trails are currently open till APRIL 15th in some parts....as per the DNR SNOWMOBILE RULES....


The opening and closing of snowmobile trails is at the discretion of each county. Snowmobile trails which cross DNR lands are opened and closed consistent with the surrounding county (or counties). Whenever possible, the opening and closing of snowmobile trails is done on a county-wide basis, however localized conditions may require localized trail opening and closing. It is the responsibility of the county to provide notification about the status of snowmobile trails

I believe it. Two years ago if you knew where to look there was almost surely rideable snow Memorial Day on the Keweenaw. From what I've gathered some places of the Huron Mountains are able to hold snow just as if not longer than the Keweenaw in the spring.
