Snowmobile Trail and Weather Photos
The Latest Photos from the Michigan Snowmobile Trail Report on Facebook

SAULT STE. MARIE UPDATE via Sault Ste. Marie Snowmobile Association >> Took a walk over to trail 8 where it crosses near my house in the Soo, as you come in from the west. As you can see, dirt is starting to show where the sun shines and where sleds hammer on it after the stop sign. I’m not sharing this to tell you to ride or not to ride, that’s your call. Only sharing so you can see what it looks like for yourself. A very small sampling of a much larger trail system. Some areas will be wet, some thinner than this, some with more than this... #soo #snowphotos
Still early we need COLD weather lots of cold weather
Sleds hammering on it to the dirt..."Yep... CANT FIX STUPID!!".
FREDERIC / GAYLORD AREA UPDATE via Sledheads of Frederic , Michigan Snowmobiling >> Gaylord groomer out on the trail working a thin base... #gaylord #snowphotos

Good start. Need a storm or two

Like the honest report. 👍👍😁😁
SAULT STE. MARIE AREA UPDATE via Sault Ste. Marie Snowmobile Association >> For those wanting to know, this is in no way what all of your trails look like, but a quick snap of trail 8 at 5:30 pm today (12/1) in the Soo where it runs near my house. Gates are open here, and also saw the gate on 49 near Walmart is open. There ARE wet areas. If you choose to ride, ride safely, watch for icy spots, debris, and water holes. Early season conditions, as they say.
Think snow! ❄️❄️❄️ #soo #snowphotos
Thanks for the update 😀
Thanks for posting.
Not worth riding the soo currently, huge mud holes and the snow is thin. Extended forecast is bad too.
Let the base build Up before tearing it up!
Ride em if ya got em!
LAKE GOGEBIC AREA UPDATE via Gogebic Area Grooming >> Happy December 1st to all our sled heads out there! Getting gates opened up... 13s and 1s remain closed until permission to access. We need snow.❄️❄️❄️ #lakegogebic #westernup #snowphotos

SENEY AREA UPDATE via Mater's Stop -N- Go Gas Station >> First snowmobilers Dec 1st 2023. Opening day. Pretty neat. #seney #snowphotos
Craig Ballard
Looks like a warm up next week
TRAVERSE CITY AREA UPDATE via Grand Traverse Area Snowmobile Club >> We have been out on the trails the past two days finishing up the signage and they are now complete. Thanks to Eric, David, Dave, John, Bob, Steve and Jeff for volunteering their time to get this done. Now all we need is cold weather and snow. We receive 9 inches earlier this week. However, today we had sunshine and 46 degree temps and lost the majority of the snow. It's time to do those dances. Hopefully we'll have a great year! #traversecity #snowphotos
I love seeing the posts where you are out pregrooming/dirt grooming the trails. Flat trails before the snow definitely makes a huge difference.
Thank you!!
Thank you!!!!
KEWEENAW PENINSULA UPDATE via Keweenaw Snowmobile Club >> 2024 Season Opening Notes:
We need 1-3’ of snow depending on the trail and what lies beneath that snow- rock, sand, water/mud. Do those snow dances! We’re packed up and ready for when there is adequate snow!
Portage Lake Lift Bridge Opening will be weather dependent AND we await the return of the Ranger III from safety inspections in Duluth. There can be no crossing without the mat in place - safety, equipment, and bridge grates are among the reasons.
Trail 133 - Closed until snow levels are high enough, water holes are frozen, and property owners approve due to hunting.
Logging - We have active logging this year at the start of the season impacting Trail 124 and Trail 3 between Phoenix and Delaware finishing no later than 12/22. You can use trail 130 to bypass the trail 3 logging. Trail 122 will get you into Gay.
Grooming will begin when we have enough snow and the traffic dictates. Expect early season conditions with possible wet spots, tree limbs, and possibly gates closed if groomers haven’t been out yet.
HUGE news as well, Trail 3 was officially opened yesterday from Dollar Bay to Lake Linden and will be available for use for the first time since the Fathers Day Flood of 2018.
Keep an eye out for updates!
Thanks,

Aaron Plohg!! Stay off trail 122
Is trail 15 going north out of Baraga going to be opened this year? I read they are replacing a bridge. We have a trip planned for that area in February
I assume the state will partial refund our stickers. If the state sells us access to trails from certain dates then the person that paid should be the one to decide to use them or not.
FREDERIC / GAYLORD AREA UPDATE via Sledheads of Frederic , Michigan Snowmobiling >> Forty degrees and sunshine... snow from earlier in the week is melting... #gaylord #grayling #snowphotos
WATERS / GAYLORD AREA UPDATE via Waters Inn >> Still snowing - Trails open Friday!
We are looking forward to seeing our Snowmobile friends. #gaylord #snowphotos
The warm up will kill it

LAKE GOGEBIC AREA UPDATE via Gogebic Area Grooming >> After all is said and done. This is how it turned out. Clear picture on the left was taken today 11/28/23 around noon. The other was yesterday 11/27/23 taken around noon. Some area's got more and some less. We have a driver's meeting Saturday the 2nd of December and will most likely start packing and setting trails Monday December 4th. Trail and weather permitting.. ❄️❄️❄️ #lakegogebic #westernup #snowphotos
GAYLORD AREA UPDATE via Comfort Inn & MainStay Suites >> The Snow is here! Nearly 12 inches of beautiful powder fell in Gaylord, Michigan for all of our snowmobiling friends to enjoy. We can't wait to see you!! #snowmobile #snowmobiling #freshsnow #snow #powder #staywithus #gaylord #snowphotos

Just got here to the cabin, which is within eyesight of this hotel. The snow is shrunk down to about 3-4 inches, trails are surprisingly covered even at road crossings. Roads are bare. don’t know that trails will ride well / hold up well considering this is the first snow. I personally wouldn’t pay for a hotel but if you have a place here poking around for a few miles might be fun.
Ryan Harwood Jeremy S. Rau Kevin Harwood It’s Gooooooo time!!!!
Jennifer Abahazi
Anne Marie Flynn
How did the Snow hold up after the warm up today
Justin Reed 🥹
Why is this hotel saying there is only a few inches, and the gas station guy said there's 2-3 inches and they haven't gotten that much? Is anyone actually there and can confirm

That will be toast this weekend. But hell yes bring on more snow and cold temp!! Good start to the season
Thursday is going to kill it before the trails even open.
Bryant Koback
Cody Chic let’s go rip the sleds!
If it stays and the idiots stay of the trails that’s a good start to a base.
