Trail Report – : Conover, Wisconsin – March 15, 2026

Reporter:snobuddies

Trail Conditions: Good

Snow Cover: 18’+

Date of Report: March 15, 2026

Area Report:

We went out last night and groomed our trails. It was a little bit of everything, some areas bare from evil sun, a few water spots, then in others there was enough snow to have small moguls. Started snowing around 11pm on Saturday night and hasn’t stopped. This will take care of the bare road routes.

Be aware that some lakes are no longer marked with barrels. In our area, Pioneer Lake and Buckatabon Lake have pulled the barrels off. North Twin Lake is still marked. Stay by the barrels when crossing.

The Cemetery Trail from Muskrat Creek Rd south to Church Rd is closed. Also the Chicago Ave spur trail off of Trail 3 is closed due to standing water on the trail. Just south of there is the Sno-Eagles 10/13 trail that goes west off of Trail 3 crossing the Wisconsin River is closed also. As you ride in other areas of Vilas County, be aware there are other trails closed due to swamps opening up with standing water. And with the amounts of snow they are calling for and high winds, there might be trees coming down blocking the trails.

We won’t be grooming on Sunday night due to the limited visibility. We will check on it Monday and see what we can do. It might be best to let the sleds beat the snow down. Either way, we have the snow to hopefully carry us a few more weeks. The trails will close for the season on March 31st regardless.

Ride Right, Ride Safe.

Trail Report – : Conover, Wisconsin – March 13, 2026

Reporter:snobuddies

Trail Conditions: Good

Snow Cover: 10-12”

Date of Report: March 13, 2026

Area Report:

Vilas County trails officially open back up on Saturday March 14th at 8am.

We received another good 7+” of wet snow. Trails are being panned and inspected on Friday. We will not have the cemetery trail open due to the water in the swamp in there. Pioneer Lake and Buckatabon Lake are not marked with barrels at this time, they have been pulled off for the season. North Twin Lake is marked, stay by the barrels if you cross it.

As you ride, several other clubs will not be taking their grooming equipment through swamp areas, so if the trail is not closed by a gate, it may be rough. Other areas will have gates closed. Be aware as you ride.

We are supposed to get a lot more snow on Sunday which could make travel hazardous.

Regardless of how much snow we have, the trails will close on March 31st at midnight.

Ride Right, Ride Safe

Trail Report – : Sayner, Wisconsin – March 13, 2026

Reporter:SaynerStar Lake Barnstormers

Trail Conditions: Early Season

Snow Cover: Increasing!

Date of Report: March 13, 2026

Area Report:

Vilas county has announced that trails will officially reopen tomorrow morning at 8:00 AM (Saturday, March 14)!

We are essentially starting from scratch after the springlike weather last week. The new snow has not yet had a chance to freeze to the base, so you will need to ride with caution. Some road routes may still be thin. Expect that corners will not hold snow for long, so they will be icy and very slick! Star Lake is still marked and Plum Lake has been remarked. Please stay close to the markings as there are some homeowners that have aerators near their docks and ice may not be safe.

The winter storm expected over the next two days will likely bring down more trees & branches. Please anticipate that you may come across a few obstacles! We would certainly appreciate your help in getting them cleared from the trail.

The Barnstormers will be out grooming today and tonight so that our entire system will be groomed by opening tomorrow morning. We’ll be continuing with our regular grooming schedule until trails close.

Don’t forget about the drawing to give away a 2025 Polaris 650 VR-1! There is still time to purchase raffle tickets! The drawing will be held at Sayner Pub on Saturday, March 14! Beginning at 11:00 am, there will be food & raffles all day up until the snowmobile drawing at 5:00!!
