It finally looks like winter we are expected to get two to four inches of snow today. If it keeps on snowing the way it is right now we will have no problem getting the 4 inches they are calling for. Snow showers in the forecast for the next several days. Temps will be in mid 20’s Friday and Saturday, and single digits Sunday and Monday.

The Gogebic Range Trail Authority report the groomers have been taken off the trails until we get more snow. Expect bare spots and icy corners and poor conditions.

The Lake Gogebic groomers report: They have received approximately 4 inches of snow with snow in the forecast for the next week. Temps for the most part will be very cold. Groomers are expected to go out today conditions permitting. Expect icy corners and bare spots.

The Watersmeet groomers have not gone out yet, they need more snow. There is very little to no base. They are biting at the bit to go out and groom.

All areas need more snow….keep in mind groomers can be out day or night so watch out for them and please pull over or slow down and wait for the operator to signal you by.

Please be careful on corners as you know several Michigan Trail signs have been discontinued. These signs are posted on our trail map. PLEASE BE SAFE!!!!
