Lake Gogebic Trail Report – 12/25
LAKE GOGEBIC AREA UPDATE via Gogebic Area Grooming – 12/24 First off, everyone from Gogebic Area Grooming would like to wish everyone a Merry Christmas! Trail updates for Gogebic Area Grooming 12-25-2020: Trail # 1 from Bergland to Whitepine This trail is has been packed and is not too bad of shape. Trail # 1 South towards Marenisco from Trail # 8 (Ethelwood Grade) This trail has been packed and also isn’t too bad of shape. HOWEVER, there is logging on the North end towards M-28 (turning off trail ). We ask you to travel the plowed portion very slow and with caution. All it’s going to take is one person to mess it up and we will have to close it to snowmobilers. Trail # 8 east from Bergland to Ewen This trail was packed and wasn’t too bad, just need more snow around the field areas near Ewen. Trail 102 from Bergland to Trail #11 This trail has been packed and is in alright condition. Few wet areas but not too bad. All passable. Trail # 13 North from Bergland to 101 This trail was packed as is in alright condition. Trail # 13 south from Bergland to Root Cellar This trail was packed and is in alright condition. Few wet areas but not too bad. All passable. Trail 13 south from Root Cellar to 100 This trail was packed and has a few wet spots! All passable Trail #13 south from 100 to Trail # 2 This trail was ran by the groomer to open it up, but hasn’t been packed since the new snow fall. We might have issue with this trail soon with logging. We will keep you posted on this trail. This trail is finally open to the original trail, and has very little east shore riding now. Trail has been packed as well, with a few wet spot. All passable. Watch for rocks sticking up west of the Gogebic County park. So the question is always asked! “Can I ride yet”. Well the answer is, yes at your own risk. If you want to ride, go for it. If you want to have just even a good trails, wait for one more storm. Diehards always break trail first and have fun doing it, but it’s not for everyone. Snow is still on its way very soon! Have a Merry Christmas And a big thanks goes out to our guys that have been working Christmas Eve and Christmas Day🎁🎄. <> <> Lake Gogebic Area Chamber of Commerce – <> Lake Gogebic Area Chamber of Commerce on Facebook – <> WEATHER UPDATE via US National Weather Service Marquette Michigan >> Tonight through Sunday, light showers hang around as temperatures remain around the freezing mark.

Some dry weather is then expected Monday ahead of the next system towards the midweek period next week. WEATHER UPDATE via US National Weather Service Marquette Michigan >> A pair of systems will bring a wintry mix of precipitation to the U.P. today into tonight. A clipper will spread a mix of rain, snow, and freezing rain across the area this morning, changing to all rain from west to east as temperatures climb above freezing in the afternoon, reaching as high as the mid 50s in the west. A cold front then drops across the U.P. and brings another round of mixed precip tonight, changing to all snow towards Sunday morning. Generally expect minimal snow amounts across most of the U.P., but some spots in the Keweenaw and the east could pick up 1-3” through Sunday morning. A glaze of ice will also be possible in a few spots this morning and again tonight. #miweather #keweenaw #westernup #marquette #munising #seney #newberry #soo #straitsareaA pair of systems will bring a wintry mix of precipitation to the U.P. today into tonight.

We finally got some snow!!! We have been running the trails with the pan and filling in the swamps with snow. We ask all of you that do come up to use caution when riding as this is the very beginning of riding. The trail conditions can change daily until we get more snow.
Around the town of Bergland:
*Use caution when traveling* A lot of swamps are frozen but we pushed snow to get across them. Travel slow when coming into town.
Trail # 1 south from Marenisco to Wisconsin Border
This trail has been packed as well and isn’t too bad for condition. Be careful of rocks that are sticking up from the trails as there is always less snow towards Wisconsin.
Trail # 8 from Bergland to Wakefield.
We didn’t touch this trail yet with a groomer. Wouldn’t use this trail until we get more snow to cover the swamps and for us to make snow bridges. If your going to or from Ironwood way, use Marenisco then travel trail 1 or 13.
Trail # 100 south end of Lake Gogebic
If you haven’t join our club yet, please do so.! We sure do appreciate it and also need it to make this possible. Postings From Regional Pages On Facebook
We finished our ride yesterday on Trail 137 to Trail 13 to 101 to 12 back to White Pine. The snow had turned to mashed potatoes but trails for the most part were smooth and holding up well.
There are bare spots, standing water, running water, deteriorating snow bridges, and any roadside trail is bare, pretty typical late season riding.
Friday should still be a good day for riding.
Due to high temps we have halted all grooming operations.
Will go back out Sunday to assess the damage Ma Nature is causing.
Ride the 906. #ontonagon #westernup #snowphotosTrail Report 3/20:

Today marks the first official day of spring — and that means longer daylight hours on the trails.
There’s still time to get out and ride before the season ends.
If you’re heading out:
✔ Ride Right
✔ Lead Right
✔ Respect the trails and landowners
And remember — the groomer always has the right of way.
Enjoy the longer days and make the most of the remaining riding season! ❄️

Art just rode 142 miles across the Ontonagon trail system and called it “the best March riding he’s seen in 20 years.” ❄️🔥
The trails are in incredible shape, and this late-season snow has everything dialed in—smooth, fast, and just plain fun. If you’ve been waiting for the right time to ride… this is it.
It’s not too late for one last trip. Come on up and make it count. 🏁 #ontonagon #westernup #snowphotos
🛷 Thursday, March 19th: Clouds, then bright blue sky… 🌥️☀️
🛷 Have patience as the season winds down. Some places are awesome; others are wind-swept.
🛷 These photos are from 11 am. At 3 pm, it’s now blue sky.
🛷 Tomorrow/Friday calls for 46 degrees and rain. 🌧️
❄️ Sunday? Possibly 3” of fresh snow. It is what it is… winter and spring are co-mingling! #lakegogebic #westernup #snowphotos
