Trail Reports


Keweenaw Peninsula Trail Report – Evert’s Snowmobile Rentals – 12/27

The snowmobile trails from TwinLakes to CopperHarbor are open, and groomers are out working on them. Trails are reported to range from poor condition with a few wet areas in towns and near the lake to very good condition in high snow areas.

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.

Gaylord Area Trail Report – Ray’s Retreat Country Inn – 12/26

Finally got out on the trails myself. I was very surprised – we had a good fun ride!!
We jumped onto trail 4 just up from the motel. This trail was in GOOD shape. It
was smooth riding for most of it – a few corners and narrow areas of chatter bumps.
Plenty of snow. Roller coaster hills on Mancelona Rd had plenty of snow. I was also surprised that the trail that is directly along Mancelona Rd also has plenty of snow
covering it – although that section had some bumps.

It was just such good fun to get out and ride. For most of our ride it was great
riding.

Trail 7 is beat up. It runs directly along Old 27 and catches all the salt and dirt
blown onto the trail. Along with the fact that it gets more riders on it. It is down to dirt in several places, but you can skirt around and catch snow in those areas too.

We need snow, but for what we have I was surprised at the good ride we enjoyed.
