Trail Report: Crivitz, Wisconsin – January 30, 2017

Trail Conditions: Fair

Snow Cover: 5 to 6 inches

Date of Report: January 30, 2017

Area Report:

We heard from some friends that there is still some decent trails out there, so we decided to take a ride yesterday.  We put on about 125 miles.  Here is what we found.  The trail had plenty of ice base and some snow for lube and cooling.  We went north of Crooked Lake and up toward Silver Cliff.  This was decent.  Trails north of Highway C are in good shape.  Riding north and west and riding some of the connecting club trails we found very good riding.  The east end of our trails and the high traffic areas are very thin on snow. 

I see another weather pattern entering our area later today.  We will update you on that.

News and Reports:

Saturday, February 11 – High Falls Fish-o-Rama and Radar Run

Saturday, February 18 – Crooked Lake Fish-o-Rama

Saturday, February 27-Vintage Sled Ride at Thunder Lake Lodge

Trail Report: Oconto County, Wisconsin – January 30, 2017

Trail Conditions: Good

Snow Cover: 5-9

Date of Report: January 30, 2017

Area Report:

Townsend – Red Arrow Snowmobile – ATV Club – The trails are in GOOD TO VERY GOOD riding condition thru the Red Arrow system. Bare in mind that there are icy spots and an occasional rock, but overall considering what we have been through, there is some darn nice riding to be had. Some of the snow has become sugary in some areas, but not to worry the weather man is calling for some fresh snow on Monday. 

Lakewood – Paul Bunyan Snowmobile Club – All trails groomed out great last night. There are a few thin areas but overall are in good to very good condition. There is a water problem behind Backwoods Bar & Grill off county T. 

Bagley and Brazeau – Joyriders Trails -I hate to report this but we are keeping the trails close for the weekend, do to the water on the trails and fields have very little snow on them also we only ended up with 1/2”of snow no good for grooming. Maybe Monday we will get more snow and then we can open the trails back up

Gillett Sno ATV Riders – Trails are in poor condition.  We will not be grooming until we receive more snow. We ask that people stay off the trails until we get more snow and cooler weather.

 

Chute Pond Snowmobile Club – Chute Pond trails are open, and grooming on a regular basis. Our trails are thin, with a very icy base- which with even light traffic gets exposed in and around the corners. 

The Nicolet State Trail (railroad grade) is in poor condition south of Breed, and in fair to good condition north of Breed. Wooded trails west of Hwy 32 are in groomed and in fair to mostly good condition- wooded trails east of Hwy 32 are still a work in progress. Groomers are trying to improve their condition- but for now they’re in poor to fair condition, with some areas better than fair.

Please be aware that the groomers may be out day and night as needed to get the trails back into shape. Please watch out for the groomers, and give them space when you see them.

Expect some rough and bare spots, some standing water and slushy spots, and probable icy areas, especially near the corners. Please ride with caution- and stay on the marked trails.

Oconto Falls – Sno Jokers Trails –  Trails are CLOSED.

Lena Snow Drifters – Trails are CLOSED.
Chase Sno-Chasers – Trails are CLOSED.

Snow Cover: 12-14″

Date of Report: January 30, 2017

Area Report:

Got a few inches of snow sunday morning. This will really help with the roads and lubrication. With the upcoming forecast of more snow, I would start making plans for some awesome mid week riding or taking Friday off and heading to Three Lakes early. We are still grooming as needed. Lakes are slushy, but still safe. Stay close to the barrels.

All trails were groomed last night with the exception of the WI River Bridge portion of Trails 10W/13N. Still wet out there.

Temps dropped again last night so the trails are hard, smooth & icy. About an inch of snow on average in Eagle River area on top.

No totals.  Stay tuned.  It will be teens or single digits at night all week.

Catfish Lake Loop & Eagle Lake Trail are OPEN & safe by the orange reflective barrels.  

No problem areas to report except that under the snow it is icy so it is slippery.  Slow down on straight aways & corners.

If you are riding keep the Emergency 3 Digit Numbers in mind.  If you need assistance with an emergency call 911 & give them the most recent number you saw.  This helps dispatch pin point your location.

Area Report:

Did a lot of riding the past 2 days with Dan, Mark, and Joe. Most trails were very good. Bond Falls was great, Trail to Maple View, Club 45, Dublins all great. Once yo went south of Conover traffic was huge and the trails went down hill fast. Once you got close to Bent’s the trail was gravelly but after you went across the chain all trail into Watersmeet and Land O were very good.

Rode lots of lakes and slush is not a problem.
