Lake Gogebic Area Trail Report – 01/20
LAKE GOGEBIC AREA UPDATE via Gogebic Area Grooming >> 01/19
Bergland Area Groomer’s report for Monday evening 1-19-26.
Cold and Snowy!!
Currently we’re sitting around -9Β°.
Snowfall, I think it varies in each particular area but guessing we’ve received 20″+ over the past 3 day’s..
As with any significant storm we receive it will take a few passes to get everything back in shape but the trail’s hit tonight turned out good!
Trail’s covered tonight 13n, 1n, 8w and 8e.
8w to Wakefield is in good shape now and no more water holes, a little narrow in spots but π― passable. Video is of 1n to White Pine. Thanks everyone.

IRONWOOD - WESTERN U.P. UPDATE via Gogebic Range Trail Authority - ORV & Snowmobile Club >> Charlie was out last night grooming 11s! Trail has shaped up nicely.

Ride respectfully but more importantly, ride safe. #westernup #snowphotos
WEATHER UPDATE via US National Weather Service Marquette Michigan >> Mostly light northwest wind lake effect continues through today, although we may see some half inch per hour rates at times over the east from time to time before it tapers off tonight.

ONTONAGON AREA UPDATE via Scott's Superior Inn and Cabins >> βοΈ Porcupine Mountains / Ontonagon Snow Report βοΈ
Winter is absolutely delivering right now. Weβre over 160β for the season total so far.
Weβve measured 24 inches of fresh snow in just the last week and a half right on our deck, and conditions across the Porcupine Mountains and Ontonagon area are shaping up to be the best snowmobiling and skiing weβve seen in many years.
Snowmobile trails are well-covered with a solid base, riding smooth and fast thanks to consistent cold temps. Off-trail snow is deep, fluffy, and exactly what you hope for up here. For skiers β both downhill and Nordic β coverage is excellent, with beautiful natural snow and classic Lake Superior powder conditions.
πΈ This photo shows exactly whatβs fallen recently β and thereβs even more in the woods.
If youβve been waiting for a reason to make the trip north, this is it.
And if youβre looking for a warm, comfortable place to stay after a full day on the trails or slopes, Scottβs Superior Inn & Cabins is right here in Ontonagon β rider- and skier-friendly, close to the trails, and the perfect home base for conditions like this.
These are the kind of winters people remember. Donβt miss it. #ontonagon #westernup #snowphotosβοΈ Porcupine Mountains / Ontonagon Snow Report βοΈ

LAKE GOGEBIC AREA UPDATE via Gogebic Area Grooming >> Bergland Area Groomer's update. 2-2-26.
Such a busy week it's been. From keeping up with trail's and making sure both machine's are on the trail! We've had our hands full.
Temp's on Saturday got into the upper 20's and heavy traffic really took a toll throughout our system. We've been able to get everything back in shape, but some will take a couple passes to get back to Great Again!!
Trail's covered tonight 102, 13n, 8e and 8w.
Will we make it to March 31st this season? It looks promising..
Think cold and βοΈ βοΈ βοΈ Gogebic Area Grooming
