KEWEENAW PENINSULA UPDATE via Keweenaw Trail Reports – 01/21
Groomer Operators are pretty much back in full swing grooming trails for riders each day and night. There was a pause to grooming operations due to limited snowfall there for awhile.
The recent snowfall this week has enabled them to resume their schedules and trails are shaping up nicely, as you can see from these photos! Groomer Operator Joshua Rowe Sr. was one operator out all night and these are a few photos of those ribbon 🎀 trails he was laying.
Previously we had mentioned that trail 135 was in pretty poor condition, Josh has said he has been able to groom it the past two nights and it is getting better. He also said that Brockway Mountain
still had some thin areas and of course drifting with the winds we have had. Riders have all been commenting that the mountain was in good shape and the views are amazing!
✅ Trail 124 (previously closed for logging) is now OPEN. There was a water hole on this trail also but It has been filled in and appears to be holding strong 🤞 huge thanks to the Groomer Operators working so hard on this one
⛔ Trail 133 is closed for the entire season due to logging
⛔ Trail 3 from Dollar Bay to Lake Linden is closed due to the Father’s Day flood of 2018. You can still access Lake Linden from Calumet
⛔The Freda Loop – Trails 120 & 121 are also still closed due to the Father’s Day Flood of 2018
⚠ if you are planning to try to ride out to High Rock Bay, please use extreme caution as the water hole is still an issue. Groomer Operators have worked on filling this in several times and will continue to do so. Hopefully with a good freeze and more snowfall they will be able to get the hole locked up.
All other trails are open and will lead you to so many breathtakingly, beautiful areas to view all that the Keweenaw has to offer!
