KEWEENAW PENINSULA UPDATE via Keweenaw Trail Reports – 3/17
🍀Happy St. Patrick’s Day! Let’s celebrate with a little green 🟢 on the Groomer Tracker App!
The temps finally decided to start dropping last night and the high today has been above freezing, but the “real feel” is only about 30 degrees.
Trail 3 from Mohawk -> trail 134 ->Copper Harbor -> across Brockway Mountain and back down to trail 3 -> Mohawk was groomed last night/this morning and ALL reports for those sections of trail are excellent.
Steve Benzino came into town last night and is currently out riding now. Steve started out of South Range this morning and said, “Hey there! Just rode from South Range to Copper Harbor and am currently eating at The Mariner North! Trails from South Range heading north were super rough. Throughout Houghton/Hancock and north, the trails were super tore up. Once we hit Mohawk the trails changed drastically! These trails up north here are AMAZING! I feel like the areas to the south have huge potential if the groomers go out soon before it all freezes tonight. Trails are mainly slush but if they are panned out they will be excellent! huge base still!”
Thanks for sharing Steve. Other riders concur, with Steve that trail 3/134 north out of Mohawk to Copper Harbor is in excellent condition. Hopefully temps dip down far enough where groomer operators feel it will be conducive to grooming!
This is a great time to download the Groomer Tracker App and subscribe to the Keweenaw Snowmobile Club trail system. This will enable you to have up to the moment information on trail grooming operations!

KEWEENAW PENINSULA UPDATE via Western Up Trail Reports…. 3/17
I told some of you I’d give you an honest video on the trail conditions and here it is. There’s plenty of snow to ride on just not near what others are claiming.
I took a short ride and Trail 3 is a little ruff but with smart shocks you’d never know it.
