Northern Michigan Snowmobile

Snowmobiling in Northern Michigan and the Upper Peninsula

Snow Resources: Radar Loop | Snow Depth Map | Winter Storm Warning Map

March 14, 2025 – 12:10 pm update: – FRIDAY AFTERNOON – It’s time to get up to the U.P. and get out on the trails. Still snow in the snow belts of the Upper Peninsula. Later Friday and Saturday warm temperatures and rain will likely take a toll on the trails. Weather moderates starting Sunday. There should be snow to ride after the warm up but the spring riding conditions may be challenging.

March 13, 2025 – 2:40 pm update: – THURSDAY AFTERNOON – The snow pack is holding up in the Eastern U.P. around Paradise and Newberry and Grand Marais where groomers have been out as late as last night. Also good snow pack the northern half of the Western U.P. and the Keweenaw Peninsula. Highs in the 40s, 50s and even 60s for the next couple of days and lows above the freezing mark. The high temps will likely melt back a lot of the base. So good sledding will be tough this weekend. Temperatures do start to moderate next week and there is snow in the forecast, so there may be chances to get in a spring ride in the Upper Peninsula as we move into the second half of March.

WEATHER UPDATE via US National Weather Service Gaylord Michigan >> Very windy day on tap as a strong low pressure passes by to our west. Expecting some morning showers and rumbles of thunder to give way to some breaks in the clouds at times. A few showers or storms may try to redevelop in the afternoon, any of which could enhance already gusty winds of 40 to 50mph. It will be warm again today, with highs largely in the 60s to near 70 toward Saginaw Bay. #miweather #gaylord #cadillac #benzie #traversecity #petoskeyVery windy day on tap as a strong low pressure passes by to our west.
