EAGLE RIVER TRAILS MOSTLY FAIR WITH GOOD RIDING CONDITION

2022 Eagle River Ice Castle – Trail 10/13N in town by the Historic Railroad Depot
Built by the Eagle River Fire Department, City of Eagle River
& the Many, Many Volunteers of our Community

January 14, 2022 – 7:55 am 5 degrees – High of 13 today

Temps in the teens for highs for the entire weekend. Next chance of SNOW is Sunday in the morning & Monday night. Looks like less than a inch both days. Tuesday forecast SNOW all day off & on with maybe 2 inches. Could use more. START DOIN’ THE SNOW DANCE!!

The base of 7 inches +- that is frozen hard is holding. There is loose hard SNOW in most areas but crunchy with not much moisture. SNOW depth is about 14 inches There are a few icy corners. Not as many as I expected. All in all trails are Fair with many Good areas. Was happy to see trails are SNOW covered with the exception of some of the approaches to crossing. Even through town was Fair. But we really need more FRESH SNOW. A good 60 plus mile ride is taking 10E off Alt Trail 13S. It connects with the Three Lakes Trails & takes you into Three Lakes. Lots of woods riding. A favorite of mine.

Update on grooming equipment. For the last week plus the Sno-Eagles have only had 2 groomers out steadily. The 3rd piece has been experiencing electrical problems & has not been out very much. Report from Club VP is that all 3 groomers will be out this weekend!! When you see ’em move over & stop. Then give ’em a thumbs up!

The Groomer Tracking System AP (GTS) shows most trails groomed last night. Here are the trails sections NOT groomed. Pick up a map to see exact locations

Section of Trail 10/13N from Hwy G to where the trail comes out on Adams Rd – North of Eagle River – Not groomed.
Trail 3 aka Manske Swamp – the trail that runs between Trail 17N & Trail 10/13N – north of Eagle River. Hwy 45N
Club trail we call Uncle Kent that runs from Hwy G crossing to the west & connects to Trail 10W.
Trail 17S that connects to Sugar Camp trails heading south along Hwy 17
Trail 7 that heads west off of Trail 17S. We call it the Paintball Field. It connects to the Sugar Camp trails near Kathan Inn along Hwy H west of Eagle River.

Catfish & Eagle lake trails were marked & are NOW OPEN. To be safe stay by the orange reflective barrels. Note the spur from the northside Eagle Lake boat launch that leads to Eagle Waters is NOT OPEN at this time.   Work in progress. Stay tuned.

There is a re route on 10/13/7/17 heading west. Did stump grinding to help smooth out the area. New SNOW has helped that area a lot.

Sure would like trail photos so I can post to the report to let other riders see the real time conditions. Send them to info@baysidelodgingrentals.com

KEEP DOIN’ THE SNOW DANCE!

See ya on the trails!!

Trail Report – : Rhinelander, Wisconsin – January 13, 2022

Reporter:Hodag SnoTrails

Trail Conditions: Good

Snow Cover: Good Base

Date of Report: January 13, 2022

Area Report:

Trails are still in good base. There hasn’t been any measurable fresh snow in the past several days. The groomers have been out on every night. All lakes are marked and seem to be in good shape. The Wisconsin River (Boom lake) always has some added risk due to all of the multiuse traffic on the lake, and with roads being plowed across it. Stay close to the barrels for best experience.

There is one trail closure on the Hodag Sno-Trails system: Trail H4 from Boom Lake to the intersection just north of River Rd. This is basically the “land” route to not running Boom Lake. The trail is closed at this point. We have been just notified that this is a permanent closure. Running the lake is the reroute. The club will continue to look for another “land route” but it probably won’t happen for this season.

Have a good weekend, and stay safe
