Four inches of snow is a big help. Its going a long way towards repairing the damage Mother Nature did.

Josh has his Superman cape on and will be out all night. Tractor Mac hit the Porkies.
Trails are setting up nicely. Get out early, lots of sledheads in da Yoop.
Josh, Kurtis and Tractor Mac were out last night, looks like all 109 miles were hit. Mother Nature put down from 10" to 20" depending on your location on our system. Snow is pretty dry so not packing in perfectly but going down nonetheless. Expecting another 3" today.
Get out and ride the beautiful 906!
All 3 groomers will be out all night, the trails are shaping up nicely!!

Four inches of snow is a big help. Its going a long way towards repairing the damage Mother Nature did.
Steve, Josh and Tractor Mac are out working for you tonight!
We hit all 109 miles last night. Doing the best we can with what we have.
Trails are fair to good. Corners are icy and crossings are bare.
Do your snow dance and keep your fingers crossed we get the 8" forecast before Friday!
Trail 13 is clear of the groomer, reroute closed and trail reopened. We had limited grooming last night due to our volunteers exhaustion dealing with the stuck rig two nights ago and yesterday. Trail icyness is increasing rapidly. Please ride slowly!
2/17/2023
The groomer crew was out all day yesterday running nonstop overnight into this morning. Trail 1 west of Silver City is thin until you hit the unplowed road to Lake of the Clouds. All trails need more grooming, but we also need traffic to help break up the frozen moguls down deep. Trails are rated GOOD with short sections rated POOR. Poor sections are closest to the lake.
2/16/2023
Thank you NCSC-UP groomers! They are out to flatten trails and spread the gospel of snow. We caught Kurtis coming back from LOTC on trail 12! Trails will be very icy in spots and thin near the lake. Trail 12 is rideable from White Pine to Ontonagon, yes you can get over the big Ontonagon River Bridge! Groomers will run all night!
2/15/2023
Groomers will be going out and day grooming tomorrow to start rebuilding the trails we will have a better trail report tomorrow night.. winter is not over yet!!
2/13/2023
Well, Kurtis Van Alst groomed from Hamilton's North Coast Adventures shop to Lake of the Clouds this morning. It groomed up nice, but trail 1 near the ski hill is very thin. He was able to cover 60% of the bare spots from South Boundary Road west towards the ski hill. He did triple passes (6 total runs) on the upper turns to LOTC to get it back flat. Trails are full of snow, but some high spots like driveways have gotten bare, and it is thin west of silver city. Trails will get icy, grooming is paused until temperatures allow us to head out. Thanks for your understanding.
2/11/2023
We have made the tough decision to park the groomers tonight due to the temperature.
We will assess the situation daily to determine the best course of action.
We want to be out there as bad as you would like us to be out there.
Here's to cooler weather!
Steve, Kurtis, Josh and Tractor Mac were out Friday night into Saturday morning. All of our trails with the exception of Trail 12 from Ontonagon to Greenland were groomed.
Get out early!! Traffic is extremely high and temps are expected to get into the mid 40's. Trail conditions will deteriorate quickly.
2/10/2023
Trails groomed up nice!! Great riding ahead! Thank you sponsors and volunteers! Ride right, ride sober, STOP at STOP signs, be courteous to riders and drive past homes like a sleepy groomer operator is in there napping!
