It's May 1st and took a little putt on the Mach Z. We definitely needs a little more snow to make it more fun. I measured 3.5 inches yesterday and 4 more this morning. WEATHER UPDATE via US National Weather Service Marquette Michigan --> Historic late season snow storm ends today. Snow continues this morning, heaviest across the north central highlands. Snow will then quickly diminish this afternoon and will end most areas by late afternoon. Where the heaviest snow has fallen, travel will be very difficult this morning. Also, where snow has collected on trees, gusty winds this morning may still break tree limbs and cause additional power outages. With warmer weather ahead, melting snow will lead to water level rises on rivers and streams, creating the potential of more flooding... #miweather #keweenaw #westernup #marquette #munising #seney #newberry #soo #straitsareaHistoric late season snow storm ends today.

We've had a couple days of snow with a little over 2 inches accumulation. However we're heading into a warming trend of 50's and upper 60's next week. It might just be time to switch toys real soon. I thought the trails are closed? Meaning we can’t ride anymore KEWEENAW PENINSULA UPDATE via The U.P. Superior Snowmobile Club --> On this final day of the 2022-2023 season, I wish to thank our awesome groomers. They not only groom, but maintain and repair our equipment, do trail rescues, repair wet areas on the trails, plow out our barns, tree removal, make new trails with signage for reroutes, clear debris under bridges and repair, and replace missing signs through out the season. Not to mention sending me trail updates, so that I can share the information with our members, and the public! We certainly could not do, what we do, without this great team!! Their support, and dedication to our club is priceless! <> Latest Trail Reports – Quick Links <>
Our snow “storm” sure didn’t pan out…. Keweenaw County only recorded 4.5 inches of fresh snowfall and a total of 305.5 inches for the season so far. There is definitely not a lack of snow though for those of us out enjoying the trails today!
Reid Berman has been up riding Michigan’s Keweenaw Peninsula for the past week and half 😳 and shared these photos from this morning. Reid said, “It’s pretty good out here, a few bumps, but they are minor. It has been good riding!”
Hope anyone that has the opportunity to ride today enjoys the day!
We would like to thank all riders, sponsors and club members for a great season!Postings From Keweenaw Trail Reports On Facebook

We've got just over 7 inches of fresh snow in the past 2 days, and more in the forecast. Trail is in pretty good shape considering.
