Ironwood Trail Report – Gogebic Range Trail Authority – 02/11
The snow depth is reaching levels that we haven’t seen since 2015. If you have not made plans to come north and ride our scenic trails you are missing out! The entire GRTA trail system is rated excellent. Groomers ran nearly nonstop this weekend. With more snow this week and good temps forecast, trail riding will be going on for a long time! Off trail snow depth is 30"-40", be sure to KNOW BEFORE YOU GO. If you don’t KNOW you can ride off trail, don’t follow tracks! Do your homework! Stay with our sponsor AmericInn Hotel Ironwood MI !! <> Report via Gogebic Range Trail Authority Website <> Report via Gogebic Range Trail Authority on Facebook <> Visit Gogebic Range Trail Authority Website >>>> <> Thank you to all the landowners, volunteers, and our great community for the amazing support at our event last night!

Moonshine Riders Just want to say thank you Steve 'wfo' Hamilton and Jerry Nezworski.
I was extremely honored to have accepted this great gift. I think all of our volunteers do what they can for this great club. Being a little (okay a lot) choked up as you were presenting this to me, no words were able to be spoken at the presentation.
Thank you again guys. Thank you ALL!! Good work Looking for something to do tomorrow before our 45th Anniversary Land Owner Banquet & Fundraiser at the Wakefield VFW Post 9084? Go see our sponsors at Blackjack Mountain - Big Snow Resort for some awesome racing! Can watch most races from the Loggers Lounge bar/restaurant! Banquet is tomorrow at 5-9!Good Morning from BIG SNOW! Air Choice one has donated two round trip tickets (Value $165) that will be given away at the Banquet on Saturday. With daily flights out of Ironwood - you could win a ticket to get out of this cold! These are just two of the great prizes donated by our local area businesses that you could win on Saturday Way to go MI-TRALE and Linda! Her and her husband run Running Bear Resort in Paulding. They are tremendous assets to our local trail riding community!!ONTONAGON - Michigan Trails and Recreation Alliance of Land and the Environment received a grant for $363,630 to complete upcoming trail projects near Bergland. Linda Schulz, secretary and special project coordinator for MI-TRALE, said the money will be used to replace an "old iron beam bridge" that collapsed in 2013 and a couple other projects scheduled for 2019. MI-TRALE has been applying for grants to repair the bridge ever since it became unusable in 2013. The Bridge is located East of Bergland on the West Branch of the Ontonagon River, the new bridge will connect the Pioneer Trail to the south bound route. It will eliminate a couple miles of road and highway travel for trail users. The bridge will also enable trail users to stay on public land. The approximately $250,000 project makes use of funds originating from license and permit fees received in Michigan. Coleman Engineering Company in Ironwood along with MI-TRALE are managing the project. Great work folks. Is this a potential sled trail as well? Thank you for your hard work advancing our sport for us and future generations!!!! This is BIG Great news!! See you Saturday! Please help us raise funds for ORV trails and celebrate 45 years of GRTA!! 45th Anniversary Land Owner Banquet & Fundraiser <> Visit Gogebic Range Trail Authority Website >>>> <> Latest Trail Reports – Quick Links <>
