Lake Gogebic Area Trail Report – 02/04
LAKE GOGEBIC AREA UPDATE via Gogebic Area Grooming >> 02/04 Marenisco area crews out again tonight putting the polish on Trails 1 and 8. The cold weather is really helping get things and both trails were left smooth and solid before the snow predicted for this week and weekend! Thanks to all the sled heads tonight for taking care of the freshly groomed surface after going by.

We finished our ride yesterday on Trail 137 to Trail 13 to 101 to 12 back to White Pine. The snow had turned to mashed potatoes but trails for the most part were smooth and holding up well.
There are bare spots, standing water, running water, deteriorating snow bridges, and any roadside trail is bare, pretty typical late season riding.
Friday should still be a good day for riding.
Due to high temps we have halted all grooming operations.
Will go back out Sunday to assess the damage Ma Nature is causing.

Today marks the first official day of spring — and that means longer daylight hours on the trails.
There’s still time to get out and ride before the season ends.
If you’re heading out:
✔ Ride Right
✔ Lead Right
✔ Respect the trails and landowners
And remember — the groomer always has the right of way.
Enjoy the longer days and make the most of the remaining riding season! ❄️

Art just rode 142 miles across the Ontonagon trail system and called it “the best March riding he’s seen in 20 years.” ❄️🔥
The trails are in incredible shape, and this late-season snow has everything dialed in—smooth, fast, and just plain fun. If you’ve been waiting for the right time to ride… this is it.
It’s not too late for one last trip. Come on up and make it count. 🏁 #ontonagon #westernup #snowphotos
🛷 Thursday, March 19th: Clouds, then bright blue sky… 🌥️☀️
🛷 Have patience as the season winds down. Some places are awesome; others are wind-swept.
🛷 These photos are from 11 am. At 3 pm, it’s now blue sky.
🛷 Tomorrow/Friday calls for 46 degrees and rain. 🌧️
❄️ Sunday? Possibly 3” of fresh snow. It is what it is… winter and spring are co-mingling! #lakegogebic #westernup #snowphotos

Thank you to our Groomers, Wyatt Jay and Josh and The U.P. Superior Snowmobile Club !! #ontonagon #westernup #snowphotosOut riding with Mama Sledhead. Hit Trail #12 from White Pine to Greenland. I would rate it "very good" with the exception being the the 2 miles running the farm fields along HWY 38. The wind drifted snow across and it's bumpy.

Today, highs near 40, partly to mostly cloudy.
Tonight, rain with some snow (mostly north and east, as shown in the map) and freezing rain mixing in. Lows near 30.
Friday, mostly cloudy, highs in the mid 30s (north, east) to near 50 (MI/WI state line).
Weekend, tracking the potential for accumulating snow or freezing rain. Chances of 3+ inches of wet snow around 30% mainly Saturday night. #miweather #keweenaw #westernup #marquette #munising #seney #newberry #soo #straitsareaKey Messages:

A big THANK YOU to Groomer Josh and Tractor Mac for some late season magic.
We are out riding them and they are awesome!!
Rode the ribbon on 101!
Runoff water is moving, the little bit of cold we've had did not slow it down. Our snow bridges are failing. We are rebuilding them but Ma Nature is slowly winning the battle.
Trail #12 along LP Walsh road has 4 snow bridges, all are narrowing. Trail #1 between South Boundary Road and The Porkies Ski Hill has 2 that are the same. Please use extreme caution.
A warm-up is forecast. Temps at night barely below freezing for a couple hours the next 3 nights with highs in the 40's. Fingers crossed they are wrong.
Come up and ride the 906 quick!! #ontonagon #westernup #snowphotosMarch 18 Trail Report:
