Conditions: N/A Updated: 04 / 18 By: Sledheads of Frederic |
| Trail Report: Still very rideable , I would say at least thru today and maybe tomorrow depending on the temps. The snow is really starting to settle and get more packy. Sleds were out and about yesterday and all pics below are from yesterday. I headed out for another ride yesterday afternoon and Derrick from Lainesburg showed up to ride right when I was leaving so we headed out and found incredible untouched snow with 18 to 24 inches in most of the spots and we were never more than 3 miles from Sledheads. We were out about 2 hours and did a high quality 21 mile ride. I even managed to get stuck a couple of times and that makes it all the more memorable. All riders I talked to yesterday were reporting great riding. The state trails are getting packed down now but are still white. Not really any prediction for new snow so as I have said before this might really be it….I have rode more in the past week than I did all season. Its now 9:40 a.m. on Wednesday morning and there were 2 riders on sleds sitting here that had just rode up from Grayling and here just for a day trip. I drove by the parking lot 3 miles west of grayling yesterday and there were 3 trailers there and it was a sight as you could tell all 3 of them had a hard time getting into there and one of them looked pretty stuck. I still might do a quick ride today just to say I did. Thanks for checking in. Pete <> Visit Sledheads of Frederic Website >>>> <> --- Complete Report |

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.

As of 9am CST Friday Morning trails are rated GOOD system wide, many spots still excellent, see link below for full report! Our typical thin areas are there, but with 9 degrees last night and the groomer running from 5pm until 10am today and also repeating that tonight will provide Saturday with great riding conditions (all things considered). We worked diligently to cover the FEW bare spots with fresh snow and will continue tonight. There is a TON of snow in the woods so we have a lot to borrow and work with grooming wise. John Dee Snow Central has the bullseye on us for 4-8″+ early next week so we are smiling with current March riding conditions! See specific sections below for detailed reports. PLEASE STAY ON THE TRAIL! PLEASE DON’T STEAL OUR TRAIL SIGNS. Hard to believe we have to continue echoing these issues, we are so lucky we have some of the most friendly landowners around.

Forecast is looking more seasonal coming up! This weekend will be about 50 so I’ll be riding in perfect conditions! Looking past the weekend the weather is calling for almost 60 degrees! I’m pretty sure if you want to ride after this weekend you might have to trailer to a shady spot and stay on the non sun facing hills! I still think I’ll get a May ride in but I really feel it’s going to go fast! The sun has a lot of power now and it stays light till 8pm or later so things will go down hill in a hurry! If you remember a few posts back I said when it gets to upper 50’s and 60’s it really kills snow FAST and that’s what it looks like after this coming weekend! Today through The weekend I would say would be great off trail riding! After that....... I don’t know! The creeks waterfalls and rivers should start flowing big time! My favorite riding times! There’s a ton of snow to play in right now and that 3-4 feet of HARD base will finally soften up along with this last 21” we officially got from this last storm things should be perfect for ME!

| 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.

| Sidnaw / Bruce Crossing -
Conditions: Fair Updated: 03 / 13 By: Sno Valley Riders Snowmobile Club |
| Trail Report: Groomer Report: We did get around an inch of snow overnight. Still not quite enough to run the groomers. The forecast is all over the place but we get out there as soon as the conditions allow. There are many bare spots on the “grade” and some of the corners that were washed out and down to ice are now dirt. There still are some very nice areas but the full sun is taking it’s toll on the trails, we need snow! Watch out for the icy corners! Bottom line, slow down and think late season conditions. The area from the trail #3 south intersection on the grade, trail #8, past Bruce Crossing to the trail #3 north intersection is very thin with gravel in many areas. The trail between these two intersections gets a lot of traffic and is in a low snow fall area. 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 FAIR on the south end and GOOD on the north end. Trail #8 from Ewen to trail #3 North is FAIR. 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 FAIR, GOOD in the woods. Trail #8 from the trail #3 South intersection to Trout Creek is FAIR. Trail #8 from Trout Creek to Kenton is FAIR. Trail #8 from Kenton to Sidnaw is GOOD, better as you go east. Trail #8/15 from Sidnaw to the trail #109 intersection is GOOD. 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 |

Road crossings, road routes and in town is really tough. We still have sections that remain in good condition, however, they can be hard to get to for the faint of heart. Evaluating closing the trails to preserve some private landowners grass. Trail 2 from Hurley to Ramsay US-2 Crossing: Overall rating: POOR Last groomed 3/2.

The first 2 miles of the trail as it heads south towards Wisconsin from Trail 2 is plowed due to logging. Please yield to all commercial truck traffic. Lake Gogebic Area Groomers Report 3/19 Sled Season 2018 is on the books –but what a great season it has been! Our weather forecast over the next few days is anything but positive for our rapidly deteriorating trails, and groomers have packed it up for the season. Many trails are in not rideable condition, but if you are out there riding – please use caution as wet spots will re-develop with melting snow. Delivering some of the best riding in the Country is not something that happens easily or overnight. It a long-term group effort fueled by a team of truly dedicated, hard-working and knowledgeable (stubborn) people. It’s a team of people who you can count on to GSD when it really matters and it’s those people who make the U.P. a unique and special place to visit and live. Thank you to everyone who played a part in making this season a success and a big show of gratitude to Mother Nature for her fabulous appearance! No matter how big or small your role may have been – your role is important – and it all makes a difference! On behalf of our Gogebic Area Groomers, all our local area businesses, volunteers, members and supporters (Moonshine Riders) – we also want to thank everyone who came to ride our Gogebic Area trails this season! We know that you have a choice of where to ride – we are glad that you choose Lake Gogebic – and we look forward to seeing you again next year! Watersmeet White Thunder Riders Groomer Report Snowmobiling Season 2018 seems to be over – technically it’s not over until March 31 but there is no snow in the forecast and we are down to gravel in many places! We had a good season even with the lower than normal snowfall amount and this doesn’t mean we couldn’t have a freak storm but it doesn’t look good. If you do come up to ride there are many wet areas so use caution and please remember there are restrictions for no off trail riding (forest roads are allowed) in the Ottawa National Forest We have a small but truly dedicated and hard-working team that spent countless hours to provide the best trails they could. Drivers and Trail Boss THANK YOU! THANK YOU! And to all of you, thank you for your support and encouragement, through the season is truly appreciated! --- Complete Report |
