Western
U.P., Michigan,
Snowmobiling and Snowmobile Trail Condition Reports
This unique place has
it all! I know you have heard this phrase before, but browse through
our web site and see what we mean. We have a change in seasons that
is hard to believe. How can a place covered with 25 feet of snow
have such beautiful summers? And yet this same place has fall colors
that are unmatched. Springtime fishing allows you to pick a lake,
out of hundreds of lakes, and catch your quarry.

It's beginning to look a lot like ...winter and Christmas. Variable amounts of snow from about 4" in the Watersmeet area --8" here on the far western end, to up to a foot in th high country by Lake Gogebic. The ground still needs to firm up it is still really wet. On the upside temps will be in the 20's for the next couple of days which will begin to help alleviate the wetness problem. Both the Gogebic Range Trail Authority and the Lake Gogebic Groomers are out panking --or rolling the trails today getting them ready for riding. Watersmeet will let us know when they can get out.
We do have snow in the forecast for the next couple of days. Be patient just a tad longer... Remeber it is early season riding with wet spots, so use caution.

It’s beginning to look a lot like…winter and Christmas. We have about 7" of snow on the ground with a chance of 2" to 4" today and 1" to 3" tonight.

On the upside, the overnight temps in the forecast will be in the low teens to the single digits which will help alleviate the wetness problem.
The Gogebic Range Trail Authority Grooming Club is planning to start prepping tomorrow. Watersmeet will let us know when they can get out, and the Lake Gogebic area will give me a report later on today.
