Munising Area Trail Report – 02/02

MUNISING AREA UPDATE via TNT Trenary Northern Trails >> 02/02

A full run on some of Alger SORVA’s trails today. Trail 8 from 417 to m94, trail 7 north from 8 to Christmas, 417 to the Brownstone, and 418 from the Brownstone to Autrain. Trail 8 groomed out well, but the snow is like sand and won’t hold up to heavy traffic. 7 was the same with a few thin areas. 417 has a little bit better snow, but more thin spots and a few rocks close to the surface, so use caution. 418 was flat, but really thin with lots of rocks mixed in.

On another note, please ride like there could be a groomer around the next corner. There were quite a few sledders locked up sideways trying to stop when they realized I was on the blind side of a corner. Don’t ride beyond your ability and your line of sight. It could save your life or someone else’s. Ride right and ride safe!

Ontonagon Area Trail Report – 02/02

ONTONAGON AREA UPDATE via Scott’s Superior Inn and Cabins >> 02/02

It’s not about the miles, it’s about the smiles! 😊

Today was one for the books! I had the absolute pleasure of riding with my friend Art, a true legend on the trails. His motto is, “It’s not about the miles, it’s about the smiles,” and let me tell you—I smiled a LOT today.

We hit the backcountry, carving through the wilderness, and it was all I could do to keep pace with this 73-year-old adventurer. His energy, skill, and pure love for the ride are nothing short of inspiring.

Riding with Art is more than just a journey; it’s a reminder to soak in the moment, embrace the adventure, and appreciate the friendships that make life so much richer. Thanks for the ride, Art—I’ll be grinning for days!

LAKE GOGEBIC AREA UPDATE via Gogebic Area Grooming >> Your Sunday evening 12-14-25 Groomer's report from the Bergland Area.
We received around 8"to 10" over the past 2 days from the latest storm. The snow and cold have been helping out tremendously!!
I was waiting to hear from one of our operators out currently who had just groomed 8w to see if thing's had improved but he hasn't replied. However 8w and 1n are currently being groomed.
Today we finally punched through 102. We'll let 102 set up for a day or 2 and run through her again without a drag.
Then 13 from Root Cellar north is the last section to open up along with access trail's. 🤞Mother Nature cooperates! We are moving forward and some sections are beautiful and other's just need time. Thanks everyone! Gogebic Area Grooming ❄️❄️❄️ #lakegogebic #westernup #snowphotos

ONTONAGON AREA UPDATE via Erika’s Trail Reports - Western UP/Porkies/Ottawa Forest/Ontonagon County >> 😍 GROOMING INSIDE A SNOW GLOBE 😍
❄️ WEEK 2 - ERIKA’S TRAIL REPORTS ❄️
(long post but worth the read)
While you were sleeping… 🌙
Our 1st official grooming (Team Trent & Erika) of the 2025-2026 season was MAGICAL!
With real feel of -15F and blizzard-like conditions, we groomed for 10 hours overnight (12/12-12/13) during heavy lake effect snow! North Country Snowmobile Club trail conditions have significantly improved thanks to the dedicated volunteers that have been cleaning the trails day and night for your enjoyment! We rated trails 101, 13 and 137 and unplowed forest roads tonight - EXCELLENT CONDITION!!! WOW, we can’t believe that it is only the 2nd week of December!
🚨 IMPORTANT REMINDERS 🚨
⚠️ Heavy lake effect snow going on all weekend: snow quickly accumulating on trails and with low visibility at times
⚠️ Trail 12 to Greenland has not been actively groomed yet;
⚠️ Trail 12/Norwich Road has not been actively groomed yet;
⚠️ Trails 1 and 11 (Porkies/Lake of the Clouds) are being worked on this weekend;
⚠️ Snow is deep and plentiful in the forest but lower accumulation near the lakefront
👏🏻 Many thanks to all the group of riders that we saw tonight for being mindful of the groomer. Let’s continue to enjoy snowmobiling in a responsible way and go home safely. #ontonagon #westernup #snowphotos
