In the meantime keep THINKING COLD!  And a SNOW DANCE might be good too.  Try to have some photos of the SNOW tomorrow.

Trail Report – : Lake Gogebic | Bergland, Michigan – December 4, 2021

Reporter:AJ’s Walleye Lodge

Trail Conditions: Not Ridable

Snow Cover: Light

Date of Report: December 4, 2021

Area Report:

Hello and welcome back to winter!  We are really looking forward to what is predicted to be a great season!  Forecast calls for snow moving in over the weekend with as much as 10″ over Sunday and Monday and below zero temperatures.   Definitely what we need.  Ice is forming on the Bay but there are still open spots in the mouth of Lake and on the Big Lake.    Groomers have been out rolling what we have – just hoping for more!    Get packing and get your Christmas shopping done early – so you can be ready when it’s time to ride!    Stay well everyone and we look forward to welcoming everyone back to Bergland and the Lake Gogebic Area!!

Jim, Mary Beth, Anthony and the AJ’s Crew!

 

Trail Report – : Keweenaw Peninsula / Houghton-Hancock, South Range, Copper Harbor, Michigan – December 2, 2021

Reporter:Stretch

Trail Conditions: Not Ridable

Snow Cover: 1″-2″

Date of Report: December 2, 2021

Area Report:

The season started yesterday with drizzle and warm weather hitting a high of 40°.  So our trails have very little rain soaked snow which will harden up once it freezes again. Good news the forecast shows for snow this weekend into Monday. 

Keep in mind the Portage bridge is not down for snowmobile traffic yet due to the on going construction. I’m told by MDOT that it will turned over to us between December 17th and the 20th. I will keep you posted when it will be open for snowmobiling. Also trail 3 from Dollar Bay to Lake Linden and the Frieda trail are still closed.

Trail Report – : Phelps, Wisconsin – December 1, 2021

Reporter:Phelps Snowmobile Club

Trail Conditions: Closed

Snow Cover: 8″-10″

Date of Report: December 1, 2021

Area Report:

Welcome to December.  Snowmobile season is almost here.  Between snowfalls over the weekend and another blast on Monday, we have a good 8″-10″ on the ground.  Grant it that it was pretty fluffy and will settle down quite a bit.  North Twin is about half frozen and more colder weather is needed to freeze the lakes solid and to firm up the swamps.  Our club has been busy brushing and signing this fall and trails will be ready for when they open.  Panning will begin shortly to help freeze down a solid base for the trails.  Hope all of you have your sleds ready to go.  Please, if you not already a member of a club, join now to help support the trails throughout the state of Wisconsin.  Plus club members receive discount on trail pass purchases.  Remember that when it is time, stay on the marked trail and ride safe.

Snow Cover: 5 inches of snow cover as of 8pm 11/30/2021 – No panning or grooming yet

Date of Report: December 1, 2021

Area Report:

First Report of the 2021-2022 Season!
2 days of SNOW in Vilas County! Total over the 2 days for Eagle River is 6-8 inches with a bit more east of Eagle River. Looks like the temp will be jumping up Wednesday & Thursday. So what’s needed is a strong THINK COLD!!
 
In the meantime, Sno-Eagles is busy finishing up securing easements, brushing & signing snowmobile trails. Prepping grooming equipment. The Trail Boss & groomer drivers met last night for an organizational meeting at Erin’s Pub & Grub. A big supporter of the Sno-Eagles trails.

Trails will not open until after the 9 days deer gun hunt, 10 day muzzle loader season & 4 day Youth Hunt are complete. This with snow conditions permitting.

So as I said……THINK COLD! Then we can do THE SNOW DANCE!

Trail Report – : Keweenaw Peninsula / Houghton-Hancock, South Range, Copper Harbor, Michigan – November 30, 2021

Reporter:Stretch

Trail Conditions: Not Ridable

Snow Cover: Between 2″ – 4″

Date of Report: November 30, 2021

Area Report:

Well tomorrow is December 1st and our trails are supposed to open. However after getting around 4″-5″ inches of this past weekend it hit a warm 36° today. Along with some very gusty wind we lost a lot of our snow. So until we get some significant snow there will be no groomer yet. 

Remember trail from Dollar Bay to Lake Linden and the Frieda trail are both closed all season. Also trail 109 out of Twin Lakes to Alston will be closed permanently. We did get trail 133 back this year but we are still working on getting it open as soon as possible.
