Sponsor needed to help groom UP snowmobile trails

MARQUETTE, MI--   The Michigan Department of Natural Resources is looking for a sponsor for Central U.P. trails.

The DNR needs a local club or nonprofit group to partner in the grooming of about 60 miles of trail in Marquette County. The areas include 23 miles along Trail No. 8 between the Crossroads area in Sands Township and Little Lake; seven miles southwest of Gwinn on Trail No. 32; and 32 miles of Trail No. 33 between Gwinn and Arnold.

DNR officials say without a grooming sponsor for those areas, connection would be lost between the Little Lake-Gwinn and Marquette-Negaunee areas. They say Gwinn would be completely cut off from the snowmobile trail system.

For more information, call Rob Katona at 228-6561.
