Happy New Year!!! Snow showers in the forecast for the next few days. Still reporting early season riding poor to fair.

GOGEBIC RANGE TRAIL AUTHORITY Reports Trails 2&8 were groomed- conditions are poor to fair. Trail 2 from Ironwood to Wakefield have bare spots so use caution…otherwise the trail is in fair shape. Trails 11N, 11S and 160 are not being groomed at this time. We need more snow. Hang in there!!!!

GOGEBIC AREA GROOMERS Lake Gogebic groomers report all trails are groomed conditions are fair. Groomers will be out day and night so please pull over if you see the groomers. Do expect some brown spot for the snow is thin…but all the wet spots are pretty well froze. The trails are signed, brushed and just waiting for more snow.

U.P.THUNDER RIDERS OF WATERSMEET will not go out until we get more snow.

Remeber it is early season riding with some wet spots, so use caution. As always have a happy and safe holiday!!!

You can take a look at web cams throughout the area to check out the conditions for yourself. Find links on our website at westernup.info.
