SAULT STE. MARIE UPDATE via Sault Ste. Marie Snowmobile Association – 03/02
3/2 update Good morning all! Yesterday’s warm up definitely took its toll on the trails. Most are down to gravel and mud now. 889 is the only trail that is fair, with some good spots still. I’m not sure how long it will hold. Folks that hit the forest service roads are reporting that those are holding up ok. When there’s anything new to report, I’ll be sure to update you!
Thank you for supporting our area businesses! We hope you enjoyed the ride the past couple of days!

SAULT STE. MARIE AREA UPDATE via Sault Ste. Marie Snowmobile Association >> 1/20/26 Good evening! Brimley Bill brought the Pisten Bully in to the Soo barn from Raco via trail 8 and groomed along the way. After 6”+ of new snow yesterday, the berms at the road crossings needed to be cleared. He did a great job and the trail is flat, wide, and beautiful tonight! The Bully is in for a thaw and an oil change and it’ll be back out to Raco tomorrow night. Thanks Bill! ❄️❄️❄️ #soo #soo0120b#snowphotos... See MoreSee Less

SAULT STE. MARIE UPDATE via Sault Ste. Marie Snowmobile Association – 03/01
3/1 Happy March! While we wish this beautiful snow would last, we know that the warm is coming today.
Here’s what I know-
49 from the Soo south of Alberta Lane to Gaines Hwy remains closed due to the beaver ponds.
8 from the Soo to Brimley and the city trails are very thin and rocky. Poor to fair in spots
49 and 494 south of Kinross are fair
472 west to 480 It’s thin but fair to good through there up to 480.
480 to 8 is fair out of the south, then excellent from Raco to 8. 8 east from Raco to Brimley is excellent the first 5 miles, then thin and rocky closer to Brimley.
889 is excellent except for one short stretch between Plantation and 8 that we couldn’t groom. Still fun to ride with lots of snow!! A tree is down on that part and easy to get around. From Laurie, groomer Warren’ wife this morning-
“Pics from this morning at the 889 and Tower Road junction. Trails are holding up this morning. Don’t know for how long. These taken at 9:50am”
He did an AMAZING job out there yesterday! Ride it while you can! Remember, the forest service trails will hold up longer, but are not groomed trails so alway use caution! ❄️❄️❄️
