We took off at 1pm and headed towards lake Gogebic. We stopped for gas in Presque Isle, but they were out of premium gas so we had to call the Marenisco gas station to see if they had any. Luckily they did. Trail 6 into Presque Isle had it’s usual ruts from traffic, but overall it was in decent shape. Trail 1 to Marenisco was also rutted up from traffic, but we passed the groomer, then it was great! After getting gas we made it to Gogebic Lodge to watch the Packers vs Bears. When the game was over we took the same route back.
The lake has snow on it, but some spots are down to the ice due to the wind drifting the snow away. We got lucky again and followed the groomer for quite a ways. Our tracks were the first ones since the groomer went through, needless to say it was excellent! As I write this, the temperature is -7 (without the wind chill).
