Brent Mason shared these photos from yesterday and said, “Our day started in Calumet and headed to Vansville Bar for gas. With the temps already 39 degrees and sunny the trails were really soft and starting to whoop out but that’s to be expected with the warm temps. We then headed to Copper Harbor and the trails held up remarkably well for how warm and soft the snow was. We then headed back to Vansville for gas again and then to the Fitz for dinner in Eagle River. Our meal was absolutely amazing at the Fitz . We left around dark and road to Eagle Harbor and that trail was a little whooped up but overall really good shape. Trails were already starting to firm back up. We then got back on trail 3 headed back towards Calumet and Trail 3 was remarkably really nice with the amount of traffic that was on it today. We had the wonderful pleasure of coming across one of the awesome Keweenaw Snowmobile Club groomer operators that gave us a sweet smooth ride back to Calumet. Thank you Keweenaw snowmobile club!🤟
I think tomorrow the trails are going to be absolutely awesome with the cooler temps coming in.”
Sounds like an awesome day, Brent! Thank you so much for sharing! Agreed that trails should be even better today with the colder temps and grooming operations last night!
Note:
Trail 122, 124 are closed for the remainder of the season
Trail 3 from Dollar Bay to Lake Linden and Trail 120/121 Freda Loop are closed
The trail spur to High Rock Bay is very rough – not recommended
Trail 130 was not groomed last night and was pretty whooped up yesterday
All other trails were groomed from Toivola to Copper Harbor with the exception of across the Mountain.
Vansville Bar is not allowing staging in the lot

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. 🌞

We wish to thank Jim F. for removing 5 large trees off of Trail 3 yesterday! Unfortunately there may be more after today's wind. #ontonagon #keweenaw #westernup #miweather
