Keweenaw Peninsula Trail Report – 12/01

KEWEENAW PENINSULA UPDATE via Keweenaw Snowmobile Club —

Today is the day! Unfortunately, we have not received the snow that other areas have. There is not enough snow to groom without excessive equipment wear. ⚠️ RIDE WITH CAUTION ⚠️ You will encounter closed gates, water across the trail in several areas, tree limbs down and generally VERY early season riding conditions. Keep the snow dances going and we will update when we are able to begin grooming. Reminder that currently Trail 122 is closed as well as Trail 132W and Trail 3 has a section that is shared with logging traffic. Trail 133 is also closed due to deer hunting and water areas not frozen, we will update when it’s available for use. Picture of Trail 3 in Mohawk.

KEWEENAW PENINSULA UPDATE via Keweenaw Snowmobile Club –>

KEWEENAW PENINSULA UPDATE via Keweenaw Trail Reports >> Chasing snow has definitely been the norm this season and you had to be ready to leave with a moments notice. We can all hope next year will be nothing like this year!
‘Snownlyfans’ decided yesterday to chase some snow himself, from Sebewaing to Mass City - an 8 hour drive! After arriving last night at Adventure Motel, Snownlyfans got started early this morning and rode from Mass City to Houghton, Houghton to Sidnaw and back to Mass City! He already has 195 miles on today. Snownlyfans shared some photos and comments on riding. He said, “Can’t tell you his much snow I was pushing with my bumper from Mass City to Krupp's Mini Mart, but it’s DEEP! Continued up to the South Range Pub, but it was closed 😩 Rode up to Houghton and then back south. Tried to ride into Sidnaw but unfortunately some of the trail was plowed. Oh well…..195 mile day!”
Thanks for sharing Snownlyfans! Glad you were able to get some throttle therapy in!
Note: please see posts from earlier today detailing information for riders and other reports from riders! #keweenaw #snowphotos

KEWEENAW PENINSULA UPDATE via Krupps Resort >> Chris F. from Central WI came up for a quick ride yesterday! The last storm we got about 4” one day and 6” on the second day than yesterday was warmer temps and rain. That didn’t stop him tho for coming up to ride! He was able to get to town but said the sidewalks were plowed along the canal. Tho he couldn’t go past there he said he still had a great time! ❄️ Now today we’re are in yet another winter storm advisory supposed to to get a possible of 10-13” by tomorrow morning. Maybe we will hit 100” here in Twin Lakes yet! Wishing this was the start of winter not the end! Haha 🇺🇸⛄️❄️ www.kruppsresortmi.com #keweenaw #snowphotos ... See MoreSee Less

KEWEENAW PENINSULA UPDATE via Keweenaw Trail Reports >> Really feeling like today should be April 1 and a cruel April fools day joke being played…… cruel is the exact word for the way this winter has been, eh?
After receiving about a foot of fresh snow Sunday/Monday, Mike Rode and a few other groups took the trails to scratch that never ending itch this lack of winter has brought ….. they were not disappointed! After a great day Monday riding, Tuesday brought warm temps and rain and then last night temps dropped and changed to snow…… and now we are faced with another winter storm warning! 🙈 #keweenaw #snowphotos
