Sault Ste. Marie Trail Report – 12/04
SAULT STE. MARIE UPDATE via Sault Ste. Marie Snowmobile Association – 12/04 12/4 update. For now, trail 8 from the Soo to Brimley and 889 in Bay Mills are the only truly rideable trails in our area, and maybe around the airport in Kinross, but I need to verify that. There are many forest service roads in the Raco and Strongs area that I bet are pretty fun right now. Of course, be safe and know where you’re riding is legal to do so if you do venture off trail. There are likely water holes and stumps, downed branches in those areas so use caution, as always. We will keep updating as things progress. Have a great evening! 👍🏼❄️🥶 <> <> Sault Ste. Marie Snowmobile Association Facebook Page <> Sault Ste. Marie Snowmobile Association Trail Report on MSA <> WEATHER UPDATE via US National Weather Service Marquette Michigan >> A much cloudier day over the UP compared to yesterday! Light snow showers have been observed today with only a half inch so far at the office here in Negaunee Township. Despite the light nature of the snow, it has been efficient at reducing visibility, with below 1 mile visibility being reported at some locations this morning, so take caution while traveling today! #miweather #keweenaw #westernup #marquette #munising #seney #newberry #soo #straitsarea WEATHER UPDATE via US National Weather Service Marquette Michigan >> Scattered lake effect snow showers will develop across western into north central Upper Michigan today. Snow accumulations today will be an inch or less, except 1 to 2 inches in the high terrain of Baraga and Marquette counties. The snow showers will diminish later tonight. Attention then turns to a widespread system snow that will develop from west to east across Upper Michigan later Saturday afternoon and evening. The snow will continue Saturday night, then diminish during Sunday morning. Snow accumulations across Upper Michigan by late Sunday morning should range from 2 to 5 inches. In addition, gusty west winds of 35 to 50 mph are possible across the Keweenaw Peninsula Sunday night and Monday morning. #miweather #keweenaw #westernup #marquette #munising #seney #newberry #soo #straitsareaScattered lake effect snow showers will develop across western into north central Upper Michigan today.

Not much new to share tonight. It snowed pretty much all day in the Soo, still holding around a little over 2’ here. No groomers were out today, but will be again tomorrow evening. Again, we are warning folks to avoid the city trails, as well as 49 from the Soo to Kinross. Those trails are wet and dangerous, and simply need more time. Nothing we can do but wait for more cold temps.
We have volunteers headed out to check trails on sleds tomorrow, specifically around the airport in Kinross and out west on 472 to 480 in the Spile Dam. We’ll report what they see when we hear back. Postings From Regional Pages On Facebook
