Trail Report – : Boulder Junction, Wisconsin – February 28, 2018

Reporter:boulderwi

Trail Conditions: Fair

Snow Cover: 10-12 inches

Date of Report: February 28, 2018

Area Report:

Trail report for February 28, 2018, Poor to Fair condition. The last two days with the temps in the 40’s and sunshine has degraded our trails drastically. The warm weather will continue through the week and the snow will continue to melt. There are bare spots and puddles on the trail with road routes very bare. There is some snow expected later tonight and tomorrow but is only supposed to be a dusting. When you get out in the woods the trails get better with a little more snow. The humps in the trail are melting into the low spots and leveling off the trail. Please be careful at road crossings where your skis of your snowmobile can get stuck on the bare blacktop. We just have to take what Mother Nature gives us. Remember to be safe, ride right, and enjoy the ride.

Trail Report – : Eagle River, Wisconsin – February 28, 2018

Reporter:Holly t

Trail Conditions: Fair

Snow Cover: Soft & mushy snow cover

Date of Report: February 28, 2018

Area Report:

February 28, 2018 – 6:50am

WARM WEATHER CONTINUES

The temps have been in the 40’s the last couple of days & will be there today as well.  Starting tomorrow temps will drop to the mid 30’s. Trails that were in Good or even better conditions have down graded to FAIR in many areas.  In town trails are POOR with very mushy conditions, water & bare roads.  Road trails for the most part have no snow on them.  Moving out of town conditions improve but it is a struggle to get to them without a bit of adventure sledding.  In woods trails particularly way out east, north & southwest are FAIR with even some areas of GOOD but this is getting far & few between. Trailering & dropping off to ride might be good.  No grooming until further notice.

Wednesday & Thursday Sno-Eagles Guided Trail rides have been canceled for now.

The section of the Chanticleer Inn Trail off of Trail 10E that takes riders to Eagle Lake is mushy & wet at the entrance heading to the lake.  Trail Boss is monitoring that area and will close if conditions continue.

Trail 1N logging operation continues in the section between the Town of Washington Town Hall & Eagle Lake. With the log piles and icy grainy conditions in that section it would be good to slow down. Minimal grooming due to the logging operation.

Catfish Lake Loop & Eagle Lake Trails are marked with orange easy to see reflective barrels.  Please stay by the barrels to be safe.  Reminder that the Catfish Lake Trail that ran from Braywood to Lumpy’s is not open.  Please do not trespass on private land.

To keep the riding season going it’s going to take everyone Doin’ the SNOW Dance & THINKING COLD!!

See ya on the trails  again real soon!

Trail Report – : Manitowish Waters, Wisconsin – February 27, 2018

Reporter:Manitowish Waters Chamber

Trail Conditions: Fair

Snow Cover: 16-22 inches

Date of Report: February 27, 2018

Area Report:

 Overall I would say our trails are fair to good.  Had a great ride yesterday!  Trails are still good in the woods and shaded areas but trails that run along roads are getting snow dirt mix.  The grade through Mercer was still ok yesterday – the sun will take a toll on exposed areas.  Watch the weather and I will update often this week.  There is a chance of snow Thursday! RIDE SAFE. 

News and Reports:

A huge thank you to all who attended the Winterfest Rendezvous and those who purchased tickets on our Arctic Cat Raffle.  Congratulations to winner Dave Mueller!  Dave is a club member and helps out at Our Duck Race!   
Thank you to all of our volunteers that made our event a huge success! Some of these guys took 2 days off of work to help set the tent and organize everything.  This is a lot of work, but so rewarding to know that it went so well! Proceeds from the Winterfest and raffles go towards trail maintenance!
I am proud of how everyone pitched in to make this such a great event: from the people and businesses who donated raffle items, to those who attended and purchased raffle tickets and especially the volunteers! We look forward to next years events!
