NEWBERRY AREA UPDATE via Trails End Lodging >> Good morning from a crisp, sunny Windy Corners!! ❄️☀️
It’s one of those perfect, peaceful starts — fresh groomed trails, clean air, and that quiet calm before the day picks up. You can almost hear the snow calling your name.
Trails are looking mint today… 👌
Are you squeezing in one last ride before the season wraps up? 🏁
Or have you already hung up the helmet and put away the sled for the year?
Drop a ❄️ if you’re riding today — let’s see who’s still out there making the most of it! #newberry #snowphotos
NEWBERRY AREA UPDATE via Trails End Lodging >> Groomer Ed from TASA Tahquamenon Area Snowmobile Association just rolled through Windy Corners for one final groom of the season… and WOW, what a ride it’s been. ❄️🔥
From early mornings to late nights, through blowing snow and brutal conditions, our groomers showed up every single time and delivered perfection. The trails this year? Absolutely unreal. 🙌
Let’s make some noise for the people who make it all happen 👇
👏 THANK YOU to every groomer who put in the hours, the grit, and the passion. You don’t always get the spotlight, but trust me—it does NOT go unnoticed.
If you rode the trails this season, drop a comment and show your appreciation:
👇👇👇
• Where was your favorite ride this year?
• Best trail conditions you experienced?
• Got a shoutout for a groomer? Tag them!
Let’s blow this up and give these legends the recognition they deserve. 🚨 #newberry #snowphotos
NEWBERRY AREA UPDATE via TASA Tahquamenon Area Snowmobile Association >> Chad and I just had a discussion, and it occurred to us, we've heard no fat ladies singing, so.....
Chad, you have to answer them. Im busy.
Just have the drag spread out low and lean, nothing blade worthy yet, hauling hiny (9ish) keeps it cycling through pretty good, leavin, ribbons.
Mostly just out here looking for disasters before that lady shows up! 😉 keep you posted. #newberry #snowphotos

FREDERIC - GAYLORD AREA UPDATE via Sledheads of Frederic , Michigan Snowmobiling >> That's a Wrap on the 25-26 Sled Season - Well here we are up to March 31, 2026 and the end of the season with more snow that we have seen in a long , long time. Still alot to melt off here in Frederic, Piles were huge and so very rock hard its still gonna take them a while to melt down. The good thing about all the snow was that it spread the riders out all thru the state which made for a much safer season. Even with that there were still 12 deaths with only 4 in the lower and the rest in the u.p. In looking at the sledview camera north of Gayord the trail is still covered with snow... #gaylord #snowphotos

Summarized the sled and started preparing the spring/summer season toys? OR do you still have plans to ride yet?!

❌Portage Lake Lift Bridge gates will close on 4/1/26
🟢 Trails on state land do not “close” but be aware you could encounter ORV’s on these trails. For detailed information please check the DNR interactive maps
🟢 Trail 3 from Lake Linden to Hancock can be ridden at any time of the year
🟢 Trail 17 from Calumet to Hancock can be ridden at any time of the year

Plenty of great riding to still be done! Nikki McGill is officially calling it quits on her season and just left the Keweenaw! Nikki said, “Wow! What a great last snowmobile trip of the season ❄️❄️ 🩵 Wrapped up the season last weekend with 4 days of flat & fast trails, and ended the last day with the Vintage Snowmobile Run For Fun Fundraiser for the Valley Sno Drifters🛷
Total of 2000 miles this season on my sled, with 6500 miles on it now 😬
Officially put a fork 🍴 in it!!
What a fun season with trail riding, along with a great race season and a win @ Chetek Winter Fest. 🏁🏁

KEWEENAW PENINSULA UPDATE via The Lakeshack >> After today it’s the start of spring rides
Well most trails close after today, Trail 3 is open all year and there’s plenty of snow left in these parts
It’s kinda sad dayfor trail riders especially since reports from Toivola north trails are reporting excellent conditions and a snowstorm in the forecast!
But gates will be locked up till next season
Personally right now starts my favorite rides of the year
Warm temps(sometimes tee shirt weather) but the beauty of the creeks and waterfalls are gorgeous!
I’m sure I’ll be sharing pictures for another month and will post here so y’all can ride vicariously through me!
It’s been a great winter
I’m pretty sure this will be my last season of riding with my battle with ALS
My body is giving up on me but not my spirit so stay tuned, ya never know
Check out my live cam and see the snowpack melt and maybe grow as the forecast is looking interesting

KEWEENAW PENINSULA UPDATE via Western UP Trail Reports >> 31 March 2026
This is a sad day having to say that it's the last day of the season. Keep in mind if you are riding today the bridge will be closed tonight. I've even had Houghton start taking the snow off the sidewalk during the day.

SAULT STE. MARIE AREA UPDATE via Sault Ste. Marie Snowmobile Association >> 3/30/26
Hello everyone!
It’s 41 degrees here in the Soo today with warm sunshine. The melt is definitely on.
It’s heard to believe that we were still grooming as of yesterday! What a season!
The Tucker that sits in Kinross was brought back to the Soo barn yesterday, and the Pisten Bully just came in to the Soo barn this morning from Raco.
It’s so bittersweet as we have SO MUCH snow still on the trails, but our operators deserve some well earned rest, and all good things must come to an end.
Tonight, we’re holding our groomer appreciation dinner and I’ll get some pics and maybe some Q & A with some of our operators for you about this season.
Once I have all of the March paperwork completed, I’ll also share some stats from the season.
We’ll be getting gates closed after the 31st, and some are still really buried in snow, so please know where you are riding after 3/31 and stay off of private property. Trails on state and federal lands do not close but will not be groomed. Be safe if you still choose to ride and be alert to rapidly changing conditions such as water holes opening up. It’s going to be one heck of a mud season this year!
As of today, we still have 30” of snow on the ground, with a trail base of over 2’ in many areas🤯
Thank you to all who visited our area, rode our trail system, supported our local businesses, donated to or joined our club, who follow us on Groomer Tracker and here on Facebook, the DNR for finding additional grooming dollars to get us through March, our incredible volunteers and members, and most importantly, the AMAZING landowners who allow us to have the wonderful trail system that we have!
Best season ever!!! ❄️❄️❄️
PS- there’s rumor of a big snowstorm late this week😅😂 #soo #soo0330 #snowphotos
Thank you to all whom helped . It is greatly appreciated!!!!!
NEWBERRY AREA UPDATE via Halfway Lake Cottages, LLC >> Had a great ride today from home to Seney and back! Trails were great and we had one of our best rides! Sophia even drove for the first time on the trail for a little while! She says she didn’t like it when someone passed her! lol We are going to have snow for a long while - get up here & take advantage of spring rates! #newberry #snowphotos
NEWBERRY AREA UPDATE via TASA Tahquamenon Area Snowmobile Association >> 😭 Last Trip 😪
9:43PM Trail 9
Yuk! Second stop sign out, pretty ugly.
People were glad to see us from the git go, I get it!
Having to dig pretty deep with the blade in the corners followed by an aggressive drag, so heads up till we get back for any curbs I leave behind, still over 9ft wide a pass so you should be able to squeak through 😉
Othe than that, way cool sunset!
Not too much traffic, all pulled over 🥰
It's cleaning up very nice. I'll keep you posted.
11:18pm
Just finished Wolf Inn, North Store, Trails End Lodging, moved alot of snow down in the corners, lots, still digging deep.
Mostly ribbony, leveled off some intersections, enjoying my ride 😁
Just turned north, Pine Stump bound, keep you posted.
7:24am
Back down to the McMillan Leg.
After I left Windy Corners I never saw another sled, still haven't 😊 turning out pretty well, weird snow, thawed, froze, rinse, repeat it seems, kinda like artificial.
Anyway removed the ugly both sides, a few Corners could still use another lap, but they'll be fine. #newberry #snowphotos
SAULT STE. MARIE AREA UPDATE via Sault Ste. Marie Snowmobile Association >> 3/28/26
Good evening!!
It was Turbo and Diane’s last run for the season on 889. And they made it a double due to someone thinking they could drive a truck on the trail😔
Here’s what they had to say-
“This morning was a little bittersweet, as it was our last groom of the season on trails 480, 8 and 889. I really appreciate what Groomer Mark left for me this morning. The trails were nice and flat and smooth. They need very little to touch them up. Honestly, I believe these trails today are better than they were mid-season. It's really a shame that the season ends April 1st. It snowed the whole time. We got about 4" of new snow. This was our first groom this whole season, where I left a perfect ribbon from start to finish. Not one sled track the whole way.
So about 6pm tonight we were driving down Plantation road because Mrs. Turbo saw an eagles nest along the courtesy trail to Bay Mills this morning, and we saw a rescue vehicle sitting on the road just past the beginning of trail 889. So we stopped and waited for the rubber tracked skid loader pulling out a pick up truck. I asked him what they were doing driving on the trail and he said they were going to the Mission Hill overlook. I asked him how bad he tore up the trail getting stuck, and he said it was pretty bad. He tried to turn around and ended up getting stuck. I believe he could have driven the whole trail and been fine. The trails are so hard packed, we couldn't hardly see any tire tracks. So Mrs. Turbo and I went home and got our grooming clothes on and went back out to go fix it. Thankfully, it wasn't as bad as he told us it was. As beautiful as the trails were this morning, we must have had a lot of traffic today, because it was pretty tore up. So, it was actually a good thing we went out. We saw many sleds. All in all, it was a pretty good day. We hope everyone had a great day of riding. Enjoy, these last few days of the season. Remember, ride right, ride safe and ride sober.
Turbo”
Thank you so much for your extra efforts today, and all season!! Beautiful job!!❄️❄️❄️ #soo #soo0328b #snowphotos
I'm sure your efforts were greatly appreciated 👍
NEWBERRY AREA UPDATE via Pine Stump >> Saturday 3-28

Nights are still getting cold so the trails are hard to start

There will be a lot of snow in the backcountry way into April (probably late April) #newberry #snowphotos

HARBOR SPRINGS AREA UPDATE via Harbor Springs Snowmobile Club >> That’s a wrap on grooming for the 2025–2026 season! ❄️
Huge shoutout to our groomer operators—you absolutely killed it this year!
The season officially ends Tuesday night, & we’ll be closing gates on Wednesday. There’s still plenty of snow to get out and ride, and trails are holding flat!
The grade is starting to get thin in spots, and areas along dirt roads are mostly gone—but that’s spring riding. These sections are short and can often be avoided by hopping onto alternate trails.
Get out and enjoy it while it lasts! 🏁 #harborsprings #harborsprings0328 #petoskey #snowphotos

MUNISING AREA UPDATE via TNT Trenary Northern Trails >> Short run today to make sure our east end is smooth and conditions couldn’t be better. Possibly making one more full run before the end of season to make sure we are right on track to finish the season out. Reports have been coming in that the trail is pretty smooth. Grooming will end, but the entire trail will be open through the 31st. Private land closes across the state on the 1st of April, so feel free to keep riding, but please respect private property as land use permits do not allow clubs to keep the trail open. Ride right and ride safe! #munising #snowphotos
Good job to club!
Andrew Stellmacher still good up there
CEDARVILLE AREA UPDATE via Les Cheneaux Snowmobile Club & Grooming Report >> Bully 18 groomer tracker is not working but we groomed all of trail 491 and trail 47 to DeTour Village. Trails are great . Thanks to Jim Luke for all the advice Brian. Get out and ride great spring riding. #snowphotos
LAKE GOGEBIC AREA UPDATE via Lake Gogebic News >> “Conditions vary widely across the area.”
❄️ A half-hour drive north of Lake Gogebic, you’ll encounter Lake Superior. Known for its lake effect snow, Gitche Gumee is always moody.
❄️ Friday, March 27th: Here’s a look at lakefront conditions in Ontonagon County. A band of lake effect snow moved in, dropping two inches in one hour.
☁️ MEANWHILE… On Lake Gogebic… a cloudy day with afternoon temps reaching the mid-20’s.

KEWEENAW PENINSULA UPDATE via The Lakeshack >> Still feels like winter here in Twin Lakes!
Just 5 days left in the snowmobile trail season but off trail rides should last quite awhile here with the snowpack we have
And it’s coming down pretty good this morning
20 miles south is basically dirt but Mass City to Copper Harbor has plenty of snow and the Keweenaw snowmobile club is still grooming from Toivola north to Copper Harbor and reports have been great
The Superior snowmobile club has finished grooming early this year so extremely bumpy from Toivola and south
If your a snow lover like me, get up here now for a trail ride otherwise spring off trail rides are the best and ya have at least a month left for that
Check out the Shackiecam 24/7 here on beautiful Lake Roland

HARBOR SPRINGS AREA UPDATE via Harbor Springs Snowmobile Club >> We had a groomer out last night on the east side of our trail system. He groomed from the Harbor Barn to Alanson and then up the railroad grade to Pellston back to the barn and then up to big pine and Warwick road. The snow is thin getting through Alanson but other than that the trails are flat and in good shape!! Plenty of snow to still ride.
It’s the last weekend of the season, can anyone remember when we were able to groom for the last weekend?! I cannot!! #harborsprings #petoskey #snowphotos
NEWBERRY AREA UPDATE via TASA Tahquamenon Area Snowmobile Association >> Trail 9 10:28PM
Just about to the Sceny turn, wasn't so bad till I got north of Windy Corners, gotta scrape pretty well with the blade, but I noticed a little defect while out checking the tires.
Shot pics to Chad, we discussed, gonna use it but keep an eye it.
26⁰ not really alot of snow above our frozen base to plat with.
3 TASA Groomers out taking care of all of you for a great start Friday,.
Going to send this with 3 pics now, hope it works, keep you posted. 😁
1:32am Just turned around at Holland Lake, 48.4 miles hangin out at 26⁰ most the night.
Both Grand Marais and Seney have been through recently.
Have to use the blade to knock the snot outta most of it, turning out pretty good so far, no change on our Crack 😊
Headed to Pine Stump, then south.
Keep you posted.
5:44am Back to Windy Corners intersection. Had to dig pretty deep in quite a few Corners, busts up the chunky snow, again, still broken suger cube stuff, froze and thawed several times now, dont believe it will set up well and a porous flat surface.
Blending it all together on the way back. #newberry #snowphotos
