Snowmobile Report – February 16, 2023
Ashland County trails are reported in FAIR conditions. Now that the measurable rain has stopped and the temperature is dropping, the trails are turning to ice. Groomers are going out to smooth out the trails but be prepared for icy corners, hills and intersections. There may even be some bare spots. Please slow down, stay right, and be prepared for changing snow conditions. Logging will be taking place February 10th for 2 weeks on Trail 8 from Parker Rd to White Bass Road. Please use caution and ride safe. Only 200 feet of trail will be dozed on each side. Detour has been posted on Trail 12. Beaware of more traffic in that area due to logging in progress. Area affectied is by Agenda Rd and Blueberry Rd. Enjoy your ride and stay safe!
Snowmobile Information:
Please stay on the trail. A lot of Ashland County snowmobile trails are on farmers land, please be respectful so we don’t lose our easement to their property. Snowmobiles may not be modified, or operated, to amplify or otherwise increase the total vehicle noise above the originally manufactured snowmobile noise level.
As always please follow the snowmobile trail rules and regulations.
As always operate with everyone’s safety in mind and report any hazardous trail issues that are observed to the Ashland County Sheriff’s Department (715-682-7023 opt 1) so that it can be forwarded to the appropriate service.
The Tri-County Corridor is open from Superior to Ashland. There are still several areas on the eastern end that require attention but all known hazards have been identified and marked. Use caution when approaching ribbons, barricades, and cones.
Important reminders: There is no snowmobiling allowed from Ashland to Bad River/Odanah as snowmobiling is not permitted on reservation land. However, snowmobiling is allowed from Bad River east to the Upper Peninsula of Michigan.
