LAKE GOGEBIC AREA UPDATE via Gogebic Area Grooming – 2/23
The best trails of the year are being set at this moment.. We’re on the downside of the Season. Come play while you can!!!!!
<>
It’s going to take a couple trips out to get the trails in shape again. We shut down last night to keep our operators safe. Grooming trails would have been fine, but getting the operators to the Groomer Barn and back home safely, was the concern. Enjoy the powder and drifts. We’re coming out to knock them down….

ONTONAGON AREA UPDATE via Hamilton's North Coast Adventures >> Riding across the Ontonagon River bridge on trail 12 is a sight to behold! You soar 80 feet above the river on a dedicated section for motorized vehicles to use, how awesome is that?! It's one of the tightest groomer sections we have that provides very little margin for error. It's also a great view of Lake Superior, the Trapp hills to the south, and really lets you know how pro-snowmobile Ontonagon is. It's a tremendous destination full of amazing eateries like Up north cafe (best pancakes on planet earth), Syl's Restaurant, GiGi's Coffee and Sandwiches, Connie's Coffee and Subs, and of course the famous Roxey's Bar and Grill! What's your favorite stop for food in Ontonagon? #ontonagon #westernup#snowphotos... See MoreSee Less
