Snowmobile Trail Conditions

Today was another quick trip. We started at 8:30 and were done by 1pm. We rode trail 6 west to trail 11 north. Once again after we crossed into Michigan trail 11 was in perfect shape. We cruised up to trail 2 and took it east. Then we rode trail 1 north to lake Goegibic and took trail 101 to the south end of the lake. We ran the lake up to the ski-doo dealer and had some minor work done. After getting the repairs done we headed for home. This time we took trail 1 all the way to Presque Isle.

To be honest I was pretty shocked how good of shape the trails were in today. I would estimate at least 90-95% snow coverage (very little dirt). In the next 3 days it is supposed to remain warm and possibly rain 🙁 Hopefully that doesn’t happen or the trails won’t be rideable.

We headed out today to try and meet up with the SnowBallCancer.org group. They were doing a 500 mile valentines day run. Unfortunately our paths never crossed, but they ended up reaching their goal of 500+ miles in 1 day! We left Presque Isle and took trail 1 north to Marenisco. After a quick breakfast at the wild river we headed west on trail 2 towards Wakefield. Both trail 1 and trail 2 were in great shape. We hooked up with trail 8 east and rode that into Bergland. Then we gassed up at nordines and headed out of town on trail 13 to Rockland. We grabbed a bit to eat at Henrys Never Inn then made our way down trail 3 to trail 8 west back into Bergland.

It was really warm out today and things have started to thaw. The trails have held up really well, but after crossing lake Gogebic and getting back on trail 1, the snow started to thin out. There is definitely more snow from Wakefield to Bergland than from Marenisco to Presque Isle.

Today ended up being a pretty quick trip. We left around 10am, headed north on trail 11 then east on trail 2 into Marenisco.

Both trails were in spectacular shape! We grabbed a bit to eat at Bam Bam’s and then headed back down trail 1 to Presque Isle.

Most of my high school buddies came up to ride this weekend. We spent some time last night installing the Bergstrom tripple point carbides on 3 sleds.

Everything was ready to go this morning when we ran into a problem with the heat at my buddys place. We had to call a guy out to fix it, so that got us off to a slow start. We rolled out of here around 2pm and made our way on trail 6 into Presque Isle for gas and then trail 1 North. Trail 6 could use some work, but trail 1 was decent. At one point we were behind the groomer, so that was great! We got on trail 2 and headed East.

It was in great shape as usual, that club does a fantastic job! We dropped into Rogers Bar for a pizza and drink then headed to Bents Camp for dinner. The food was fantastic as usual. Then we took trail 6 West back to Presque Isle for gas and stopped at Skyview for a drink.
