Keweenaw Peninsula Trail Report – 03/07

Supposed to be fairly warm this week, with a chance of BIG snow mid-week. Snowmobile trails remain in great shape once you are out of town – still time for that last ride! Cross country trails at Chassell, Maasto, MTU & Swedtown still great shape! Lots of great spring skiing and riding still available.

The snowmobile trails from TwinLakes to CopperHarbor are open, and groomers are out working on them. Trails are reported to range from poor condtion in towns, near the lake and in low snow areas to good to very good condition in the woods. Please watch for icy trail corners.

Remember to watch out for the groomers when you’re out on the trails…….they have the right of way!!
There is logging on a short portion of Trail 133 between Gay and Lac La Belle.

The Keweenaw Convention & Visitors Bureau asks that you stay on the trails, STAY OFF THE ICE, respect private property, do not drink and drive, and above all else, please, drive safely. The signs on the snowmobile trails are there for the riders’ safety. Please, DO NOT remove or destroy these signs.

Keweenaw Peninsula Trail Report – 02/25

Keweenaw is still in the deep freeze – 5 today. Light snow falling – should help with/sugar snow on the trails. Groomers still out – trails range from poor in town, near the lake & in notoriously low snow areas to good (pretty darn good, they tell me) in the woods & high ground areas. Lots lots of traffic. Next week?…snow every day, temps no higher than 25. Plenty of good riding & skiing left.

*During the CopperDog 150 sled dog race on March 4 – 6 the Department of Natural Resources and Environment recommends that snowmobilers take advantage of alternate routes which are available to reach all destinations safely and with minimal delays. Snowmobilers will be discouraged from using active race trail segments while that particular segment of the race is in progress.*
