Trail Report – : Sault Ste. Marie, Michigan – March 11, 2020
Reporter:SaultSteMarie
Trail Conditions: Good
Snow Cover: 7″
Date of Report: March 11, 2020
Area Report:
UPDATE 3/11- We picked up about an inch of snow last night and it is currently snowing. It’s not supposed to amount to much. Groomers are reporting that all trails are in good condition. Roads and shoulders are bare from a couple of days of sun and high temps but trails are holding up well. All trails are groomed at least 5 times per week. Please see below for each trail. There is still a lot of great riding to be had. Ride safe!
-There is now a plowed parking area at the beginning of trail #8 under the International Bridge, which has an all-season porta potty. Make sure you lock your vehicles and trailers.
-We now have a marked trail going to Chippewa Motors. It starts once you come out of the woods east of M-129 off #449. It comes into their parking lot from behind if you need parts or service.
-City curfew is from 1 am – 6 am. Remember most City streets are open to traffic 20 mph, stop at all intersections, and ride on the right-hand side of the street, not on sidewalks. Watch for closed streets that are posted, mainly around the hospital, university, and state trunk lines.
-When the trail is running along roads make sure you go with the flow of traffic on the right side of the road.
-Remember trail base is the amount of snow between your track and the ground below not the amount of fluff piled up in the woods. 10 inches of snow compresses to less than an inch on the trail.
-If you are staying in the Sault please look at our list of supporters on our web page and give them your business. Please do that in all the towns you visit. The grooming entities are all made up of volunteers who want you to support those who support us!!!!!!
