Michigan Snowmobile Trail Report

WEATHER UPDATE via US National Weather Service Marquette Michigan >> Another quickly-moving Clipper will bring a round of widespread, light snow beginning this evening, followed by lingering lake effect snow across the NW wind snow belts for Tuesday. Totals of an inch or less are expected for most of the UP, but where lake effect snow occurs, up to 2-5in of snow is possible tonight through Tuesday evening. As winds pick up early Tuesday, patchy blowing snow may contribute to reduced visibility in the NW wind snow belts.

Sault Ste. Marie Trail Report – 01/11

SAULT STE. MARIE UPDATE via Sault Ste. Marie Snowmobile Association – 1/11

Groomer Bryan and his little helper went out and hit the city trails tonight. As you can see, they shaped up beautifully with all of the new snow. Even the ditches near Kewadin Casino are nearly completely filled in now. Grooming is tiring work- the sled counter fell asleep😴

Thank you Bryan, Logan, and all volunteers!

See you on the trails!❄️❄️❄️

Good morning! Now that the snow has settled, it looks like we picked up around 15” or so of new snow with the storm here in the Soo. There is a post further down where people are reporting snow totals for the area if you want to get a bigger picture. Feel free to also report those on this post. We do still have 2 of the 3 groomers down and being worked on today. However, groomer Dave was able to get old #7 up and running yesterday and went to the Spile Dam on trails 480 and parts of 472. The parts for the Pisten Bully that does trail 889 in Brimley and Bay Mills will be here today. Here’s the report:

*Sault Ste. Marie to Brimley, Trail #8 –
Excellent- groomed 1/11 – lots of new snow here so this trail is excellent!

*Brimley to Raco, Trail #8 and #480 to just west of Spile Dam
Good- groomed 1/7, waiting on parts for the groomer. Should be back up today.

When going across the bridge in Brimley make sure you go with the flow of traffic! Blowing and drifting occurs when you first leave Brimley.

Watch for trail change going south just before getting to Raco.
*Mission Hill trail #889

Good – groomed 1/7, waiting on the parts for the groomer, should be fixed today

*Sault Ste. Marie City Trail, Trails #497, #449, parts of #8 & #49

Good- Groomed 1/10– overall in good shape with some drifting by the airport. There is a WET AREA on the courtesy trail to The Antlers. DO NOT attempt to ride through there. Sleds are getting stuck in deep water and mud. All of the new snow will help and that shouldn’t be an issue much longer, we just need to get in there to check it out.

Be sure to stop at the stop sign on top of the hill by the tunnel. It is very difficult for groomers to stop when they are going up hill so please stop and stay off to the side.
We now have a marked trail going to Chippewa Motors. It starts once you come out of the woods east of M-129 off #449. It comes into their parking lot from behind if you need parts or service.
City curfew is from 1 am – 6 am. Remember most City streets are open to traffic 20 mph, stop at all intersections, and ride on the right hand side of the street, not on side walks. Watch for closed streets that are posted, mainly around the hospital, university, and state trunk lines.

*Sault Ste. Marie to Kinross, Trail #49 –
Fair to Poor – We can only groom to just south to 12 mile at this time. There was an open ditch where the bridge is out south of 3 mile mile that has likely frozen over enough for sleds but the groomer keeps breaking through so we are not grooming that section for now. There are also wet areas south of 12 mile. Gates are currently open but it will be bumpy since it’s not groomed much south of 12 mile.

Make sure you follow the reroute once you cross the bridge going south at 7 Mile road .

*Kinross loop & south to Pickford, Parts of Trail #49, #472, and #494-

Fair to good- some moguls

*Kinross to Raco & Rudyard, Parts of trail #472 & #480-
Good – Groomed 1/10 Groomer Dave was able to fill in a lot of the moguls with new snow.

There is a long stretch of road riding along Ploegstra Road before you get to the Spile Dam area where it is down to pavement when we do not have recent snow

Ride safe and stay warm! Currently -7 with a real feel of -17🥶❄️🥶❄️
