Keweenaw Peninsula Trail Report – 01/29

KEWEENAW PENINSULA UPDATE via Keweenaw Snowmobile Club – 01/29

Shaping up nicely! Trail 122 is only open from Lake Linden to Sawmill Road (logging – please respect this closure). Trail 133 is still wet in many areas, with the cold snap we’re hoping to get out there this week but do not want to risk burying equipment. Think snow and ride right!

KEWEENAW PENINSULA UPDATE via Keweenaw Trail Reports – 01/29

W🤩W! Just W🤩W!
What a trip Greg Schmidt took from Minoqua Wi to Copper Harbor, Michigan.
L👀K at these beautiful photos from a partial blue sky day on Brockway Mountain.
Greg shared the details of his trip with us, “…..here are some pictures from our awesome ride to the Keweenaw! We started our ride in Minocqua, WI and headed up Wednesday, January 26th. Stayed at Hackman’s Hollow in Twin Lakes which was very convenient being right across the street from a restaurant. The views and trail all the way up on trail 3 to Houghton were spectacular! As we got through Houghton we headed up on trail 17/3 on smooth trails in Calumet and then took 134 out to the High Rock trail. Decided to try to head out to High Rock but about a mile into it turned around due to the high moguls. I was surprised by the amount of snow. Prior to heading up the reports I heard was there is no snow going out to High Rock but it sure looked like they had plenty. Anyways back to the report…😁 We headed into Copper Harbor on 134 and that was smooth as silk! We headed into Copper Harbor and then started up Brockway Mountain and man the views were like driving into a Bob Ross painting! Got to the top and took in all the spectacular views! After taking some memory making pictures we headed back down and stopped at another lookout overlooking Copper Harbor and Lake Superior. After getting gas at the Copper Harbor Fuel Stop, we stopped to eat at The Mariner North for lunch which was OUTSTANDING! Heading back we headed down 134 to 3 and took 124 out to Gay. Trail 124 was so good we headed back out that way as well. Once we got back on 3 south to Houghton the trails started to get a little rough but what do you expect after a full day of riding? Topped gas off in Houghton before heading back to Twin Lakes. Made it back to Minocqua Friday afternoon. 530 memorable miles and we will BE BACK! 😁”
What an amazing trip, Greg! Thank you SO much for sharing the many details of your trip and the beautiful photos!!

Cadillac Area Trail Report – 01/28

CADILLAC AREA UPDATE via Coyote Crossing Resort – 1/28

• Have gotten many comments today from sledders at Coyote who are pleasantly surprised by how decent the trails are; and they’re glad to be riding!
• Pete’s Friday trail report: Hello- Rode about 34 miles last night around Coyote, Caberfae and Crossroads. I groomed Coyote trail and "cut-off" trail out to Trail 37. I was mainly doing damage control to repair bad/dangerous ruts that came from wheeled vehicles during the thaw. Groomers will go out once and hit most everything today/tonight. Surprisingly there was a small/hard base still intact in most places.. I was not seeing snirt. Things are certainly not great, but with some smoothing out and the 4-6" we got, things are rideable. Some snow tonight is forecasted along with chance of some Lake Effect. THINK SNOW, Ride Right and Be Safe. Pete

WEATHER UPDATE via US National Weather Service Gaylord Michigan >> Feb 4, 2026, 3am…Nuisance flurries hang on today, but the clipper parade returns starting Thursday, with a reinforcing shot of arctic air Friday that will result in some travel impacts as temperatures fall from near freezing early to the teens by afternoon with more snow showers and blustery conditions. Colder Saturday, with a few flurries around again, and then, you guessed it, more snow chances going into early next week…though signals point toward a warming trend during this period as well. #miweather #gaylord #cadillac #benzie #traversecity #petoskeyFeb 4, 2026, 3am…Nuisance flurries hang on today, but the clipper parade returns starting Thursday, with a reinforcing shot of arctic air Friday that will result in some travel impacts as temperatures fall from near freezing early to the teens by afternoon with more snow showers and blustery conditions.
