THE GOGEBIC RANGE TRAIL AUTHORITY REPORTS:
01/18/2018

Trail 2 from Hurley to Ramsay US-2 Crossing:
Grooming was scheduled for last night. The trail is in good to the very good condition. Thin spots on trail exist, by the transfer station east of Walmart the trail is getting icy corners. Slow down and use caution. The rail-bed trail ENDS on the east side of the Keystone Bridge. The club grooms the bridge to maintain it for local access. The “old” trail to Wakefield is closed east of Verona Rd. and anyone caught riding it will be ticketed.

Trial 2 from Ramsay Crossing to Wakefield:
This was last groomed on the night of the 17th. Overall rating is good to fair. The trail is thin in the lower elevations and corners are icy. Please stay on your side of the trail, many near-miss accidents due to sleds on the wrong side of the trail. Please ride safely.

Trail 2 from Wakefield to Marenisco:
This was to be groomed last night. Overall rating is good to very good. Watch for icy corners from Wakefield to US HWY 2 trail crossing. Snow is thinner as you travel from Wakefield to Marenisco.

Trail 8 from Bingos to Tula Crossing:
This was last groomed on the 17th early a.m. Overall rating is good to very good. It is a wide seasonal county road that is not plowed and makes a fun trail to ride. Trail 8 where the GRTA groomer turns around is finally groomed by the Gogebic Area Groomers.

Trail 160 from Walmart to Montreal River(WI):
This was groomed on the 18th. Overall rating is good to very good. You will also encounter some active logging near the Lake Road area, please go slow, logging trucks have the right of way. Please remember to stay on the trail!!!! Do not go off the trails and ride on farmers fields, this can lose easement for our trails. This trail is very scenic so enjoy!!

Trial 11S:
This was last groomed on the 17th. Overall rating is fair to very good. There are still some thin spots on this trail and still needs some brushing. Keep speeds slow as you travel the southern half of it, once you cross the bridge within 2 miles there are some rough spots.
