February 17th, 2014 – Well, we’re finally having a bit of that mid winter thaw that usually occurs in January or early February each year. Temps are expected to top off in the low to mid 30’s, but just for a few days mid week. Grooming will most likely be restricted to nights only during this warm up to prevent loss of snow on the trails. However, it looks like we’re heading back into winter in time for this next weekend with highs in the teens and single digits and lows below zero with a snow storm expected later in the week. We have plenty of snow on the ground with an added accumulation over the last couple of days, including today, of about 4 to 6-inches of new snow. There is still a lot of great riding to be had this year so pack your bags, load up your sled and come on up for some great riding on the best trails in the area!

Be sure to pick up a copy of the newest edition of the Gogebic Times, put out by the Lake Gogebic Area Chamber of Commerce, which can be found at most local businesses. Not only will you find a snowmobile map and a lake map but there are some really great articles about snowmobile riding in our beautiful area. Not to mention some really great articles about the Lake Gogebic area and lots of great information for year round fun. Take one or two home with you, there free of cost to you.

That’s all for now from Carolyn at the Hoop. I will keep you posted as often as conditions change. For additional information about the Lake Gogebic area we invite you to visit the only official website of the Lake Gogebic Area Chamber of Commerce at www.LakeGogebicArea.com or call us at 1-888-464-3242 (888-GOGEBIC). From all of us here at Lake Gogebic have a great ride as well as a safe ride.
