    ? TRAIL CONDITIONS ? - TWIN LAKES TRIP JAN 13 - 17

    Yep, lots of misinformation about conditions in the WUP on bookface… few sources with large followings making people believe that because 1 town got X amount of snow, the entire WUP & Kee are good to go. There’s definitely people still stuck trying to ride out the conditions, but with how good...

    ? TRAIL CONDITIONS ? - TWIN LAKES TRIP JAN 13 - 17

    You would have much better conditions in Munising and to the east/northeast of there. Twin Lakes has great snow, but north of Calumet is almost unrideable and same with Ontonogan area, so you’d be pretty locked into riding trail 3 unfortunately. South boundary rd up to the porkies is alright...

    Munising Conditions

    I stayed in Munising this weekend, trails were great yesterday around Munising, did the trail 7/8 loop. I rode from Seney up to Grand Marais on Saturday as well. Little choppy with the traffic but tons of snow. If you’re riding mid week you’ll be in for a treat!

    Not too new of a sled then, all the pre gen 4 sleds were located there. Agreed, it’s not the funnest.

    EUP report!

    Plenty of ditch line there to run a groomed trail. A pure shame. There is a few rental properties along H58 there, so regardless there is sleds running everywhere up and down there. Hate to assume, but have a hunch the first few massive houses on miners castle rd may have played a part in this.

    On a gen 4 or 5?? Those are insanely easy. They’re under the seat. Couple minute job.

    The Polaris app is inferior to the BRP app, I’m sure you’re aware ;)

    EUP report!

    Up here again. Holy man, what a zoo! Had to have been 200+ sleds in town in grand Marais today. Will give a detailed report when I get back.

    Trail question 12&13 open?

    13 from Greenland to Twin Lakes is closed due to a bridge being out from storms a couple years ago. There is currently a bridge on trail 3 not deemed strong enough to hold up the groomer, so there is a small few mile reroute around it, that uses a very small portion of the original trail 13...

    Munising Conditions

    There was still people riding grand Marais and Seney area yesterday surprisingly. With the incoming snow I think that area will be ok.

    Winters back, back again!

    I hear ya. Sure do miss his insight. This graphic is from Midwest weather on Facebook. I am slightly concerned, that the GFS and Euro models aren’t picking up much yet, whereas the 2 large LES events earlier this month did.

    Winters back, back again!

    This is all lake effect. Most weather stations or apps refuse to forecast it until a day or so before it starts. Keep in mind this is accumulative across a 5 day span.
