Looking for info on the trail system from st ignace to munising and eastward to detour/Drummond island. I'm planning on going there next weekend and wonder how the trails held out to the warm up. Thanks.

I'm looking to leave for Christmas the 3 - 7th. I'm curious to hear to. The trail cams don't look good at all

Ok have a trail update for you guys. I was up for 5 days and out of Christmas. Plenty of snow but this was this was the worst trips I've had due to lack of grooming!!!!! I just got home yesterday and had to drive through blizzard like conditions. Tons of snow but very poor trail maintenance!! Only saw one groomer the entire trip and supposivly all the groomers are up and running according to locals. if you took trail 8 out of Christmas to Whetmore they were awesome and groomed and I believe it is 412 up to castle rock was awesome!!! Now for the bad from Whitmore all the way to Gran Marals trail 8 was 3-4 foot chop the worst we have seen. we stoped at the Bear Trap and had to turn around people at the bar trap said the whoops continued all the way to gran marals. Going west on 417 as soon as you turn off 8 was all chop all the way to Marquette. We stoped at the casino near Harvy and turned around. If you were to take trail 8 tawards Chatham it turned in to chop as well we had to turn around. Lastly 7 south to Manistique wasent to bad but had long sections of 3-4 foot whoops but we gutted it out and made it. We did take 41 back north and I will say 41 was good!! Over all I am very disappointed in the grooming They just wernt getting out. we left earley to beat the traffic and the trails were the same as the night before and just continued to get worse!!!!!! I hate driving 7 hours to get these conditions!!!!

I was in grand marais and rode to munising once. It never stopped snowing. Trail 89 was groomed nightly. 8 and 88 were very good too. All to the west of grand marais. We ran 8 east one day and turned back early because of whoops. I found riding at night and early morning the best. Easier to see bumps etc. and the traffic was light. I saw groomers out three different times. I will 100% go back to
