Sault Ste. Marie Trail Report – 02/12

SAULT STE. MARIE UPDATE via Sault Ste. Marie Snowmobile Association – 02/12

Just a quick snow update for those wanting to know. It’s coming down pretty good right now as it moves across Lake Superior. Isn’t supposed to amount to much, but the puddles around here are frozen again, so hopefully the ones on the trails are stating to freeze up too. Nice red sky this morning, so I was hoping that meant at least some snow.

We need a lot more to be able to make the trails rideable, but it’s a start. I show 2” on my gauge as of right now❄️❄️❄️

SAULT STE. MARIE AREA UPDATE via Sault Ste. Marie Snowmobile Association >> 1/21/26
Good morning! Bryan and his son Logan hit the city trails last night and also 49 down to 7 mile and they turned out great! The little streams behind Kewadin Casino are still flowing (see the video in the comments) even with all of the cold, but our bridges have made a huge difference in there! There is one spot along the Kewadin trail that is soft and we keep filling it in as best we can. Likely a nonissue for the weight of a sled, but worth mentioning.
Thank you Bryan and Logan!!❄️❄️❄️ #soo #soo0121b #snowphotos

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

Gaylord Area Trail Report – 02/12

Gaylord Bureau –

February 12, 2024 – 9:31 a.m.

Temperatures have been warmer than usual this month, which has melted most of our snow. Trails are unrideable at this time and there is little snow expected in the extended forecast. We’ll keep you posted on any changes with the weather. Check back for updates and trail conditions.

Please remember that groomers have the right of way and kindly move off the trail so they can safely proceed. If you approach a groomer from behind, the operator will signal when it’s safe for you to pass. Groomers are here to make your ride more enjoyable so please be courteous!

As always, check back with us for updates and weather reports.

Sledheads of Frederic – 02/12

This is the year winter didnt show. Coming at you from downtown Frederic on a 37 degree and cloudy monday. Seeing some slight predictions of a little snow later in the week but if we do get some I stick to the story that it needs to be a bunch and it will only be good for those first ones on it. On the other hand Side bys and atv.s were out a bit from what I hear. Pic below is Jason Mccune and his group riding the trails on their atv/s around Frederic this weekend. I was a bit more comfy in the sun down south and should have stayed there. I think I have a total of about 200 miles in for the season. I wish I had something better to say. Think snow and MO MO NAH CHEE CHEE NAH….maybe for next season. Thanks for checking in. Pete
