Our Big Snow Country official Season Snowfall to date is 113.7". Conditionss remain about the same-could use snow-know it’s coming and the sooner the better. We’ll keep you posted.
Groomers are out in all areas working to keep the trails in as good shape as possible. For the most part calling conditions good tho there are areas where the riding will be fair.
Gogebic Range Trail Authority: Conditions good altho you may run into an occassional bare spot. Grooming is ongoing- 11 N is groomed-On 11S you still need to watch out for Logging Trucks on that quarter-mile narrow stretch. The trucks have the right of way so pull over if you see them. Signs are posted in that area…the Trail is being groomed. Trails 2-8 and 160 are all groomed or in the process of being groomed.
From the Lake Gogebic Area-everything is being groomed and in good shape. IMPORTANT: There are Logging Trucks in the vicinity of the junction of 102 AND 8-W. You MAY NOT ride plowed roads-you MUST observe the snowmobile trail signs. Stay on the trails and if you see a logging truck, pull over immediately.
Watersmeet groomers reporting trails groomed daily and conditions fair to good.
IN ALL AREAS:
After a number of close calls, you need to be aware groomers can be out any time of the day or night, so PLEASE pull over or at least slow down and wait for the operator to signal you by whenever you see them.
We want you to have lots of fun and a great time…therefore, your safety is our #1 priority.

THINGS YOU SHOULD KNOW
MAP ERROR
There are errors regarding the location of Paulding, MI, which is a new advertiser on this year’s Trail Map. The red dot (#85)was mistakenly placed 1/2" south of where it should be and there also should be a GAS icon at Paulding. Snowmobile access to Paulding is via plowed County Rd-shoulders only.
ABOUT THE ICE:
It’s time for our usual caution. There is no such thing as "safe ice" due to underwater currents. If you choose to go out, be sure you talk to locals where you intend to ride for specific information about the ice depth and other factors…be aware you will be riding at your own risk.
