Got in the 40’s here yesterday, made the trails a bit soft, but otherwise held up pretty good, trail 12 going east out of Ontonagon has been ruff cause we had a groomer down, but should be groomed tonight. suppose to be cold with a little snow next few days, so trails will be good, by the weekend its suppose to start warming a bit, hopefully not to warm, can’t groom unless it’s under 32 degrees. we still have 2-3 feet of snow on the ground. Remember if there’s good snow by you there’s a lot more here and fewer riders , WE still have lots of lodging available , including our lakefront chalets, and 3 bd. rm suite, all sleep up to 8 , we are located right on trail#12 , and just a mile from food and gas .Stay where the groomer lives!!

Bad news for this upcoming President’s weekend; 40’s for highs from Friday thru Tuesday the 21st.
The only good news is we’re expecting temps to be around normal from Tuesday thru Thursday with chances of some lake effect snow. Nighttime grooming should still be possible (hopefully) thru most of the week with possibly some daytime grooming for a couple of days midweek. Hopefully that will get the trails set up enough to get us thru the next warm spell.
That said, expect wet holes to reopen, again, over much of our trail system. Please stay away from any rivers or streams entering Lake Gogebic and surrounding areas.
I took a walk down the road from the Hoop to the Merriweather bridge and there’s actually open water under the bridge right now!
I can only imagine that it will open up even more over this upcoming weekend. This most likely goes for any rivers or creeks in the area along with swampy areas. If you still plan on coming up contact a Forest Service office in the area for maps to all UNPLOWED, only, Forest Service roads that you can ride. There is an office in Watersmeet, between Ironwood & Bessemer and also in Ontonagon. And hey, why not bring a fishing pole along and try a day of ice fishing on this upcoming free fishing weekend? You’ll be able to relax and work on your tan – in the middle of February! How often can you say you did that in the U.P. in the middle of February? I’m not going to even comment of upcoming weather past this weekend at this time – I’m crossing my fingers that winter comes to stay at some point. Posted by Carolyn at the Hoop
