This heavy snowfall gives you, the rider, the very best conditions and trails. Our new website is www.explorewesternup.com We moved to a new location 405N Lake St. Ironwood, MI 49938.
Groomers are not grooming at this time. We need lower temps and some more snow. There is open dirt on the trails in places and the trails are in poor condition. Streets are all bare.
“I think it’s safe to say that snowmobile season is over for this season. It is suppose to be cooler for this weekend, but just for a couple of days with a chance of flurries. I won’t say that there isn’t a chance for a late March snowstorm, but I do not think the groomers will be able to go out anymore due to the wetness at this point of the season.”
Well, it is that time of the year….the temps are on the rise. The snow has melted and the groomers stopped running March 8th. Without a good amount of new snow, this looks like we may be done. If conditions become favorable again, we can groom until the last day of March or even into April, weather and DNR permitting.
