EAGLE RIVER TRAILS
Remain CLOSED

No new news. The Vilas County Snowmobile Alliance have NOT voted to NOT open the trails should SNOW arrive.  With that said it is looking like no opening this year. Haven’t seen a sledding season like this in a long time.  Last I remember was in the mid-80’s. Actually much of the 80’s were up & down. With low SNOW in the early 90’s.  Then we got clobbered with SNOW in ’95. Spoke to a man who remembers in 1973 there was little or no SNOW.  He remembered as it was the year he moved up to Eagle River. 

In the meantime come on up and patronize the local businesses!

Date of Report: March 4, 2024

Area Report:

Vilas County Snowmobile trails remain closed at this time. 

It’s not looking good for the trails to open at all this year. Looking at a long range forecast, the temps are suppose to be above average for the first 3 weeks of March. The last week of March is showing a possible cool down. At that point, it might be too little, too late. 

Thanks to everyone that participated in this years Poker Run. With no snow, we still had a great number of cards purchased. The winning hand was a Straight Flush, and the other 4 all had Full House hands. 

And a big thank you to all the participating taverns, restaurants, Landover ATV club for selling cards to participants of their club rides, and all that donate items for Raffle baskets. We couldn’t do it with out your help.

Reporter:Stretch

Trail Conditions: Poor

Snow Cover: 0″-1″ base

Date of Report: February 27, 2024

Area Report:

Not very good news to report. Our trails are in very poor shape with little to no snow for a base. They are calling for snow tomorrow and Wednesday but back in the 40’s on Saturday. Unfortunately March is not looking any better for trail riding. It’s definitely been a season for the record books that I never want to beat.
