Trail Report – : Lake Gogebic | Bergland, Michigan – March 7, 2022

Reporter:AJ’s Walleye Lodge

Trail Conditions: Good

Snow Cover: Good

Date of Report: March 7, 2022

Area Report:

The ice storm over the weekend has taken a toll on trails in the Lake Gogebic Area. After the ice storm on Saturday, 6+” of wet heavy snow on Sunday brought down a lot of branches and debris on the trails. Groomers are out – and trails are in nice shape but some trails are not even groomable due to brush. The South end of Lake Gogebic area is being groomed right now and reported to be in good condition with the exception of a few wet spots – just have to watch for overhanging brush.

There will be a BRUSHING PARTY on Tuedsday (3/8/22) at 10 a.m. Eastern. Meet at Tuski Rd. in Bergland (3^rd drive on the left). Bring a snowmobile and a chainsaw. Pizza and beverages afterword. Aj’s Walleye Lodge is providing complimentary lodging for anyone coming up to help out that might need a room. We’ve got a great base and snow in the forecast – just need to work through the next several days to get everything back in order.

March 7, 2022 – 7:26am – 23 – High 26 – Low 9

Back to winter. Light wet SNOW this morning 6 miles East of Eagle River. Looks to be Lake Effect Snow as it’s not showing up on any radar.

Temps for the upcoming week are forecast for the mid 20’s for daytime temps with the exception of Tuesday when it will pop up into 30’s. Single digits to around 10 at night. Next forecast SNOW is Sunday.

Groomer Tracking Systems (GTS) shows no grooming overnight.

As for the trails all conditions. Out east of Eagle River where I live Trail 10E is crusty snow covered with thin ice layer on top. With the light SNOW it will make them very icy. Section between Bloom Rd & Loon Lake Rd that then connects to Trail 13 to town is thin & Poor. The grade section just south of town is still Good. In town all frozen, icy & few thin spots. These are the trails I’ve seen. Have to think the rest of the trails in the same shape. So if you ride please slow down. You can get in trouble real quickly.

The Clubs of Vilas County work very hard to secure easements from private landowners & folks we are losing many due to off trail riding. So PLEASE NO OFF TRAIL RIDING.

Catfish & Eagle lake trails marked & OPEN. Stay by the orange reflective barrels. Surface slush with the sun is possible. DO NOT think the entire lake is safe. Several sleds have gone in the water this season far from the barrels.

Please KEEP DOIN’ THE SNOW DANCE! And THINK COLD would be good too!

See ya on the Trails!

Hello Riders!

While the trails are open; If you choose to ride, do know there are no groomers out due to conditions as they can not get through trails.

Trail Conditions: Good

Snow Cover: 15″-20″

Date of Report: March 6, 2022

Area Report:

The ice and rain perdicted didn’t do anything to our snow base. It made for a crust on top of the snow. Good riding can still be found in Phelps and Vilas County. Phelps trails have not been groomed since Thursday night due to warm temperatures. Once temps fall back into the 20’s or teens, grooming will start up again. Trails are hard packed and fast. Corners are icy and coution should be used along with common sense. Please ride safe. We want all of you to make it back home and see you all again on a return trip to the Phelps area. Weather forecast looks good to keep the trails open for the near future. Snow is again forecasted for Thursday and Friday of this upcoming week. Now is the best time to come up and ride. Less traffic and warmer temps.
