Just a reminder, please be careful and use you’re good judgment while riding on Lake Gogebic this snowmobile season. As many know there are numerous dangers to be aware of. The poorly marked County Park Pier at the south end, the soft ice on the north end, ice heaves, three foot ice banks created from plowed ice roads, white outs, fish houses, and intoxicated riders just to name a few. Can't wait to hit the trails, have a safe snowmobile season, Paul.

The plowed roads to the ice shanties are the worst
Ice heaves can happen it short order. I don't think you can say because it was safe in the morning it should be safe in the evening. I think its just as much fun to ride around the lake on the trail unless I am in a hurry....

And the trails around the lake are usually in very good condition as they get groomed regularly but low traffic due to so many sleds taking the lake.

same here. The trail on the west side of the lake has been junk everytime Ive ridden it.
Yes, it's a HORRIBLE trail. Please stay off of it and ride the lake!
WOW!
Tough subject.
I've ridden the lake many times. But I only do it during the day. Many things can go wrong out there, it's just not worth it. This is just my opinion but I'm still here to state it.
What ever you do, be carefull! Not just Gogebic but on any lake.
Good luck! Dave

One thing to always remember about Gogebic is the outlet on the North East side of the lake. This area does not freeze solid. It seems every year, typically in bad weather, a group decides the best way to get to Bergland from the East side of the lake is to just ride near the shore line. This tactic takes them right into the open water. Be safe and wave as you go by.

Gogebic is considered the autobahn of sledding
