Greenland – Keweenaw Peninsula Trail Report – 12/03

Groomer Update:Todd Warner

“Good Morning Everyone”. Last night I groomed trail 13 out of Greenland west to Rockland. My turnaround is the trail 121 juncture which is the railroad grade leading into Ontanogon. I left the groomer barn at 2:30 am. The temperature was 20 degrees and it did not snow during my 4 hour run.

As expected, there are wet spots with the largest spot depicted in the picture. Snow is thin from the Rockland turnoff to Highway 45 which is about a mile in length. There are also stretches of the trail which groomed up very nicely too. Hoping the colder temps later in the week and the projected snow for Wednesday come to fruition.

For those of you out riding already, thank you for helping us freeze down the trails. We greatly appreciate it! Have a wonderful day everyone!

Thanks, Todd!

Michigan Snowmobile Trail Report

ONTONAGON AREA UPDATE via Scott's Superior Inn and Cabins >> Ontonagon / Porcupine Mountains Snowmobile Trail Report
The predicted snowstorm did not disappoint! Higher elevations away from Lake Superior received over a foot of fresh snow, while the lakeshore areas picked up 4–6 inches of wet, heavy, packable snow.
With snowfall totals like this, it will take a couple of days for groomers to fully flatten and set up the trails. Strong winds—gusting up to 60 mph—have created deep drifts in spots, especially in open areas.
If you’re planning to ride in the next day or two, please use caution. Groomers will be doing their best to get on top of everything, but with this much snow and wind, it will take a little time to dial the trails in.
That said, the New Year is kicking off with a great start for snowmobiling in the Ontonagon and Porcupine Mountains area.
Happy trails and ride safe! 🛷❄️ #ontonagon #westernup #snowphotosOntonagon / Porcupine Mountains Snowmobile Trail Report

The plan is for Steve to leave out of Hamilton's North Coast Adventures and Tractor Mac will head out from White Pine. We will update all when we see what we see.

Sault Ste. Marie Trail Report – 12/02

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

12/2-
Heads up! Especially for locals- the city trails, specifically from Ashmun to the high school and Kewadin and VERY wet, and also have utility work ongoing. We are recommending that you avoid this area until further notice for your own safety. We have a nice stretch of cold nights ahead, so that should help. We’ll update when we can!

Also, if you subscribe to Groomer Tracker, you may see a tucker move down 49 to kinross in the coming days. It WILL NOT have a drag with it, just moving the unit to check conditions. We also have property owners that have asked for us to hold off on opening the sections between 8 and 9 mile until things firm up. Please respect this.

For now, the only sections of trail on our trail system that have been panned are trail 8 from the Soo to Ranger Rd, and 889 around Bay Mills. There are still wet areas on the Mission Hill Loop on 889. Early season conditions, ride safe and with someone, and let people know where you’re going and when to expect you back. Lots of season to go and we want you to enjoy it when it’s prime.
As always, we’ll keep you posted!

2-4” more on the way❄️❄️❄️❄️

Michigan Snowmobile Trail Report

SAULT STE. MARIE AREA UPDATE via Sault Ste. Marie Snowmobile Association >> 12/29 5:30 PM update
We are strategizing our grooming plan. Winds are still extremely high, and snow is still falling on and off, causing white out conditions and downed trees, as well as power outages. MANY area businesses remain closed.
The Pisten Bully that normally runs the Brimley, Raco, (part of 480, 8, and the Raco Powerline) and Bay Mills (889) areas is still down at the Soo barn, awaiting a part and a quick repair, so those areas will not be groomed until it’s back out there, hopefully tomorrow.
The Kinross crew is waiting for winds to die down some and then they’ll work on 49 south of M80 and the 494 loop.
Don’t even think about taking 472 west of Mac Trail or 480 to the Spile Dam gate (see the pinned post). Trust us. With next to zero visibility and all of that construction equipment in there, it’s just not a good idea.
I am waiting to hear about trail 49 from the Soo to Kinross. Winds may still be too high to groom that, as there are a ton of open areas and it will not make any difference at all.
We’ll attempt the city trails and trail 8 from the Soo to Brimley later tonight.
We are hearing reports of huge drifts along with downed trees, so it may take a few runs to get things back to normal.
We cannot stress this enough- if for some reason you decide to ride (which we are not advising), do not ride alone. Bring a saw and emergency supplies, and be aware that first responders and tow companies will be very busy and it will be very difficult to help you if you have an issue. Download and use the What3Words app. You never know when you might need it.
All open areas will have monster drifts.
I’m hearing 6’+ in spots.
All road crossings will have huge berms from the plows until we can punch them out.
We have our work cut out for us. Please be patient and more than anything, please be safe!
It’s going to be amazing once we get things back in shape! ❄️❄️❄️
More to come soon! #soo

SAULT STE. MARIE AREA UPDATE via Sault Ste. Marie Snowmobile Association >> 12/29/25
Hey everyone!
Please know that we will get groomers out as soon as it makes sense to do so, meaning once our volunteers can get themselves and their homes dug out.
As we have been sharing, many area businesses are closed as the entire area tries to dig out. The winds have caused heavy drifting, and we had heavy freezing rain right up until the snow hit overnight. Again, there will be trees down, and you will encounter heavy drifting. Anywhere that trails cross roads will have large berms from plows that you’ll have to navigate. The snow is heavy and wet, and getting stuck is highly likely, especially for less experienced riders.
Please be patient and be cautious. We will get things back into shape as soon as we can, but we need to prioritize our own homes and businesses first.
Things should be awesome once we can get the trails cleared and groomed.
Thanks all! #soo

Good morning everyone! Freezing rain switched over to snow around 11 pm here. We picked up around 6” so far. Trees were coated with ice before the snow hit, and winds have picked up so I have no doubt that there will be trees down.
There will also be large drifts in the open areas. We know that people are here to ride, and we are advising extreme caution if you head out, especially until we can get out and assess the trails.
Surrounding areas, please check in with what you’re seeing for new snow as this storm continues.
Thanks all! Be safe! ❄️❄️❄️ #soo #soo1229 #snowphotos12/29/25
