Keweenaw Peninsula Trail Report – 02/09
KEWEENAW PENINSULA UPDATE via Keweenaw Trail Reports – 02/08 THIRTY FIVE plus inches of snow has fallen in the Keweenaw since Thursday and it just continues to fall! ❄️ Adam Garvey and his niece were out enjoying the trails today and actually caught a glimpse of the sun up in Cooper Harbor. Other than that, it was a very low visibility day again with the lake effect snow and the cold temperatures causing a great deal of snow dust. Adam shared these photos of their ride today! (After searching the area around the trail for the Cliff View Bar sign). The sign usually located on Trail 3 for Cliff View is “missing” and it does not appear to have “blown” away. If you know anything about the whereabouts of this sign, please let us know or call Cliff View Bar! <> Literally the Lake Effect Snow making machine switch is stuck in the “on” position….. I’m not sure it’s ever going to stop! I’m not going to lie, it has been cold riding BUT so worth it with all the fresh snow! Thank goodness indoor dining has been resumed! Do you have a trip planned? <> KEWEENAW PENINSULA UPDATE via Western & Southern UP Trail Reports – Waiting for updates…. <> Keweenaw Trail Reports on Facebook >>>> <> WEATHER UPDATE via US National Weather Service Marquette Michigan >> Expect scattered light lake effect snow showers in the NW wind snowbelts tonight with less than an inch of accumulation.

It looks like we have the entire week of bitterly cold temps ahead also, but come next week they will be more tolerable. The Keweenaw has been significantly “warmer” than a lot of other areas in the U.P. and northern Wisconsin. I included a photo from US National Weather Service Marquette Michigan
of the overnight temps also.

Trail109 was a little moguled up last night from the weekend traffic, so I cut her deep. Hopefully it'll hold up until I can hit it again Tuesday. I woke up to another 4 inches this morning and itsxstill snowing.
