Trails Good 

January 29 2019 7:50am – 4 below zero – High of 0

The total of SNOW yesterday was 2 maybe 3 inches 6 miles east of Eagle River.  A little less heading west in town.  That added to the 5+- inches total last week all add up.  TRAILS ARE GOOD.  Hard ice base with SNOW on top.  Next SNOW later this afternoon.  No totals available.

Grooming continues.  Earlier grooming because of the cold temps.  Hard on the equipment when it’s cold & can be dangerous for the drivers.  Thumbs up to those drivers.

Cold is back.  Highs over the next few days:  6 below Wednesday. 2 below Thursday.  Then a balmy 11 above zero on Friday!  After that temps above zero during the day & even at night.  Looks like the best shot of Snow after today is next Monday  Stay tuned.

All in all trails are GOOD but very icy under the Snow.  Pays to slow down.  Straight away. Curves.  Everywhere.

Not much in the line of problem areas to report.  High hill section on Trail 70W.  A few spots on the north side of 10E. Road crossings. North part of 13N heading out of town is choppy. With the cold 10/13 aka Wisconsin River bridge & 3 aka Manske Swamp are frozen tight.

Worth repeating is that:

Sno-Eagles Country has 2 areas that have one-way trails.  10E is a one-way trail from the ERRA Sports Arena all the way out to Nicolet Mini Mart.  The other is the 13’s up near Buckatabon Bridge & Bauer’s Dam area.  Clearly marked with DO NOT ENTER signs.  Plus trail signs are backwards if you are going the wrong way.

EAGLE LAKE TRAIL & CATFISH LAKE TRAIL ARE MARKED & OPEN. Stay by the reflective orange barrels.

Trail Report – : Crivitz, Wisconsin – January 29, 2019

Reporter:ironsnowshoe

Trail Conditions: Excellent

Snow Cover: 12 inches

Date of Report: January 29, 2019

Area Report:

BRRRRRRRRR!!!

We received about 4 inches of snow.  Groomers have been out every day.  Trail is reported to be awesome.  That plowed field area south of the river trail is still a little rough.  The windy conditions blew the snow off this area.  It is still very passable.   With the cold temperatures coming in the next few days, trails will freeze up and hold up very well for the upcoming weekend, when temps are predicted to be in the 20’s.  

Groomers will be out all weekend.  Drive safe.

Trail Report – : Three Lakes – Brule River, Wisconsin – January 28, 2019

Reporter:Threelakeswi

Trail Conditions: Good

Snow Cover: 5-12”

Date of Report: January 28, 2019

Area Report:

Here are your current conditions:
Couple inches of fresh snow overnight and still snowing. All trails are being groomed 4-5 times a week. Trails have a great hard base. A few icy corners ans a few snirty spots, but overall trails in great condition.

Please, slow down and limit your drinking. Way too many fatalities in northern Wisconsin, and they all can be prevented.

Lakes are all marked. Remember, stay as close to the barrels as possible. If you don’t see barrels, assume they are not safe.

Please respect our private landowners and stay on the trail. We have had a couple issues this year already and it always puts our trails in danger.

Use caution at all road crossing as they are icy.

Trail Report – : Boulder Junction, Wisconsin – January 28, 2019

Reporter:boulderwi

Trail Conditions: Good

Snow Cover: 6-10 inches

Date of Report: January 28, 2019

Area Report:

Trail report for January 28, 2019 – Trails are good. Over the weekend we had bitter cold and not much snow. The traffic for the weekend was moderate. The trails remained flat for the most part. With the lack of snow, it is still very hard to fill holes and ruts in the trail. The corners and other areas are very icy. Please use caution. Snow is expected tonight thru tomorrow morning. The groomers will be out, and any significant amount of snow will improve the trail conditions. With the very cold temps cold weather injuries can increase. Be careful of any exposed skin. Remember to be safe, ride right, and enjoy the ride.

January 28 2019 7:08am – 4 below zero – High of 5 

Snow showers this morning.  Right now it looks to be less than an inch.  Today into tomorrow looks like maybe 2 inches according to the weather guys forecast.  That added to the 5+- inches at the end of last week all add up.  TRAILS ARE GOOD.  Hard ice base with Snow on top.  New fresh Snow on top.

Grooming continues.  Saw the groomer go by heading back in 7-8pm last night.  With the cold temps drivers are going out earlier to get back in earlier.  Hard on the equipment when it’s cold & can be dangerous for the drivers.

A little heat wave today with a high of 5.  Then back into the freezer.  Highs of 1 below Tuesday.  6 below Wednesday. 2 below Thursday.  Then a balmy 12 above zero on Friday!  Looks like the best shot of Snow is next weekend.  Stay tuned.

Riding this past weekend was heavier than expected.  Women on Snow group was in the area plus a lot of other large groups of riders.  Early last night most trails were hard Snow covered needing some fresh Snow.  With the cold Snow gets crusty.  There are some blow out areas on the northside of trails running along the roads.  Sections of 10E, 70W are a couple. Sun was out & think that is the cause. In town “the grade” Trails 13/3 is SNOW covered through town & going north & south. The main thing to remember is that under the Snow is pure ice in many places.  Please slow down.  Straight aways.  In corners.  Everywhere.

Worth repeating is that:

Sno-Eagles Country has 2 areas that have one-way trails.  10E is a one-way trail from the ERRA Sports Arena all the way out to Nicolet Mini Mart.  The other is the 13’s up near Buckatabon Bridge & Bauer’s Dam area.  Clearly marked with DO NOT ENTER signs.  Plus trail signs are backwards if you are going the wrong way.

EAGLE LAKE TRAIL & CATFISH LAKE TRAIL ARE MARKED & OPEN. Stay by the reflective orange barrels.
