TRAILS ARE CURRENTLY CLOSED. PLEASE CHECK BACK FOR UPDATES!
Snowmobile Information:
With new snow at the end of last week, conditions have greatly improved across most of the area. Our corridor trails have been groomed repeatedly over the weekend, marsh areas have been getting packed, and we can safely say we have early/late-season conditions. New snow and a brief warm-up will only help cement our current base. With any help from Mother Nature, we should get these trails open for you soon!
TRAILS ARE NOT CURRENTLY OPEN YET!

Area Report:
January 22, 2024
Land trails are open but in poor condition with marginal snow, exposed rocks, and ruts. A few groomers have been out to do some panning and lay the snow flat, other than that, groomers will not be out until we get more snow. You can follow the groomer operations on the GTS app for the most up to date information.
Private property gates, specifically ones that cross swamps and waterways, are not open yet.
The cold weather has been helpful with lakes. Those lakes that are staked are:
Moose Lake
Nelson Lake
Barker Lake
Spider Lake
Tiger Cat Flowage
Lost Land Lake
Much of the Chippewa Flowage ***see the note below on the details of where on the Flowage is staked and where is not***
Chippewa Flowage Specifics:
WEST SIDE: trail is staked from trail 9 by Chief Lake Lodge Bar & Grill / Pat’s Landing Resort up to Highway CC connecting to the east side, and up to trail 3 and 9. All businesses on the west side (Pat’s, Chief, Chippewa Pines Resort, Big Musky Resort, Sisko’s Pine Point Resort, and The Landing) have staked or are finishing staking to the main trail today as well.
EAST SIDE: trail is staked from Treeland Resorts / R & R Bayview Resort & Restaurant, and Dun Rovin Resort past Deerfoot Lodge & Resort down to Shady Nook Resort and up to Johnson’s Resort on Trail 1N.
PLEASE NOTE: Trail 6 up the river channel to Deer Run Resort and Musky Tale Resort is not yet staked and needs more time for the ice thickness to improve. You can access those businesses via the road route. Trail 18 near the Winter dam is also not yet staked.
For your safety and the safety of others following your tracks – DO NOT RIDE UNSTAKED TRAILS
There are no additional updates on lakes at this time. Please DO NOT ride on lakes that are not staked.

EAGLE RIVER TRAILS
Remain CLOSED
The Vilas County Snowmobile Alliance meeting Wednesday evening, January 18. All 11 Clubs discussed the potential of opening the trails. The vote was NOT to open the trails at this time. Below is the PSA forwarded by the Parks and Rec Supervisor following the meeting.
All trails in Sno-Eagles Country were panned over the last few days. The Manske Swamp – Trail 3 and Wisconsin River Trail – 10W/13N are not being panned both areas need to freeze up harder. Both areas have been packed by snowmobiles and are good to go.
There have been re routes and closures of trails. Here’s a 2023-2024 Sno-Eagles trail map. Right click to enlarge.

In the meantime the Eagle River Sno-Eagles are panning land trails and packing any remaining wet, soft areas. The Wisconsin River section of 10W/13N is still not safe to ride. At present the gates to that area are shut. The rest of the trails are frozen with a few small mushy spots. Saw some a week ago on 13/17S along Hwy 17S a week ago which pretty are now frozen as it has been very cold.
There have been re routes and closures of trails. When trails are ready to open I will list the changes
