Ironwood Trail Report – 03/02
IRONWOOD / WESTERN U.P. UPDATE via Gogebic Range Trail Authority – ORV & Snowmobile Club – 03/02 Groomers were out ALL Sunday night and into Monday grooming all GRTA trails to remarkably good condition. Trails are rated good to very good with fair sections. We are not grooming again until tomorrow night. We are decommissioning T7 groomer to have our Diamond Mowers installed on it with added retrofits for increased greasing. We will be out all Wednesday night and Thursday night grooming in hopes of giving you’se guyses another weekend of good riding. Our trails are flat and sassy and white again…come ride! They will deteriorate as we move through the week, but we do have faith the trails will be 100% better this Saturday as compared to last. The amount of drifting from today’s crazy wind added much more snow to east/west sections. All good things! <> Report via Gogebic Range Trail Authority Website <> Report via Gogebic Range Trail Authority on Facebook <> WEATHER UPDATE via US National Weather Service Marquette Michigan >> Tonight, isolated to scattered rain showers are expected across the south and east, with maybe a few thunderstorms across the south.

I took a trip to Rhinelander and got a few pics of the trails along the way. There's no snow in Rhinelander and very little in Eagle River. Watersmeet looks bad and doesn't start looking good until Mass City.
