Sault Ste. Marie Trail Report – 01/18
SAULT STE. MARIE UPDATE via Sault Ste. Marie Snowmobile Association – 01/17 Good morning all! No grooming last night or today due to warm temps and rain…. boo👎🏼 Later in the week, it appears we will finally get some measurable snow and cold temps again. What a roller coaster. Be safe if you do head out riding. There will be some slush, water spots, and water holes in the normal trouble spots that we have been mentioning all season. Trails were holding up really well yesterday morning still. I’ll update once we start moving again. Appears all clubs around us are in the same predicament. Hope you all had a nice weekend and an even better one ahead! 🤞🥶❄️ <> <> Sault Ste. Marie Snowmobile Association Facebook Page <> Sault Ste.

Good evening!
Here in the Soo, the blizzard is winding down. For us, it wasn’t so much the snow as it was the wind. I still only show about a foot total new snow out of this storm from 10 AM yesterday until now, but the drifts are nuts.
A few of us took a ride to Bay Mills Resort & Casino for dinner and to check out trail 8. Thank you to Zoey for the great service!!
We opted to take the shoulder of 6 mile from Deland to the resort as we know that the farm field drifts on 8 west of Brimley are likely very deep and visibility was poor when we got out there. The bay was nearly impossible to see as well.
Trail 8 from the Soo to Brimley is tunneled in spots due to people riding the middle to avoid the drifts. I personally lover smashing the drifts so I was in heaven on the outer edges😅
Surprisingly, we saw no downed trees or branches, which is pretty incredible!
I’m hearing that groomers will likely roll out tomorrow morning on the first runs since the storm started.
Hopefully, most businesses will be able reopen tomorrow, and we’ll get back to normal in short order.
We will keep you posted! Hope you all got through this unscathed! ❄️❄️❄️ #soo #soo0316e #snowphotos
Good morning all!
Here in the Soo at my place right off of trail 8, we’ve only received 8” or so of snow from this storm since 10 AM yesterday. Snow is ongoing, so we’ll see any we end up with.
The wind and the drifting are the bigger story, at least here. I know that areas just south and west received more snow.
Please check in with what you’re seeing and where you are at so that we have an idea how much snow is out there in our surrounding areas.
Power has stayed on here, thankfully, but MANY businesses are closed as it’s unsafe for their staff to travel.
I am certain there are downed trees on the trails. We are not advising going out, but if you do, be safe and please let us know what you’re seeing.
Thank you! #soo #soo0316d #snowphotos
Only around 8” of new snow today in the Soo. Word is we’ll get more tomorrow than today.
For once, we’re ok with being on the lower end of the totals. That’s easier on our first responders, our community, and our volunteers which means we can work on clean up sooner.
We’ll see what happens tomorrow! As always, be safe! #soo #soo0316 #snowphotos3/16/26
