Right now we are in a let’s wait for more snow….Temps are cold but we need more snow to get the trails in good riding condition. Snow is in the forecast everyday…but it is wait to see how much!!!!
GOGEBIC RANGE TRAIL AUTHORITY are out grooming getting the trails back into shape. Trails are poor to fair expect bare spots closer to the towns. Again conditions are going to be early riding…we need more snow.
Lake Gogebic Area groomers went out Friday night before the freeze so they are reporting all trails are in fair shape. Again more snow is needed to get the trails in good shape.
Watersmeet Area is reporting that there groomers are on hold until we get more snow. They are reporting trails are in poor conditon.
