Ogemaw Hills Pathway

Ogemaw Hills Pathway is a short, out-and-back cross-country ski route in Michigan's Ogemaw Hills, about 4.4 miles from the town of Campbells Corners. The trail is 1.4 miles long, with a total elevation gain of 255 feet, and it is rated hard. The climb is steepest at about 0.49 miles, where the grade reaches 11 percent. Winter is the natural season for this route. Typical averages from a nearby weather station show January highs around 27°F with about 11 snow days, while March brings highs near 41°F and fewer snow days. That station sits roughly 440 feet lower than the trail, so temperatures on the path run cooler. For a change of pace, the Rifle River, a river fishing spot, lies about 7.1 miles away.
