IRONWOOD / WESTERN U.P. UPDATE via Gogebic Range Trail Authority – ORV & Snowmobile Club – 01/13
All trails are being groomed regularly. Traffic is very high and so are temps, expect bumpy afternoons. Get out early. Trails remain in good to very good condition. Trails will be soft around towns. Stop sign enforcement, loud exhaust enforcement, speed enforcement all occurring this weekend. Road route speed limits are the same as vehicles (don’t ever pass a car!). Please respect our neighbors and don’t drive like hell through our little slice of heaven. Ryan Christian did 11s last night and trail 8 the night before. Join us Saturday for the best damn 50th Anniversary Celebration & Fundraiser ever! Support your trails and YOUR all volunteer club!
ONTONAGON AREA UPDATE via North Country Snowmobile Club UP >> Mother Nature gave us another week! Thank you Groomer Jay and Tractor Mac. We groomed our entire system except Trail #12 from Trail #137 to Greenland, which was groomed the night before. All trails are fair to very good, it's Spring riding conditions with some standing water and reduced/failing snow bridges. The snow bridges along LP Walsh Rd. are narrow. The snow bridge between South Boundary Road and The Porkies Ski Hill has running water and is failing but passable, please use caution when riding. Ride the 906!! #ontonagon #westernup#snowphotos...
