ONTONAGON AREA UPDATE via North Country Snowmobile Club UP >> 02/06
Trails are rated in good to excellent condition. Finally, we are not resetting the trail base completely every night. Traffic is subsiding! Thank you Ontonagon Scott, White Pine Nick, and North Coast Steve for your time last night fixing trails up for our guests. We have been relieved to see the lack moguls on our trail system, thanks in large part to our amazing mechanic team! Please have a safe Super Bowl weekend, ride right, ride sober.

ONTONAGON AREA UPDATE via Scott’s Superior Inn and Cabins >> 02/05
Ontonagon County Snowmobile Trail Report
We have a ton of snow! Ontonagon County is buried in the white gold, and conditions are excellent for riding. Scattered lake effect snow is expected daily through the weekend, keeping trails refreshed. However, with bitter cold temperatures hanging on, be sure to dress appropriately and prepare for extreme winter conditions.
Our trails are groomed daily, providing some of the best riding conditions you’ll find. If you’re looking for smooth trails and fewer crowds, midweek riding is ideal. On weekends, be sure to get out early—traffic picks up quickly, and trails will start to get bumpy by midday.
Enjoy the ride, stay safe, and respect private property and trail rules. See you on the trails!
