December 5, 2024 – 1:30 pm update: – THURSDAY AFTERNOON – We’ve had moderate to heavy snow and generally cold temperatures all week for the snow belts of Northern Lower Michigan and the Upper Peninsula. The cold and snow will continue into the weekend with a slight warmup on Sunday going into the first part of next week. Get your start on weekend sledding as soon as possible. Most trails in the snow belts should have a good amount of snow. Expect early-season conditions and challenges. There will be wet areas and open water in certain areas as the ground has not frozen yet in many areas. Trails are likely to get soft and Sunday with the warmer temperatures.

LAKE GOGEBIC AREA UPDATE via Gogebic Area Grooming >> We'll just do an all out photo dump!! Couldn't ask for anything better than help! We were moving by 9am with plans in mind to break in two different crews and open up 13s. One group started at the north end of East shore Rd. 2nd Root Cellar. Only section we avoided was the swamp area just south of the Root Cellar when you dip back in the woods about a half mile. Our helper on snowmobile made it through no problem. We met him on the other side. We got a lot done today. Thank you everyone that helped. Now snow and cold!!❄️❄️❄️ #lakegogebic#westernup#snowphotos... See MoreSee Less
BALDWIN AREA UPDATE via Trailriders Snowmobile Club >> 12/8 Update. Groomers are officially parked until we get cold temperatures and more snow. Our last grooming took place on Friday night 12/6. Think snow and keep the snow dances going! We are ready to roll again when conditions allow. Please try to avoid our entire trail system until the weather cooperates. We may be able to preserve whatever base we have in some areas and it may turn out to be a good icy flat base if things melt down and refreeze as long as we can keep machines and especially wheeled vehicles off the trails while they are soft. Pictures are from yesterday at noon to this morning at daybreak showing the snow loss in the Newaygo area, the snow is going fast! #baldwinarea#snowphotos... See MoreSee Less

WEATHER UPDATE via US National Weather Service Gaylord Michigan >> A wintry system will bring a shot of rain and snow to areas tonight. Dividing line between rain and snow appears to be M-32 in northern lower tonight, with a couple inches of snow over the eastern UP by morning. The dividing line should move a bit further north Monday, with the chance for a wintry mix or even a light glaze of ice for the eastern UP…though most areas will try to transition to rain or drizzle by afternoon, before snow returns late Monday night. Roads could become sloppy with the snowmelt and rain on top of the snow…and overnight lows tonight could fall below freezing, leading to the potential for surfaces to refreeze. #miweather #gaylord#cadillac#benzie#traversecity#petoskeyA wintry system will bring a shot of rain and snow to areas tonight.
