Lake Gogebic Trail Report – 02/22

LAKE GOGEBIC AREA UPDATE via Gogebic Area Grooming – 02/22

The Lake Gogebic Area has received 6-8” of new snow over the past 2-3 days and it has really helped out tremendously on our trails. The new snow mixed with what we had, and it set up nicely with the cold temperatures at night. Trails in the Lake Gogebic Area reported to be in good to very good condition and groomer Dave has reported that the South end of the Lake and Marenisco are in excellent condition! We are forecasted to receive about 8” over the next 36 hours and if that happens groomers will be out in force to get all the trails set but then we should be in excellent condition!

The only challenge area is the corridor above Timberline Sports which receives the most traffic as it is a connector to major trails. New snow will certainly help that corridor out!

Here’s the skinny from our groomers:

• Trail 102: was groomed this morning!
• Trail 8 west – will have a groomer going down tonight and they will check to see what utility company has got accomplished and will report tomorrow on status that that trail opening.
• Trail 8 East: will be groomed tonight.
• 13 North: will be groomed tonight.
• 1 south – grooming today and will also be grooming the ditch line.

So far this season we have received over 170” of snow – and winter is far from over! Come on us and ride – we’ve got the best conditions around! Thanks to all of you who visit and support our area and our businesses, and thanks to all who work hard to make the Lake Gogebic Area one of the very best snowmobile destinations in the country!

Jordan Valley Trail Report – 02/22

Trails.Snow.Grooming update

We’ve received 4-6” recently and slated to get 6-12” more depending on the weather person you believe. At this point we plan to groom tomorrow (Thursday) and access from there. Reminder we’ve had a lot of melt and rain. You may encounter some soft spots and lots of ice under the snow, adjust your riding to the conditions. The little bit of recon we’ve done in the past week trails before this snow had 0-4” depending where you are on the trail system and a lot of rough frozen ice due to the terrain. Stay tuned for more updates through the weekend. It’s going to take a good amount of snow to bring trails back into shape but our volunteers will do what they can. We need more than 12” of fluffy Lake effect to get trails in decent shape, but they will be rideable while it lasts.

Have a safe weekend. Ride right, ride safe and ride sober
