Trail Overview

Silver Creek is a 50-Inch ORV trail located North of Newberry in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan. This is a black dirt trail with some sand. Silver Creek tends to be a tighter than most 50-inch trails, so when riding with wider vehicles take caution of the roots and stumps on both sides of the trail. This low traffic trail does not develop the whoops that some of the trails further south do. Giving riders the opportunity for a fast smooth ride. This particular loop is prone to roots and downed trees, so ride with caution. One keynote that all should be aware of, is that there is a .7 Mile section at the Southeast corner section of the published loop that is permanently closed. This particular OnX route has a work around for that section. But know that there is no passage through this part of the MI DNR published map.

Trail is overgrown with vegetation. You can follow the trail fairly easy. You will run across a lot of branches hanging into the trail. The trail itself was a good ride.

Downed tree. Was able to cross it in my KLR650 so it’s doable. Rest of the trail was in good shape

Large water crossing about 2 feet deep passable for a skilled rider

Got through 3/4 of the trail and got to a flooded out area. Had to turn around and take the road back out. Circled the approximate area of the flooded spot. Other than that the trail was a blast. Not very many wide open areas, a lot of tight turns and roots and trees.
