Wolverine Ski Trails

Wolverine Nordic is a non-profit, tax-exempt organization with the mission to preserve and promote nordic skiing, snowshoeing, hiking, biking and lifelong physical fitness on the Gogebic Range of the Western Upper Peninsula of Michigan and Northeastern Wisconsin.

Recent History

In 1976 the Wolverine Committee submitted a proposal for a DNR grant to construct a five kilometer trail which looped around the hills between the Wolverine site and Grand View Hospital. A second beginning loop was also included to the west of the ski jump. The XC trails became operational for 1976-77 winter season. In 1981 Wolverine Nordic Ski Club, Inc was formed. The club has expanded the trail system, (the Powderhorn trail, Cliff Trail, Cliff Hanger, Ottawa loop) built a warming shelter, a garage and purchased grooming equipment to maintain the trail system. Future plans that have been discussed are creating more beginner level trails and to cooperate with Big Powderhorn Mt. to develop more trails that will link into the Wolverine trail system.
