UP trails

Go Fast or Go Home

Over on the Ski Doo forums guys that live there are saying no....Rain and warmer weather have ruined the trails, woods and low areas are flooded, and the swamps are not frozen.

Grooming does not start until Dec 1. and it remains to be seen if the groomers can even start due to the poor conditions.

Well, that kind of stinks. Hope the weather gets a little colder up there soon.

Pretty much like home, eh??? Unfrozen ground, and sloppy slush under our snow. Would have been nice riding without those two bad circumstances!!!

Our group usually tries to make it up the 2nd weekend (December 6-9 this year) and it works about 50% of the time. Low expectations of course, but we have never regretted coming up. Will check in later to get the local reports. Our lodging options are Houghton and Ironwood.

Yes, alot of ditches had water under the snow, but my boy did proceed to rip up the yard pretty good. Lol

Sad news in Green Bay too; yesterday the weatherman said 3-6 on Saturday, now almost all rain. No private land riding yet I guess

I hear that. They tore the Canal path/trail up too. That won't help matters any either.

I thought about going over and jumping on the canal, but figured it get tore up real fast. I'll probably hit it the next decent snow we get.

No good to ride here fuji. 4"inches of slush, and slop under our snow. Left them in the trailer. Nice on top, but you go right thru it. A real mess to try and plow too.

That weatherman is going to be sorry they changed their tune. Looks like 5-8 for Title Town.

Just got back from a quick walk around the Titletown district. Snowing and blowing pretty good. If this keeps up all night we'll easily have 8 inches on the ground by kickoff.

I noticed the casino in Watersmeet is advertising on their web site half off rooms thru Dec 24th with rooms now starting at $30. Sounds like a pretty good deal. http://www.lvdcasino.com/

This last warm up in the U.P. did not get very warm. I think today it topped out about 33 degrees and very little of the snow melted. In looking at the web cam at Land O'Lakes it looks like they got some snow today from this last storm.

6” on the ground in Greenland, with the bottom 2 crusty. I think our club will be out any day now if they haven’t already hit the billNichoks grade.
2” new over night. Guys have been riding but don’t expect big miles. Can you have a few smiles, sure.

I’ll checj and repost

Lenny, don't the groomers like to wait for at least 10 or so inches before they go out?
Thought I heard that somewhere.
