Groomers will all be hitting the trails to get them back into shape after the weekend traffic. Could use some more snow, and the forecast calls for that possibility throughout the week.
Gogebic Range Trail Authority: Groomers are out both day and night and all trails are being groomed including 2-8-160-11N and 11S. Overall conditions Good-some very good, some fair. corners may be icy – expect some crossings to be bare-use extra caution when crossing streets, roads and driveways.
From the Lake Gogebic Area-Groomers are all out double grooming all trails.. trails range from good to very good.
Watersmeet groomers are out and reporting trails are solid and conditions are fair to good.
And here’s good news for our Trail 2 East riders-the Marenisco Mini Mart is open and gas is again available there.
IN ALL AREAS:
Please slow down when riding through towns. We’re starting to get some complaints so let’s nip it in the bud before it become a problem.
TOO MANY SERIOUS ACCIDENTS are in the news this year. Many are alcohol and speed related. We want you to have a great time on our trails here in Big Snow Country, so please use your good common sense and save your drinking for after the ride.

ICE: Let us reiterate, there is no such thing as "safe" ice.
If you choose to ride on a body of water, be sure you check with locals in the specific area you intend to ride and get current information on conditions in that area. When you ride on ice, you are doing so at your own risk.

WATCH FOR GROOMERS Keep in mind the groomers are out both day and night, so watch for them, and PLEASE pull over or at least slow down and wait for the operator to signal you by whenever you see them.
SIGN VANDALISM RESULTING IN SERIOUS SITUATION
Expect to see more patrols on the trails due to a recent rash of sign vandalism incidents…we’re hearing cameras also may be enlisted in order to apprehend those responsible. If you see any suspicious activity, please call the DNR at 800-292-7800.
