KEWEENAW PENINSULA UPDATE via Keweenaw Trail Reports – 02/01
Shawn James and crew spent the last 4 days in the Keweenaw and even though the trip started out with a sled problem, they were able to get it resolved and back to enjoying their trip! Shawn shared this group photo and these words….
“Just wanted to express my gratitude for the helpful individuals that make trips to Michigan’s Keweenaw Peninsula so great. After a long ride trailering machines to our destination near Copper Harbor, I experienced some secondary clutch issues within the first 8 miles of our ride Thursday night. Friday morning Houghton Powersports referred me over to Neil at Keweenaw Motorsports in Calumet. Neil happened to have a spare clutch and jack shaft for me. The price was more than fair and got me back on the trail for the rest of the weekend! Our group of nine guys sure appreciated the great trails and hospitality and enjoyed patronizing the few establishments that we could! Can’t wait to go back!”
We are SO glad your trip was great for you! Thank you for all of the kind words towards local establishments and people! Hope you make it back up soon!

KEWEENAW PENINSULA UPDATE via Western UP Trail Reports >> 10 February 2026 I'm being bombarded with questions about the warm up coming this weekend. So let me explain my honest but might not be accurate trail report Every year we get a warm up for a few days. Mid 30's and low 40's will definitely make it a little sloppy and most likely moguled up by Sunday. My guess is that we will pause grooming during this time and it's going to get rough. By Wednesday night into Thursday the temps will drop and we can possibly resume grooming but it'll take a couple day's to fix the mess. Keep in mind I ride in 40°-50° days most of April and the trails hold up pretty good. ☠️ Stretch Western UP Trail Reports Web Cam video.nest.com/live/4BKmS6XRiT#keweenaw #miweather10 February 2026 I'm being bombarded with questions about the warm up coming this weekend.

The warm up won't kill anything for trail riders, everyone has plenty of snow. Now off trail riders.....😩
🤣 3 ++ Feet !!!! YES I said Feet, of Base the only thing that will hurt it is riding on it. I know everyone can't just cancel because this is your 1 and only trip, but if you can hold of for a weekend and by next Thursday they will be Mint again. Ride Right and Sober!
