Keweenaw Peninsula Trail Report – 12/26
KEWEENAW PENINSULA UPDATE via Western & Southern UP Trail Reports – 12/26
Thought I’d give everyone some added trail info from todays grooming. From Mohawk to Dollar Bay is in pretty good condition with some thin spots closer to Mohawk. Trail 3 from the bridge to Dollar Bay is thin but rideable. Going north our guys said they pretty much ran out of snow in Copper Harbor but for the most part the trail was fair. Keep in mind this is early season and we need more snow. Good thing most all of the water holes have frooze up but still be careful when runing in those low spots. As of right now our plan is to get my machine across the bridge on Monday so Charlie and I can start running Toivola to Houghton.
