WEATHER UPDATE via US National Weather Service Marquette Michigan >> A clipper low will bring widespread light snow to the U.P today with generally less than an inch of snowfall. The exception will be in the northwest wind snowbelts where up to 4” of dry fluffy snow is possible. It will be cold for New Years Eve and those headed out should dress accordingly; temperatures in the single digits and breezy conditions will result in sub zero wind chills. #miweather #keweenaw#westernup#marquette#munising #seney #newberry #soo #straitsareaA clipper low will bring widespread light snow to the U.P today with generally less than an inch of snowfall.

SENEY AREA UPDATE via Seney Snowmobile Association >> Well, that was one heck of a storm we got yesterday! We currently have two machines heading to the bear trap to try and get that back into shape. We will be working on 440 also today. It’s going to take us a few days to get all the trails cleared. If your out riding today be careful out there lots of snow drifts. If you see a tree down and you can help move it please lend a hand we can use all the help we can get. #seney #newberry ... See MoreSee Less
SAULT STE. MARIE UPDATE via Sault Ste. Marie Snowmobile Association – 01/18
1/18 update for the Bay Mills/Brimley area
Good afternoon!
Today, Raco Dave took out a new guy, rookie Marc, to groom trail 8 between Brimley and where we turn around at Ranger Rd, and also 889, which includes the loop to Mission Hill Overlook and the trail to Bay Mills Resort and Casino.
He said that 8 from Brimley to the power lines is great. The power lines themselves are almost down to dirt due to wind. Luckily, it’s a pretty short stretch and there is another side that you can get into the snow to cool, if needed.
He also said that 889 with the exception of the twisty part closest to the resort is great. The twisty section is thin and bumpy. You can tell this is basically the snow cut off line. He was also able to groom all the way to across from the casino, so that is in much better shape now!
Thank you Dave, and welcome aboard, Marc! We are happy to have you on the team!
We need some rookie luck, and a big snowstorm!❄️❄️❄️

1/18 update-
Once again, snow is just not hitting here. But you don’t have to go far. Paradise has been getting decent snow, and that continues. Follow the Paradise Area Night Riders page for their updates. They’re going to check the swamps south of Paradise today. Also, to our south, Les Cheneaux Snowmobile Club & Grooming Report has been getting decent snow. Check their page for those updates. Again, the western part of our trail system from Bay Mills on is in better shape than the Soo.

SAULT STE. MARIE AREA UPDATE via Sault Ste. Marie Snowmobile Association >> 12/31 It’s a mixed bag of nuts around here. Where things are good, they are REALLY good! We just need to get to all areas and we are making progress. Beautiful images from Pat on the 494 loop this morning. Thank you, Pat! ❄️❄️❄️ #soo #soo1231#snowphotos... See MoreSee Less
SAULT STE. MARIE AREA UPDATE via Sault Ste. Marie Snowmobile Association >> 12/31 Happy New Years Eve! Snow is ongoing in our area. I show around 3-4” new snow in the Soo so far, reports in Brimley of at least 7” new snow. A word of caution- we do not like to send groomers out during the day, but sometimes we do not have a choice. Kenny and Jim will be headed out to tackle 889 in the Bay Mills area around noon today. There are many trees down and heavy drifting. It will undoubtedly be a long run for them, and the main goal is to get things opened up. Pat is out early south of Kinross on 494. 472 west to Tilson should also be done today. As a reminder, we cannot groom past Tilson Rd on 472 due to construction equipment. Please be on the lookout for the groomers, and if you’re able to move small branches safely, we appreciate the help! Subscribe to Groomer Tracker to see where the groomers are in real time. Thank you! #soo ... See MoreSee Less
