.P. Bureau – 02/18

Today and tomorrow our temps will be below zero with very cold wind chills so dress warm. Make sure all skin is covered because you can get frost bite in a very short time.

Our trails are in great shape, best all season long. Come up and enjoy some great riding.

The Gogebic Range Trail Authority Groomers Report:
All trails are in good to very good condition. All trails are groomed. Watch for the detour around a large water hole on trail 11N signs are posted. There is still logging on 160 so watch for logging trucks. Logging trucks do have the right of way. Trail 11S is closed due to logging this winter.

Lake Gogebic Groomer’s Report:
All trails are in very good condition. Our groomers continue to groom each trail each day.
VERY IMPORTANT: Watch for the reroute where trails 1, 102 and 8 West meet, north of Merriweather going west for about 5 miles. Watch for changes and signs. YOU CANNOT USE THIS AREA FOR ANY RIDING. This reroute will continue to the end of the season. You may also want to top off your gas if headed north through this area as the reroute will add an extra ten miles (there and back) to your trip with no gas stops between Lake Gogebic and Konteka.

The Watersmeet Groomer’s report:
Our groomers are running daily and trails are all groomed. All trails are in good condition but use caution on corners they are icy. We did get about 4″ of new snow which helped some.
Please follow the orange barrels and stay on trail going across Cisco Chain.

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.
