Sidnaw / Bruce Crossing Trail Report – 02/15

Groomer Tim shared these pictures from earlier today. He was heading west from Trout Creek. He’s groomed everything once, and is on his way back down Military Hill. Trails are actually looking pretty good – other than road crossings.

<>

The temps have dropped here and the rain has turned to snow.

We will be grooming tonight and will have a better idea on trail conditions a little later.

We are hearing that road crossings are really bare, but snow in covered areas (the woods) made it through the rain and warmer temps.

WEATHER UPDATE via US National Weather Service Marquette Michigan >> Widespread snow will begin to spread west to east this morning while a heavier snowband looks to set up in the central UP this afternoon. Uncertainty still remains where this snowband will park, however, heavy snowfall rates will likely create difficult travel along US-41 from Delta to Marquette/Alger counties. Tonight, widespread snow transitions to lake effect snow for the north wind snowbelts.

WATERSMEET - WESTERN U.P. UPDATE via U.P. Thunder Riders Snowmobile Club >> UPDATED 1/9/26- We seem to have weathered the slight warm up and trails seemed to have held up snow wise. Trails are a little choppy but our groomers are out so hopefully they will be back in good shape by tonight. We had to switch groomers going west so groomer tracker is not showing but will get that back up and running soon. A lot of trees came down again with the last little storm so please watch out for trees and remember Ride Right and Ride Safe. Watch out for groomers also. #watersmeet #westernup ...

Keweenaw Peninsula Trail Report – 02/15

KEWEENAW PENINSULA UPDATE via Keweenaw Trail Reports – 2/15

First report from someone that has actually been out on the trail….

Mike Rode just took a short ride up to Cliff View Bar and shared these photos (and a video which can be found in the comments as fb does not allow videos and photos to be shared in the same post) Mike said, “ Just a short rip up trail 3 to Phoenix/Cliff View Bar to checkout trail conditions- some icy corners – will be some ice spots on trails, but for what I have been on it’s at least 2 inches of fresh already and also some drifting over the trail which actually helps. I also have 244 picks my sled, so that helps me too. No other riders out yet, besides 3 I just saw ripping the road in front of Cliff View 🤦‍♂️”

Thanks for taking the time to share, Mike!

We can say that yesterday prior to the rain the trails north of Calumet or Mohawk area were in better condition but reports of trails up by Copper Harbor were that they were getting real thin in areas. Received some very good reports regarding trail 134 up that way. Of course getting through Houghton/Hancock and other towns/road crossing was real ugly. This is the first report we have from today and it’s only in regards to a section of trail 3. (We realize that’s not a huge overview, but looking to provide you with some first hand information instead of our speculations) There are other groups of riders that have said they will be riding today, so we will continue to provide any feedback received. Hope this helps a little bit for all of the messages we have received.

KEWEENAW PENINSULA UPDATE via The Trailside Lodge >> Well… Mother Nature heard us complaining about that warm-up and said absolutely NOT. ❄️
Colder temps and snowy powder falling all day long.
Not mad about it. In fact... let’s keep it coming.
The sleds are out there having an absolute blast on the trails. And yeah, we’re pretty sure the customers are having fun too… based on the grins (behind the helmets of course), throttle therapy, and lack of urgency to come back 😎 #keweenaw #snowphotosWell… Mother Nature heard us complaining about that warm-up and said absolutely NOT. ❄️

📸 Pic details for the trail detectives:
This photo was taken right along Trail #17 between Calumet and Houghton, and those good-looking machines are 3 of our Ski-Doo 600 Backcountries E-TEC's.

🏨 Little bonus perk:
Our hotel rooms are located right at the same spot as our rentals.
Ride all day, park your sled right at your door, warm up, relax, and repeat. No trailering. No nonsense.

Colder temps, snowy trails, happy sleds, and zero complaints today.
Who’s ready to ride? ❄️😏

It looks like everyone was out last night working on our trails. Reports are the trails were in pretty bad shape but seemed to groom well despite the snow being like sugar. The fresh snow will help make it more workable tonight.
Get the Groomer Tracker app on your phone so you'll be able to see who's been out laying that ribbon.
