As of 12/13/17, the Keweenaw Peninsula has 17″ of snow on the ground and has received a total of 73.5″ of snow for the season.
Snowmobile trails from Twin Lakes to Copper Harbor are officially open but are in early season condition. Some groomers are out opening trails and clearing hazards. More snow is needed.
Any trail usage should be done with extreme caution as there is low snow cover, rocks, branches, wet areas and hazards that have not been identified.
The Portage lift Bridge will not be open for snowmobile traffic before December 16th. We will post when it is open.
Trail 124, 132W and 133 are temporarily closed for logging.
Remember when you’re out on the trails to watch out for the groomers. They have the right away.
Good afternoon Kruppers-
Bla bla bla another 3.3” of the white gold here in the backyard!
Cold temps and snow=fun on the snowmachines eh?
Not sure when we will see the sun again? Maybe April! Ha ha
Things are looking up I would say!
Still a lot of wet holes out there but they are going to freeze up soon hopefully!
I’m sure you all have seen quite a few pics on FB of sunk sleds so be carful out there!
Humps are still stumps and the low spots are pretty deep pools of water!
Pretty soon the bumps will be JUMPS! So be patient out there!
Have a great night!
Kruppy thanks you for all the support!
