Keweenaw Peninsula Trail Report – 02/20
It’s a beautiful (if you’re not a snowmobiler) spring morning on the Keweenaw! Blue skies, sunshine and temps to hit the upper 30s. Warm temperatures and very heavy traffic have taken a toll on the trails, but there are still areas where the riding is good….stick to the high ground, and in the wooded areas. Looks like temperatures will fall later in the week, and there is a chance of snow too – don’t give up on winter yet! Via This is the Keweenaw trail system report for Monday, February 20, 2012. The snowmobile trails from Twin Lakes to Copper Harbor are open and groomers are out working on them. Trails are in poor to good condition. Remember to watch out for the groomers when you’re out on the trails….they have the right of way!!! Please watch out for deer on the trails too. There is logging on a portion of Trail 133. Please be aware that if you snowmobile on U.S. Coast Guard property you could face federal trespass charges. 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. Snowfall & Weather Report:
