KEWEENAW PENINSULA UPDATE via Keweenaw Trail Reports – 3/23
WOW! L👀K at this!
What a crazy weather pattern we have had here in the Keweenaw over the last few days! After some rain, sleet and heavy winds we ended up with a good amount of fresh snowfall. Keweenaw County recorded TEN inches yesterday! We do not yet have official amounts from today, but I’m sure we are approaching that 300 inch mark for the season! Houghton County recorded 4 inches yesterday. It seems areas further south received more rain/sleet from this storm.
The views are always better when the trees are snow covered! Absolutely beautiful photos from Brent Mason!
Brent arrived in the Keweenaw and checked into the AmericInn Calumet and immediately headed out to ride! Brent said, “Trail 17/3 from Calumet is is BEAUTFUL 😍! The trail going up to Brockway Mountain was deep and awesome snow! There’s a lot of snow up on top of Brockway Mountain now too! It was very foggy up there so couldn’t really see much though.”
For those calling, texting and messaging asking whether it’s worth it or not to come up for one last ride for the season…. we can’t make that decision for you – BUT we can tell you that all reports coming in from riders would say – YES!
Groomer operators will be out as soon as conditions allow. This is a great time to download the Groomer Tracker app and subscribe to the Keweenaw Snowmobile Club trail system. By doing so you you will have access to real time grooming updates.
There have not been any hazards reported on the trails north of the Portage Lake Lift Bridge by other riders, but that doesn’t mean there aren’t some out there. Please ride with caution as always! This is late season riding!
