Area Report:
We are back in business. Groomers are out on all trails getting them back in shape after the high temps and million riders from last weekend. All trails are open except #122 between Lake Linden and Gay, because of logging. Stay off of this! You can take the trail as far as the Dreamland trail so that you can go out to Dreamland, but no farther. Trail #133 between Gay and Lac Labelle is rough, be prepared if you take this trail. We got about an inch of snow last night so parking lots have a covering but main roads are mostly bare. Forecast is for temps below freezing for the weekend and snow every day starting tonight. Lake effect will kick in tomorrow, so no telling how much snow we will get. Then snow next week too. After the groomers have gone over all the trails, they should be in good condition. The only reason they were in poor condition is because the groomers couldn’t go out since Saturday and there were so many riders out there.
Remember to respect private property and others on the trail, stay on the marked, groomed trails, stay off all water unless its marked for crossing, slow down, and save the drinking for after the riding!
Happy Trail from the Trail Goddess!

Ely Area Lakes & Trails: Area trails have a base ranging from 0-4” and are rated as poor. Anticipate rough trail conditions as trail grooming will not commence until temperatures drop below 20 degrees and we receive 6-8” of new snow. Area lakes will have areas of slush. Remain on staked trails when traveling across lakes. Creeks and low lying areas may have open or standing water.
Echo Trail: Fenske Lake and other short trails along the Echo Trail are staked.
Taconite Trail: Snow – 5-15” depth Base – 0-4” Groomed – yes Condition – poor The entire Taconite from Ely to Hwy 73 is in poor condition. There is a small section of open water between Big Aspen and Pfeiffer Lake that is flagged, signed, and passable.
Arrowhead Trail: Snow – 8-18” depth Base – 0-4” Groomed – yes Condition – poor The entire Arrowhead is groomed and in poor condition. Use caution when crossing the bridge in the Lost Lake swamp due to thin ice and open water. This bridge is located two miles north on the Arrowhead from the Hwy 1 crossing.
