GRAND MARAIS AREA UPDATE via Grand Marais Sno-Trails Assoc. >> UP200 Weekend in Grand Marais!
Saturday will be busy as we welcome the mushers back after three years. The teams will be on the trail Friday night through Sunday morning. We are asking our snowmobiling friends to please stay on the NUMBERED trails and don't go down unmarked side trails on Saturday. The mushers will leave Wetmore early Saturday morning and will return on Saturday night. The snowmobile sweep team will follow the last musher and remove the trail markers as they go. Your help on Saturday will keep the mushers and dogs safe. Thank you! #grandmarais #newberry #snowphotosUP200 Weekend in Grand Marais!

STRAITS AREA UPDATE via Straits Area Snowmobile Club >> Tuesday February 11th
Trail update
Cold temps and active grooming. Our conditions should hold very similar for the next upcoming days. No issues to report, our system is all ridable, mostly flat and white. Potential for a few thin spots on the grade between St Ignace and Moran but not enough to stop you from making an overall good ride.
