Over 3 feet of snow on the ground! We have been adding fresh snow just about every day. Riders are saying this is the best they have "ever" seen the trails. We will update our trail report if anything changes, but I am running out of things to say… snow.. lots of it! Awesome trails! Groomers running!
Why head north and cross the bridge to ride? You can go miles and miles and miles without seeing a stop sign and frequently without seeing another sled. We have 30" on our snow gauge and there is more snow north of us. Newberry is 1 hour north of the bridge.
CAUTION: Trail #45 (Newberry-Tahq Falls) will be plowed starting January 8th from Skyline to Atwood Association for logging. PLEASE BE ALERT AND WATCH OUT FOR TRUCKS AND TRAIL CONDITIONS.
Surround yourself in lake effect snow and ride a different direction each day! We are located 12 mi NW of Newberry (Halfway to Lk Superior) and 7 miles south of Pine Stump Junction. Between Grand Marais and Paradise. Tahquamenon Area Snowmobile Association grooms over 125 miles of trails that interconnect to hundreds of miles of trails groomed by local associations

Looks like we are starting off the week to a great start. Temps are in the teens today with a slight chance of snow. Our temps for the next 10 days will be in the teens and single digits with a chance of snow. Our trails are in the best shape they have been in for years……come up and enjoy some great riding.
The Gogebic Range Trail Authority – Reports all trails are groomed and are in good to very good condition. Trail 2 in Wakefield has an issue; the banks were pushed back by the county which leaves a big drop from the trail. The GRTA was going to talk with someone from Wakefield to see what can be done to resolve the problem I will keep you posted. All trails have a firm base and are in good shape. We have gotten word from the DNR trail 11S will be closed due to logging this winter.
