I just rode trail 100W(jumped on at south west end of Gogebic) to trail 1 to Marenisco on Saturday. It was thin on snow, but it was open.
I just checked DNR website, and it shows closed. Odd. I talked to the sheriff in Marensico and he was heading east on that trail.
Not certain about anything east of the lake though.

From Gogebic Area Grooming Facebook page. All of trail 100 (between 1 and 13) is closed for logging. This means no access to the south end of lake gogebic. Also closed, is part of trail 13 south of lake gogebic down to trail 2. Well, that really s*$ks.

13 between trail 100 and 2 has been closed all season so far. 13 north of 100 is open. With 100 being closed pretty much chokes that whole area off.

This is not true, trail 13 has been open between 100 and 2, because I’ve been on it and saw tracks coming off it onto trail 2 just a couple hours ago.

Well that is good according to gogebic area grooming and Polaris ride command it is closed due to logging. Hopefully it's open it's a nice trail. Perhaps they figured out a reroute around the logging?Unfortunately I have seen tracks all the time on closed trails.

I’m not saying it’s open just saying it hasn’t been closed all year, it may have just got shut down but they have not put any closed signs at trail intersection of 2 and 13. So my thought is 13 is open just not 100 or they are going to be having a bunch of people driving up 13 and having to turn around which would suck.

Wow 1 is open the whole way. When was the last time 1 was open the whole way? That is good. Also nice to see 13 is open the whole way. Goofy do you know why 102/11 is not being groomed. Goofy how is it going east out of Watersmeet.

102 does get groomed, but I don’t know on what schedule. About 11 are you referring to going towards Winchester? If so that was done over last night I believe but I also don’t know what their schedule is for that either. I have not been east of trail 107 but from Watersmeet to trail 3 is still a little thin with some rocks but people are riding the heck out of it.

Question - Can you get on the bottom of Lake Gogebic from 1 or 100? Coming from Marenisco. Much Thanks.

If you read the entire Gogebic Area grooming Facebook post....u cannot get to the southern part of the lake from Marinesco as 100 is closed. Also in that post it says that 13 is closed south of 100 to trail 2. Seems very confusing based on comments above.

Trail 1 has been open all season on the west side of Lake Gogebic and has been the last couple of years

Only way I can think of is if you go up stage coach rd then take 525 road to the west and jump on at the bottom.

I know a couple of winters ago a pretty big portion of 1 was closed. I can't speak for last year as we never rode around Lake Gogebic. Somehow missed it was open in early December but then again we did start heading down it and it just didn't have enough snow on it so we turned around.
