TRAIL CONDITION REPORT

The best two months of winter begins NOW! Season Snowfall to date is 134.6". Looks like this weekend is offering up some great riding.
Gogebic Range Trail Authority: Groomers are out both day and night and all trails are being groomed including 2-8-160-11N and 11S. Overall conditions Good-some very good, some fair. With increased traffic, corners may be icy. Colder temps will improve the trails.
From the Lake Gogebic Area-Groomers are all out double grooming all trails.. trails good to very good.
Watersmeet groomers are out and reporting trails are solid and conditions are fair to good.
And here's good news for our Trail 2 East riders-the Marenisco Mini Mart is open and gas is again available there.
IN ALL AREAS:
Please slow down when riding through towns. We're starting to get some complaints so let's nip it in the bud before it become a problem.
Keep in mind the groomers are out both day and night, so watch for them, and PLEASE pull over or at least slow down and wait for the operator to signal you by whenever you see them.
The time you spend riding in Big Snow Country is all about lots of fun and a great time...therefore, your safety is our #1 priority.

ICE: Let us reiterate, there is no such thing as "safe" ice.
If you choose to ride on a body of water, be sure you check with locals in the specific area you intend to ride and get current information on conditions in that area. When you ride on ice, you are doing so at your own risk.



SIGN VANDALISM RESULTING IN SERIOUS SITUATION
Expect to see more patrols on the trails due to a recent rash of sign vandalism incidents...we're hearing cameras also may be enlisted in order to apprehend those responsible. If you see any suspicious activity, please call the DNR at 800-292-7800.
