Snowmobiling in Northern Michigan and the Upper Peninsula
March 31, 2026 – 11:50 pm update: – TUESDAY NIGHT – It’s the official end of the official Michigan Snowmobile Season for 2025 – 2026. Grooming has ended for the season with some groomers making a final run today. You can still ride so it is not the end of snowmobiling yet. Just make sure to not go around closed gates or snowmobile on PRIVATE PROPERTY. There are still trails to ride on public land in the Keweenaw Peninsula. Check this final Keweenaw Peninsula Trail Report – 03/31 for some good info on trails that you can ride. There is some riding north of Newberry in the Eastern U.P. also on trails on public land.
