| Trail Report: It's not what we want to hear, currently 32 and sunny in downtown Frederic Monday morning and almost noon. Lots of sun and upper 30s for this week and the weather said 47 predicted for Saturday. So just as in years past it is not looking good. Darn the people along the east coast and my buddy SAK down in North Carolina have all the snow and no sleds, lucky them. There were several people that stopped in yesterday afternoon on their way home from the U.P. and they were reporting good riding up by Brimley & Grand Marais. Trail permit sales have boomed up from only 1 to about a total of 7 now. I did have the first machine of the year in yesterday but as you can see from the pic its not really what I would count as first sled of the season. You just never know what you will see Scotty Bobby pop up on. But as his motto goes, always wear a helmet always……Updates will be when something good happens again….Thanks for checking in.

Today, I am happy to report that the South Gaylord (trail #7 area) had a few inches of snow last night, and it's been snowing at a steady to heavy fall for much of the day. I haven't seen the groomer yet today but he usually comes by twice a day. Conditions should be great for snowmobiling this weekend but expect it to be busy.

I see they had another 5 to 7 inches north of Seney last night. This is definetly the year for the u.p. riding. I had to go up to Lakes of the north again last night to show a home, (seems like I have been up there a lot lately) and I have to say I am still surprised at how wintery it is up there. I drove into the Settings to see if they were open and they were not but there were 2 sleds sitting there and they said they had been having a good ride. Their pic is below. After I was done I was up there and I drove Crooked Lake Road to Sand Lake rd and then went to the Hide Away at Starvation Lake. The snow on those rodes was 100 percent rideable and looked very good to me and that’s not to mention all the other two tracks that could be ridden in there. I have to say I was thinking I shouldn’t have drove that as if I would have got stuck back there I would be there till May. I managed to make it thru. At the Hideaway were the 2 sleds I saw earlier at the settings and 4 other sleds. Turned out the 4 were the same sleds that were at lunch at the Frederic Inn earlier in the day. They had been riding all day and were happy with that. They were from Ohio and they said someone had called and told them that I had put the pic on of their sleds at lunch time. It sure is tempting for me to head to the u.p. myself…….Thanks for checking in. Pete http://frederic-mi.com/category/trail-conditions/ <> --- Complete Report --- More Report Links |

| Trail Report: Greetings, Not my typical intro I'll admit, but there's not much sledding going on in this area right now, or from what the forecast is showing, in the immediate future either. According to said forecast in the next 10 days 3 are supposed to be just marginally below freezing, 2 are looking like rain and the rest are Sunny. There's nothing that looks remotely like weather that will repair the damages done by yesterday's blast furnace. There's lots of dirt showing at all of the crossings and water is beginning to pond as well. Wish I had better news but it is what it is and unfortunately wishing hasn't done so pretty good this year. Time to move a groomer away from my shop door and replace it with one of the Walleye boats in order to get ready for a season that is generally more reliable than our recent Winters. We will kick out another report to either sign off or let you know if we get a significant snow event.

The groomers were out over the weekend and panned. They will go out again, once we have sufficient snow. We will update you as soon as something happens. Trail 120 and 121 that goes around Freda is closed for the season and will not be reopened. As well as trail 3 from Dollar Bay to Lake Linden. You can still get to Dollar Bay by way of Hancock and to Lake Linden by way of Calumet. Trails 122, 124, 133 are closed until the ground freezes, Currently the water holes are too deep. Trails 132 north of Lac Labelle 133, and 134 are closed for logging and will reopen once they are done. Trail 3 from Clear Lk Junction to Copper Harbor is TEMPORARILY closed for logging. It is scheduled to be opened by December 15th and will remain open for the remainder of the season. The Houghton/Hancock bridge will be closed until the end of shipping season, so the mat will not go down for a few more weeks Any trail usage should be done with extreme caution as there is very low snow cover and there are rocks, stumps, branches, wet areas and hazards that have not been identified. <> Keweenaw Trail Reports on Facebook >>>> <> <> Keweenaw Convention & Visitors Bureau Website >>>> <> Western & Southern UP Snow Reports on Facebook >>>> <> --- Complete Report --- More Report Links |

| Trail Report: Yesterday we had blizzard conditions followed by brief light rain followed by more snow. We measured 22" (deeper snow north) of dense snow on the ground this morning. On and off trail people are reporting "awesome" conditions and "the best we've seen." We have heard this from multiple groups heading in all directions. This morning, we are seeing additional accumulating snow and temps will remain cold through the weekend. We are not making daily updates to the trail report unless there is a change in condition. I will not update trail conditions over the weekend since temps will remain steady and trails are perfect. Trail conditions will change minute by minute, trail by trail, based on the amount of traffic since the trail was last groomed. Groomers are out doing their thing and conditions are favorable for them, as well. I am thankful for all of the dedication these people put into our trail systems. Please remember that due to the length of our trails it takes 12-16 hours to groom one way! 1/8/17 Boy! I really don't know what to tell you other than it hasn't stopped snowing. We have had accumulation every day for 5 days and measured two feet on the ground today. Riders have been all smiles, extending stays and reporting awesome conditions on and off trail. There are still come concerns regarding low lying areas to the south, so please follow groomer reports in regards to swamp/south trails. This is a low traffic period (prior to MLK weekend) and trails are beautiful. Things typically pick up this coming weekend and remain busy until the end of the season. You never know what the future will bring, but my hope is this pattern of beautiful lake effect will continue. Local clubs (Grand Marais sno trails, Seney, Paradise Area Night Riders and Taqhamamenon Area Snowmobile Assoc) are reporting trail closures, yellow flags or a section of trail that is closed. Please educate yourselves before you ride and ride safely. *** Trail report ends here *** Read below for vacancy :) We are receiving a lot of calls for the upcoming weekends. To save on time and phone calls- This week we have openings through Friday night, but no vacancy Saturday or Sunday 1/14 or 15. Openings resume Monday-Thursday with no vacancy 1/20 or 21. Vacancy resumes 1/22. Thank you! Ride right from your door in 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.

Lots going on this week-end with the I-500 in the SOO and a bean pot down in Walloon Village at the Barrelback, if your in the area, stop in and have some great soup.

| Trail Report: 793337994107970 Hello Everyone! We groomed slash panned Trail 43/8 Friday to the Bear Trap. In some places there is probably 16 inches of snow and other places there was probably 8 to 10 inches. There is one detour up on the grade, the same one as last year. We are still packing in the base. It is still thin. We groomed Petrol Rd. into Melstrand. There is one water hole on Petrol Rd. You have to ride thru it and it’s probably at least 10” deep and 6’ long. On Tuesday we got 10” of snow in some spots, the snow got mixed in places with the sand so we had to cut deep enough into the trail to get the chatter bumps out left from the ATV’s. Friday there was 4-5” of new snow and we panned and packed in where it was set nice from our Tuesday efforts. We had to groom in a few places that needed some structural cutting. We pushed back the snow from the road crossings to set the standard for the season. If maintained it should help with keeping the snowmobilers from dragging the snow back into the roads. We still need more snow, it was pretty busy here at the station all day Saturday. There’s a slight warmup this coming up weekend so watch the reports. I will keep you updated as much as possible on here and if you’re on Facebook follow Seney Snowmobile Association or Mater’s Stop N Go for updates as well! Hope to see you all soon! -Randy Dunn <> Via Seney Snowmobile Association On Facebook >>>> <> Via Mater's Stop -N- Go Gas Station On Facebook >>>> <> --- Complete Report --- More Report Links |
| Sidnaw / Bruce Crossing -
Conditions: N/A Updated: 12 / 02 By: Sno Valley Riders Snowmobile Club |
| Trail Report: Trail report: The trials may be officially open but are hardly rideable, there is only a few inches of snow on the ground and the wet areas are not frozen yet. Ride at your own risk! Some areas are not accessible with equipment due to the extreme wet conditions this year and have not been cleared yet. Please DO NOT climb the “Military Hill” from the highway, US 45, to the fence, we have ongoing erosion issues there and the hill climbers are adding to the problem. YOU COULD CAUSE THIS MAJOR TRAIL TO BE CLOSED IF YOU CONTINUE! Watch for the groomers, they take up most of the trail and have the right of way! Please pull over and DIM your lights for them, they have a long night out there. Remember, you can get off the trail, the groomer can not. Please ride on your own side of the trail and STOP at the stop signs! Trail #3 North to Rockland is POOR, very wet. Trail #8 from Ewen to trail #3 North is POOR. Trail #3/8 East from Bruce Crossing to the trail #3 South intersection is POOR. Trail #3/8 West from Bruce Crossing to the trail #3 North intersection is POOR. Trail #3 South from the railroad grade to the CC road is POOR. Trail #8 from the trail #3 South intersection to Trout Creek is POOR. Trail #8 from Trout Creek to Kenton is POOR. Trail #8 from Kenton to Sidnaw is POOR. Trail #8/15 from Sidnaw to the trail #109 intersection is POOR. When I report “base” that is the depth of the un-groomed snow on my yard South of Sidnaw. There is no possible way to accurately report what the depth is under your snowmobile on the groomed trail, it varies widely. Have a fun and safe trip, thank you for riding our trails and visiting our local businesses! <> --- Complete Report --- More Report Links |
