KEWEENAW PENINSULA UPDATE via Keweenaw Trail Reports​ – 3/20

From snowy, whiteout like conditions to start the day all the way to beautiful bluebird skies for the second half of the day – it couldn’t have been a more perfect day to be riding Michigan’s Keweenaw Peninsula!

Trails were absolutely perfect!

Snow,snow and more snow! It’s a great day to be socially distancing yourself behind the bars of your sled.

Trail Boss, Buzzy gave this update this morning “Keweenaw got some new snow for the last sledders out there. Three groomers on the trails between high rock and toivola Should be good sledding. On a lighter note, groomer no. 2 operator had an early morning eye opening experience upon putting his lunch in the passenger side seat. He had a passenger waiting for him in the form of a raccoon!! Seems like his guest climbed thru the open drivers window to help himself to some potato chips. That will wake you up! If your going for a sled ride, follow the new rules of social distancing and Holler loud so your friends can hear you.”

Enjoy it while you still can!
