Trail Report – : Sayner, Wisconsin – March 25, 2026

Reporter:SaynerStar Lake Barnstormers

Trail Conditions: Fair

Snow Cover: Dwindling

Date of Report: March 25, 2026

Area Report:

The majority of Vilas county trails are closing Thursday, March 26 @ 8:00 AM.  The alliance had previously voted to allow individual clubs to stay open at their own discretion.  The following clubs have chosen to remain open because there is still decent riding to be found in the woods:  Boulder Junction, Land O’ Lakes, Presque Isle, and Sayner.

Staying open a few more days allows some of the die-hard locals to get their final riding done.  You may have to ride through some crappy areas to find the good stuff, but if you are willing to do this, go for it!  The final mandatory closing date is March 31.  Each club will have to determine for themselves whether to hold out till the 31st or not.

Be aware that Star Lake and Plum Lake are no longer marked.  Lake riding is not advised.

Thanks for an amazing season!!

PORTIONS OF THE VILAS COUNTY SNOWMOBILE TRAIL SYSTEM TO CLOSE ON THURSDAY, MARCH 26th, 2026, at 8:00 A.M. Warm weather has taken a toll on most trails with many areas showing bare ground and pavement. The following trail systems will close at 8:00 a.m. on Thursday, March 26th, 2026: Arbor Vitae trail system, Conover trail system, Eagle River trail system, Lac Du Flambeau trail system, Manitowish Waters trail system, Phelps trail system, and the St. Germain trail system. The only systems to remain open are the Boulder Junction trail system, Land O’ Lakes trail system, Presque Isle trail system, and Sayner trail system. The Vilas County Snowmobile Ordinance prohibits snowmobiles from operating on the trail system when closed. Trail users are reminded that they may encounter gated sections where systems are closed and are asked to only travel on open trails. The attached map shows highlighted sections which are areas that are open (this is not an official survey map and actual open trail location may be different). For more information, please contact Todd Bierman at: tobier@vilascountywi.gov or call (715) 479-5160.
