KEWEENAW PENINSULA UPDATE via Western UP Trail Reports >> 19 January 2026
We received another 6.5 inches this morning and it's still snowing at 10:00am. Pretty much white out conditions all morning and it's still very poor visibility.
Stay warm it's only 1° right now.
I thought I'd share a few picks from my ride down 109 yesterday while I grooming.

KEWEENAW PENINSULA UPDATE via The Lakeshack >> With 3” of new snow it brings our total to 133.35” for the season and a total current depth here in Twin Lakes to 33”
I can personally say that it seems like quite a bit more deep in the woods seeing some mounds on stumps etc…
It looks like some significant snows will move in again tonight, so keep an eye on the Shackiecam for 24/7 live streaming coverage
