EAGLE RIVER TRAILS
SNOWING HEAVILY AT 8:00AM
As you ride should you come across any issues pleased call Dan at 262.951.6519.

Easily 6+ SNOW between yesterday & this morning!  Still SNOWING heavily 6 miles east of Eagle River!  Weather Guys say continued SNOW ’til noon.  This SNOW is running in line where most SNOW will fall in a line running a little west of Rhinelander, Eagle River & Land o’ Lakes, heading to the east.  So SNOW should be good in Forest & maybe Florence counties.  Unsure what SNOW western Vilas will get. Temps dropping a bit tonight.  Highs for the next 5 days in the 20’s or teens during the day. Teens or single digits at night.  Bit more SNOW tomorrow.  NO EVIL SUN!

All 3 Sno-Eagles groomers out last night into this morning.  Full grooming of all 80+ miles. Will be riding later today & will repost if any issue areas.

************************************
Daily Reminders:   
*Reminder that Trail 13S does not run all the way to Three Lakes as a portion was closed.  The Club is working on a reroute.
*Eagle Lake was marked by businesses. There are 3 color safety lights at entrance & exit from/to the lake trail.  There are mogul drifts along the barrels so recommend slowing down. Lots of SNOW mist so leave space between you & rider in front. 

*Catfish Lake is NOT MARKED. Uncertain it will open as there are no businesses open on the lake this winter.  If you have not ridden the lake in the past DO NOT ATTEMPT at night. There are spots that can be thin or even open water. NO safety lights
