Cadillac Area Trail Report – 12/01

CADILLAC AREA UPDATE via Cadillac Winter Promotions >> 12/01

Thanks to our awesome volunteers a lot of our trail system has been panned! We are off to a great start with this early snowfall, but with that being said please take it easy if you plan on getting some miles in. The trails are very vulnerable right now. Try to help preserve what we have.

CADILLAC AREA UPDATE via Coyote Crossing Resort >> 12/01

It’s been a beautiful Thanksgiving weekend, as 6-12″ of snow have fallen in the Greater Cadillac area! Trails opened today, Dec. 1st, for all hours of the day. Please ride conservatively as establishing this base is paramount to a long season!

Anyone that’s in the area riding, please take saws out with you — if you can — to clear downed branches. I’m going out today to pan and clear trails along with other volunteers. Special thanks to groomer driver, Wes Freeman, also of Crossroads Trailblazers, for 7 hours of effort on Friday clearing the trails!!

We do have cabins available the next few weeks. Check out our special cabin rates for Pre-Christmas dates, Dec. 7th – 21st. Call for discount at 231-862-3212, Ext. 2.

KEWEENAW PENINSULA UPDATE via Keweenaw Snowmobile Club >> 12/01

December 1st! Much like many clubs across the UP, we’re dealing with a large amount of downed trees and branches hanging over our trails. Please be patient as we clean up and open things gradually.

Conditions to Note:

🌉 Portage Lake Lift Bridge crossing is not open, and won’t open until the Coast Guard closes the shipping lane.

⚠Gates will remain closed on private property until trails can be opened.

🛑 Trail 130 between Eagle Harbor and Eagle River due to logging, can access both towns via their trail spurs until logging completes.

🛑 Trail 124 between Trail 3 at Vansville junction and the 122/124 intersection due to logging. Please respect this closure and stay out of this area so we don’t risk permanent trail closures.

🛑 Trail 133 closed until at least 12/15 due to hunting.
Early season conditions exist across the system, water spots, rocks, trees down, etc.

Ride right, ride safe!
