Trail Report – : Iron County, Michigan – January 20, 2023

Reporter:Colleen
Trail Conditions: Good
Snow Cover: 12-18 inches
Date of Report: January 20, 2023
Area Report:

Here is the update after yesterday’s storm.  Depending where you are at in Iron County… we received a lot of snow.  Anywhere from 10″ – 14″ I have heard and read so far today.  Both snowmobile clubs have their groomers and operators out on the trails.. some were out as early as yesterday afternoon grooming.  I’ve seen some really nice pictures posted on Facebook… so all in all I believe the trails should be in good to very condition today and through the weekend!  There is a closing on Trail 15N to Trail #111 – there is an issue with a bridge that they are trying to work through.  But at this time I am being told it is still closed.  Looks like you can ride any direction at this time in the U.P.  Trail conditions are sounding pretty good.  Also being told that you can also ride south down to Wisconsin currently as well… I’m not sure how far south Wisconsin also received snow yesterday.

Just want to mention to everyone as a reminder.. under the new snow is a very good ice base… so ride with caution especially in the corners.. and please try to stay on your side of the trail when riding.  And don’t forget… give the operators a THUMBS UP when you see them.  🙂

Happy Trails to everyone… the trails look great… and it’s time to have some FUN!!  🙂


News and Reports:

Another mention… there is a “Winter Fest” this weekend being held at Young’s Golf Course. Lots of “Fun Activities” for kids and adults both.

Also activities being held at Ski Brule this weekend.  Both locations can be reached by snowmobiles just off the trails…
