We received about 8″ of new snow yesterday. Trails are shaping up. Our temps for the next few days highs will be in the 20’s with low in the teens. Expect icy corners. The Gogebic Trail Authority reported trails were last groomed 1/8/19. Trail 2 from Hurley to Ramsay Crossing is very good. Trail 2 from Ramsay Crossing to Wakefield was last groomed 1/8/19 is good and is icy; the hill climbs to Indianhead from Blackjack Big Snow Resort on the west side and east side climb up from Wakefield are icy. Wakefield to Marenisco is good to very good. There is logging 3 miles east of Wakefield use caution. Logging trucks have the right away so please give them the right of way.

Trail 160 is good; last groomed 1/4/19. The southern 10 miles is a bit rough yet. The northern 15 miles is beautiful. There are a few water holes about 5 miles north of Ironwood. They are small but the hazards exist. Ride with caution.
Trail 11S CLOSED was last groomed on 1/2/19. The water hazard had over 8″ of ice, some spots 12″ and it broke back open.
