Keweenaw Peninsula Trail Report – 01/18
<> KEWEENAW PENINSULA UPDATE via Keweenaw Trail Reports…. It has been amazing conditions for riding Michigan’s Keweenaw Peninsula over the past couple of weeks! It’s snowing with a forecast that ranges with anywhere from 4-10 inches right now! All trails have been groomed in the last 24 hrs, with the exception of the spur to High Rock Bay. Cullen Keath and crew were just up for their annual trip to ride the Keweenaw Snowmobile Club trails! A few in their crew rented their sleds from Copper Country Rentals again this year. They said it was a great experience renting from them! ( Copper Country rentals is conveniently located right on trail 17 in Calumet at The Trailside Lodge. Cullen shared these photos and details about their trip, “This was our second annual trip to the Keweenaw Peninsula! It was an awesome 2 days of riding with 275 miles total! The first day ride was from Calumet to Rockland, we had planned to go to Bergland, but there wasn’t enough time. We enjoyed the day of riding in the beautiful weather. We took a break at The Mosquito Inn! The second day we rode from Calumet to Eagle Harbor. It was a beautiful view along the Lake Superior shoreline and of the Eagle Harbor Lighthouse. We then headed to Brockway, one of my favorite things to do on the snowmobile! We stopped to eat lunch at The Mariner North. The food is SO good and they have a GREAT staff! We left High Rock and headed on a long ride to the Gay Bar in Gay, Michigan. It was a great trail ride! If you would like real-time information on grooming operations, please download Groomer Tracker app and subscribe to the Keweenaw Snowmobile Keweenaw Snowmobile Club trails! There is a nominal fee of $10 and half of that goes straight to the club to help support the trail grooming! <> KEWEENAW PENINSULA UPDATE via Western Up Trail Reports…. Getting hit with some significant snow right now here in the Western UP. Looks to me like it will give us between 10″-12″ before it’s said and done but that’s my prediction. <> <> <> <> Keweenaw Trail Reports on Facebook >>>> <> KEWEENAW PENINSULA UPDATE via Western UP Trail Reports >> 11/09/2025 FROM Krupps Resort >> Thinking that was the first of the 2025-2026 sled fill ups at Krupp's Mini Mart 🤷♀️😊❄️ Like said in the video, we are separate owners 😊 See them for gas, food, trail passes etc and come see us at fhe Resort for cabins/RV spots and pontoons (summer time for those of course haha) Don’t forget we have a huge field that is kept plowed daily (at times more than once a day haha) with a heated changing room, heated portable potty, heated ER building for working on your sleds- also if tools are needed and we have it it’s your to use!

From Copper Harbor, we rode out to High Rock Bay. The last part of trail 134 had a lot of moguls , but so worth it for the view of Lake Superior!
So grateful to all of the Groomer Operators that gave us such amazing conditions to ride! Thank you!”
We are so happy you enjoyed your annual trip to the Keweenaw! Thank you SO much for sharing your beautiful photos and videos with us Cullen!

Oh yeah - did I mention snow? We got about 4" of pretty, fluffy snow.
Sunday, November 9, 2025 #keweenaw #snowphotos
The first one is the synoptic (aka "system") snow associated with a low that is moving east through southern Ohio. The counterclockwise flow around the low is shown over Metro Detroit as moisture interacts with decreasing temps, leading to this morning's snowfall.
Over the U.P. and Lake Michigan, the north winds are ushering in the coldest air of the season, which activates lake effect snow and transitions to the second portion of this snow event. Counties in the corner of southwest lower Michigan, northern Indiana and Illinois are set to receive a firehose of lake effect over the next 24-36 hrs, resulting in accumulations that could push one foot.
Portions of northern lower Michigan and the Saginaw Bay region are also set to receive lake effect snowfall through this evening, with amounts of 3-6 inches possible, with isolated higher amounts. #miweather #keweenaw #westernup #newberry #soo #gaylord #cadillac #traversecity #petoskey
Let the snow begin. All my sources are saying we have accumulating snow coming between today and Monday.
