Keweenaw Peninsula Trail Report – 01/18
<> KEWEENAW PENINSULA UPDATE via Keweenaw Trail Reports…. It has been amazing conditions for riding Michigan’s Keweenaw Peninsula over the past couple of weeks! It’s snowing with a forecast that ranges with anywhere from 4-10 inches right now! All trails have been groomed in the last 24 hrs, with the exception of the spur to High Rock Bay. Cullen Keath and crew were just up for their annual trip to ride the Keweenaw Snowmobile Club trails! A few in their crew rented their sleds from Copper Country Rentals again this year. They said it was a great experience renting from them! ( Copper Country rentals is conveniently located right on trail 17 in Calumet at The Trailside Lodge. Cullen shared these photos and details about their trip, “This was our second annual trip to the Keweenaw Peninsula! It was an awesome 2 days of riding with 275 miles total! The first day ride was from Calumet to Rockland, we had planned to go to Bergland, but there wasn’t enough time. We enjoyed the day of riding in the beautiful weather. We took a break at The Mosquito Inn! The second day we rode from Calumet to Eagle Harbor. It was a beautiful view along the Lake Superior shoreline and of the Eagle Harbor Lighthouse. We then headed to Brockway, one of my favorite things to do on the snowmobile! We stopped to eat lunch at The Mariner North. The food is SO good and they have a GREAT staff! We left High Rock and headed on a long ride to the Gay Bar in Gay, Michigan. It was a great trail ride! If you would like real-time information on grooming operations, please download Groomer Tracker app and subscribe to the Keweenaw Snowmobile Keweenaw Snowmobile Club trails! There is a nominal fee of $10 and half of that goes straight to the club to help support the trail grooming! <> KEWEENAW PENINSULA UPDATE via Western Up Trail Reports…. Getting hit with some significant snow right now here in the Western UP. Looks to me like it will give us between 10″-12″ before it’s said and done but that’s my prediction. <> <> <> <> Keweenaw Trail Reports on Facebook >>>> <> WEATHER UPDATE via US National Weather Service Marquette Michigan >> Light lake effect snow continues over the northwest snow belts today and today before intensifying Thursday night to this weekend.

From Copper Harbor, we rode out to High Rock Bay. The last part of trail 134 had a lot of moguls , but so worth it for the view of Lake Superior!
So grateful to all of the Groomer Operators that gave us such amazing conditions to ride! Thank you!”
We are so happy you enjoyed your annual trip to the Keweenaw! Thank you SO much for sharing your beautiful photos and videos with us Cullen!

The first polar front will sweep through the Midwest on Thanksgiving day bringing temperatures 10 to 15 degrees below average. Lows below zero are expected for some across the north and in the single digits down to I80. Highs this weekend will only be in the single digits and teens for areas down to I80. Dangerous wind chills of -20 degrees or colder are increasingly likely, especially north of I90. The graphic below shows the temperatures on Sunday morning.
Another polar front will move through next week bringing even colder temperatures. Expect reinforcing shots of very cold air over the next couple of weeks. #miweather #keweenaw #westernup #marquette #munising #seney #newberry #soo #straitsarea #petoskey #gaylord #cadillac #traversecity~First Polar Front Thanksgiving~

Before anyone gets on the "SEE CLIMATE CHANGE IS FAKE" train... one of these below average maps DOES NOT negate the other 500 above average ones. Trends, folks. Trends. Nothing is a straight line. The warming temperature trend line is full of peaks and valleys with an overall increasing trend. 🙂 #miweather #keweenaw #westernup #marquette #munising #seney #newberry #soo #straitsarea #petoskey #gaylord #cadillac #traversecityI need to post this image again because WOW. I can't recall the last time nearly all of the United States was forecast to be below average.

After Thanksgiving, a large portion of the U.S. will likely see below normal temperatures into early December. And of course, there's southern Florida. 🌞
