Area Report:
The good news isthat the Phelps trails have been inspected and are ready for the county trail opening. The bad news is, there isn’t any snow. There is colder weather inthe forecast which will help freeze our wet and swampy areas as well as give us some good ice on our lakes. It is to the point that we need to start doing your snow dance or get down on your knees and pray for snow. Please stay off the trails until they are offically opened and stay off the lakes until they are marked. Stay safe and ride smart.

Time to THINK COLD!
Then start DOIN’ THE SNOW DANCE
Trails in Eagle River & All of Vilas County CLOSED
Good morning. Trails are still closed in the Eagle River area & all of Vilas County. Temps still bouncing up & down. 19 overnight with a high of 27 today. A schiff of SNOW on the ground, which is finally freezing up. So you know what you need to do…….THINK COLD. Getting COLD over night but still getting too warm during the day. Then we can start doing the SNOW DANCE.
Vilas County Forestry, Recreation & Land department trail inspections continue. Don continues his inspections everyday. Nearly all of the 11 Clubs have been inspected as of this morning.
Swamps & wet areas are beginning to freeze up but we sure could use some frigid cold weather. Then SNOW! Right now Vilas county we are still in deer hunts. So the trails cannot open until all hunts are done & SNOW & TRAIL CONDITION PERMIT. The 9 day season is done. This past Monday the 10 muzzleloader season ends at dusk today. Then one more hunt. The 4 day antlerless hunt which ends this Sunday, December 13.
Trail 13 that heads west of Eagle River has a re route in the section that comes out on Oak Lane by the Pine Gables Restaurant. There is new construction going on so the club has done a temporary move over of the trail. The club is working with the Vilas Forestry, Recreation and Land department to complete the permanent re route which will be in place for the 2021-2022 season. If you are familiar with that trail rather than the 2 corners at the west end by Oak Lane it will go straight ahead.
Also the lake spur off of the Eagle Lake Trail that take you to Eagle Waters Resort is back open!!! The own Laura Koranda & adjacent landowners worked hard to have this happen!
No doubt about it we need COLD & SNOW. Can’t wait to see ya all out on the trails!
THINK COLD!

Area Report:
Update: Our trails are in as of this week! Thank you to all of our volunteers that made this happen this fall! There is snow in the forecast however it is early and there is no frost in the ground! It looks like there is a lot of uncertainty with this storm this weekend so we will see how much we actually get! Please check back with us regarding updates. If anything changes regarding trails opening/closing, conditions, etc. The rule of thumb is the Walworth County Snow Phone is the first and best source for the most accurate report. If there is not an updated message on the snow phone then trails remain closed! SNOW PHONE 262-742-2664. We will also update our website, Facebook page, Snowtracks, and Travel Wisconsin if there is anything to update on. However the snow phone is the go to first source! Let’s hope we get a whole bunch of snow and we have something to report back on here! If not we will update once things change. PLEASE REMEMBER TO STAY OFF CLOSED TRAILS! If Trails are closed and you are on them you are trespassing. Check back with one of the sources mentioned for updates. Happy Holidays! LET IT SNOW!
