St. Ignace Trail Report – Straits Area Snowmobile Club – 01/24
Just a quick update and I will do more later. Over the last couple of days we received over a foot of new snow. Non of it is really packy, some sugar, some light, some just strange. Groomers are running, and there are zero problems in the trails, all rated very good condition. The concern now is to get it all packed down, as it seems like loose snow. The smooth trails may get bumpy with use until we can get it all packed and froze down. Temps this weekend are going to go back down to single digits. Be aware that if the temps drop to -10s, I will cancel groomer runs to same people and equipment, but other than that we should be running every day. Be safe, be courteous, and if you see a groomer get out of his way please. <> KEWEENAW PENINSULA UPDATE via Western UP Trail Reports >> 05 April 2026 Are the trails still open as of now?
