Copper Country 100

Round 9

Houghton, MI

Copper Country 100

Presented by Visit Keweenaw

March 28, 2026

Earlier this week, we announced that the Porcupine Mountains 100 would be canceled and that we would searching for a replacement event. With only nine days to finalize details for a new race, the process of securing a venue was understandably challenging. Typically, planning an event of this scale takes a full year of preparation, but we worked quickly to bring everything together under tight timelines.

Despite the constraints, we are thrilled to confirm that we have successfully secured a venue and are ready to proceed: Copper Country 100 in Houghton, MI will now be the March 28th race. The Houghton area has received 329 inches of snow so far this winter creating a great environment for riders despite the late winter conditions.

We want to extend our heartfelt thanks to everyone who supported this effort—whether by volunteering to help, offering encouragement, or providing guidance. The outpouring of assistance and positive messages has meant a great deal to us throughout this process.

Tuesday, we started exchanging messages with the Houghton group and on Wednesday we had a conference call, it became clear that our concerns about an entirely new venue were no longer an issue. We are especially grateful to Visit Keweenaw, Moyle Companies, Great Lakes Minerals, Keweenaw Snowmobile Club & South Range Snowmobile Club and all partners involved for their flexibility and willingness to help make this event happen on such short notice.

We will be working closely with the Copper Country 100 group to finalize all remaining details, including logistics, scheduling, lodging, banquet details, and course updates. Additional information will be shared soon.

Thank you again for your support—we look forward to delivering a memorable event.

Course is 7-8 miles in length
