March 9, 2017

21 degrees this morning, cloudy and breezy. It was snowing pretty hard yesterday morning, and blowing pretty hard too. We picked up about 3 inches in a couple of hours then it petered out pretty fast. It blowed so hard I didn`t even have to shovel off my deck. ‘They’ are still saying highs in the teens and lows in the single digits thru the weekend and snow here an there. Not saying alot of snow, 3-6 inches, but we`ll take what we can get!!! Now on to the trails……

I covered Pine Stump in yesterdays report…still the same there. We probably won`t run that again till Friday or Saturday….depends on the traffic. We haven`t been out on the Falls trail since the rain the other day, we are gonna hit that today to see whats UP with that, so I`ll have more info tomorrow morning, but it should be fair to good. I`ve said it before, we are done with trail #8 south of town, its just too far gone and under water. Did talk to Groomer Mike after his late night run on the Point Trails last night to take care of downed trees. He called the trail in decent shape. At this point I want to make a point. All trails are HARD and ICEY. They are ridable but expect the dirt roads that are plowed to be frozen mud and the main roads to be bare. I am getting so many calls asking if its worth coming UP, MAN, it depends what you are looking for. I`ll say it again….they are ridable but HARD and ICEY.

OK, now on to some kudos. Groomer Mike had a long day yesterday, running his business and the power was out for more than 24 hours. After everything got back to about normal, he and his wife Jo jumped in a groomer and took off for the Point Trails to clear downed trees. He didn`t get home till after midnight. Anyways, while out there, he noticed that a couple of snowmobiliers had cleared ALL the small trees that they could…and there was a bunch of them!!!! This saved him and his wife a couple hours. THANK YOU……THANK YOU…..THANK YOU!!!! I wish there was more like you to stop to pick up a branch or small tree off the trail. If you fess up and let me know who you are I will GLADLY buy you a beer, or a cup of coffee, or heck, even supper!!!! Dats it fer today.

Groomer Chris

Good morning Kruppers
Well we lost power at 2am and all the cams are down!
I was able to pull up the cam for MIDot up by Jim & Debs Kruppsmart and as you can see we have snow again!
Nothing big but things are white again!
Let hope it keeps coming!
Forecast isn’t calling for much any helps!
4-8′ is in Sunday’s forecast so that could help if it happens!
Real windy out there!
Have a great day

This is the Keweenaw Snowmobile Trail System Report for Tuesday, March 8, 2017.

Snowmobile trails from Twin Lakes to Copper Harbor are open and trails are in fair to good condition. The groomers are out.

We are unable to groom on Trail #3 between the Portage Lift Bridge and South Range due to extremely low snow cover. Trails south of South Range to Twin Lakes are still being groomed.

All of trail #122 is closed for logging.

Remember when you’re out on the trails to watch out for the groomers. They have the right away. Use caution around logging areas.

The Keweenaw Convention & Visitors Bureau asks that you stay on the trails, STAY OFF THE ICE, respect private property, do not drink and drive, and above all else, drive safely. The signs on the trails are there for riders’ safety so please DO NOT remove or destroy them.
