Munising Area Trail Report – 02/15

TRAIL REPORT, Wednesday, February 15, 2023 8:00 a.m.

VERY WET CONDITIONS!

Dang, mid 40’s yesterday with almost a half inch of rain falling through the night and still coming down. Overall trails are in a fair condition. Watch for flooding and standing water through the whole trail system, especially Trail 418. From just East of AuTrain West to Trail 417 South the base is gone and gravely. We will be watching closely as rain changes to snow and temperatures fall.

Grooming will start as soon as possible with what is left and hopefully clean up this mess. Keep a close eye on trail conditions as you ride and stay right. Stay tuned for updates! (picture with standing water is from early yesterday morning)

Today’s Trail Report brought to you by: The Timber Ridge Inn, Munising, MI https://thetimberridgeinn.com/

MUNISING AREA UPDATE via TNT Trenary Northern Trails – 2/15

Well with the lovely rain we got overnight, things are not looking very good. Grooming is on hold to let everything freeze back up. Anywhere that holds water, will need time to freeze back up before we run over it with a heavy groomer. We are hoping to try grooming again tomorrow night. Then we will have more to tell you all. Wish we had something better to report. Ride right, ride safe.

Ironwood – Western U.P. Trail Report – 02/15

IRONWOOD / WESTERN U.P. UPDATE via Gogebic Range Trail Authority – ORV & Snowmobile Club – 02/15

Stay home, now we definitely need snow before we can even think putting a groomer on the trail. Mother nature really put the screws to us by raining all night and not turning into snow. Sorry I have to say that but it’s for the good of the trail and a bit of a sleds.

UPDATE:
It’s snowing right now, heavy wet snow again. We will need the temperature to drop and tighten it up. Patience my friends, patience. Only time will tell us on when and what to do with the trails. First thing is safety first for all.

ONTONAGON AREA UPDATE via Scott's Superior Inn and Cabins >> ❄️ Ontonagon / Porcupine Mountains Trail Report ❄️
I went for a ride after all the fresh POW piled up on us this weekend, and WOW — these trails are absolutely fantastic right now.
We picked up about a foot of light, fluffy snow over the weekend, and Mother Nature isn’t done yet. Another 6–10 inches is falling today, adding to an already solid base. The cold weather is hanging on, and with steady lake-effect snow expected throughout the week, conditions are shaping up beautifully across the western U.P.
Trails are smooth, well-covered, and riding great — this is the kind of snow we wait all season for. If you’ve been thinking about making a trip, now is the time. The Western U.P. is definitely the place to be right now.
🏁 Riding the Ontonagon & Porkies area? Make it easy on yourself and stay right on the trail at Scott’s Superior Inn & Cabins — warm rooms, sled-friendly parking, and Lake Superior views when you’re done riding. Come ride hard, then relax with us! 🏁 #ontonagon #westernup #snowphotos❄️ Ontonagon / Porcupine Mountains Trail Report ❄️
