Groomer Report

February 7th, 2021

Hooray !!! We Finally have snow to work with. This last system, along with daily lake effect snow has piled up nicely, giving us plenty to work with. Things seem to be holding good as the far as keeping it around. The arctic air is steadily holding over the area. This is forecast for the next 10 days or so. Dress warm and come enjoy the beautiful scenery.

Ride Safe, Stay Right & Have Fun!!!

Groomer Mike CWP

Michigan Snowmobile Trail Report

WEATHER UPDATE via Michigan Storm Chasers >> Here is our last call for ongoing system snow and lake effect snow from now through Sunday evening at 6 pm EST, December 20th & 21st, 2025.
Uncertainty exists primarily in our trace-1" category which extends from Frankfort and Alpena south to I-96/I-69. The clipper moving through today may produce a quick squall of rain & snow with minimal accumulation some time beyond 1 pm EST, but models haven't determined if this band will solidify or not. If it does, the chance for a rain/snow mix exists in areas highlighted in the pink dashed box. This rain/snow mix would only be today. Any snow on Sunday will be lake effect off of Lake Superior, hence why our highest totals of 4-8" are located east of Munising over to Paradise. Not too impactful of a system in terms of Michigander standards, but do take it slow if you encounter any snow squalls and/or visibly slick roads. #miweather #keweenaw #westernup #marquette #munising #seney #newberry #soo #straitsarea #gaylord #cadillac #benzie #traversecity #petoskeyHere is our last call for ongoing system snow and lake effect snow from now through Sunday evening at 6 pm EST, December 20th & 21st, 2025.

Keweenaw Peninsula Trail Report – 02/10

KEWEENAW PENINSULA UPDATE via Keweenaw Trail Reports – 02/10

It has now been an entire week of pretty much non stop snowfall and being under winter weather advisories….and today is no different!

Adam Garvey has really been able to enjoy the fresh white gold and shared these photos and review of the trails he rode today. Adam said, “Trail 134, Trail 132, Trail 130 and Trail 3 from Phoenix, north are all decent today(mainly good). High rock trail is real rough, looks like it hasn’t been groomed in a while, very bumpy ride out to the end of the world.”

So glad you enjoyed another day of riding, Adam. I believe the club is still dealing with grooming machines needing repairs and I assume this is why High Rock Trail has not gotten the needed attention. Hopefully parts will come in and machines can get back out there. I know all of these guys are working tirelessly to make that happen!

Matt Protasiewicz and crew are having an epic time riding Michigan’s Keweenaw Peninsula this week!

Matt shared these photos and review of trails.

Matt said, “ awesome day riding! Only trails we didn’t hit were 122 and 124. Trail 130 had 8 inches of fresh snow on top of the groom trail, which was pretty fun to ride on. Trail three up to Brockway Mountain was in great shape, as was the trail 134 and trail 135 out of Copper Harbor, Michigan! Trail 132 was also in great shape. The lobster 🦞 pizza at Eagle Harbor Inn
was excellent. Great club up here! Is there a way to donate or join?”

Thank you so much for taking the time to send us your photos and comments Matt! Yes, there is most definitely a way to donate and/or join the club! You can head over to www.keweenawsnowmobileclub.com for information on joining the club online, purchasing 50/50 raffle fundraiser and the GoFundMe campaign for raising money that is desperately needed for building a new groomer barn!
Thanks again to Matt and everyone that wants to show their appreciation for ALL that the Groomer Operators and Keweenaw Snowmobile Club do!

If you haven’t already joined the club, please consider doing so!
