Trail Report – : Hurley, Wisconsin – March 28, 2023

Reporter:hurley@hurleywi.com

Trail Conditions: Fair

Snow Cover: 4-6

Date of Report: March 28, 2023

Snowmobile Information:

Good morning on this 28th day of March. This second-to-last trail report of the 2022-23 snowmobile season goes like this…
Conditions greatly vary from North to South in our trail area as do the differences between trails in the woods and those in full sun. The pictures below are representative of this. Plowed road sections are basically void of any mat left, yet wooded areas still have good base and loose snow. Many businesses are now closed. Logging has pushed ahead in a few areas on trails 8, 17, and 15. Use caution and plan accordingly. These late season rides are all a gift that we are proud to offer you. Remember, this all started in early December with a little snow, great volunteers, awesome land owners, and some big White Thunder Rider rollers

Boulder Junction Snowmobile Club Trail Report – Monday, 3/27/2023

At 8:00 a.m. it’s 15 degrees out with sunny skies and a high of 40 degrees for today.
We last groomed on Wednesday 3/22 and we are finished grooming for the year.
Our trails are still open, but getting to them might be tough. The town road route, all road
crossings, logging areas, and areas exposed to the sun are bare. Once you get out into the
woods they are rideable yet.
Oneida County trails close today at noon. Vilas County is having a vote today as to leaving the
trails open until Friday or shutting them down sooner.
Check in Wednesday, 3/29 for our final trail report of the year including a recap of our season.

Snowmobile Report – March 27, 2023
Ashland County snowmobile trails remain OPEN and in Good to Excellent condition!  Trails close March 30th.  Groomers in Ashland County continue to be out working on the trails. Slow down, stay right and be prepared for icy corners, hills, intersections and changing snow conditions.  There is still ice underneath this fresh snow and snow drifts in areas so please BE CAREFUL!  Logging continues on Trail 8 from Parker Rd to White Bass Road.  Please use caution and ride safe.  Only 200 feet of trail will be dozed on each side.  Detour has been posted on Trail 12.  Be aware of more traffic in that area due to logging in progress.  Area affectied is by Agenda Rd and Blueberry Rd.  Enjoy your ride and stay safe!

Please stay on the trail.  A lot of Ashland County snowmobile trails are on farmers land, please be respectful so we don’t lose our easement to their property. Snowmobiles may not be modified, or operated, to amplify or otherwise increase the total vehicle noise above the originally manufactured snowmobile noise level.

As always please follow the snowmobile trail rules and regulations. 

As always operate with everyone’s safety in mind and report any hazardous trail issues that are observed to the Ashland County Sheriff’s Department (715-682-7023 opt 1) so that it can be forwarded to the appropriate service.

The Tri-County Corridor is open from Superior to Ashland. There are still several areas on the eastern end that require attention but all known hazards have been identified and marked. Use caution when approaching ribbons, barricades, and cones.

Important reminders: There is no snowmobiling allowed from Ashland to Bad River/Odanah as snowmobiling is not permitted on reservation land.  However, snowmobiling is allowed from Bad River east to the Upper Peninsula of Michigan.

If you would like to receive an Ashland County Snowmobile map, let us know and we will mail one out to you! Call us at 715/682-2500 or email us fdchamber@visitashland.com.

Trail Report – : Rhinelander, Wisconsin – March 27, 2023

Reporter:Hodag SnoTrails

Trail Conditions: Closed

Snow Cover: thinning every day

Date of Report: March 27, 2023

Area Report:

Well folks, it’s over.   We had a good long season, but all things must come to an end.  Oneida County Trails close today.  

We were blessed with snow through March which is rare in the last few years.  Hodag Sno-Trails hopes everyone had a chance to get out and experience the snow fun.   We appreciate our landowners that allow us to utilize approximately 150 miles of trails in the Rhinelander area.  If it wasn’t for them, we would be riding the ditches.

Thank you to the groomers that were out nightly to maintain the trail system.  Thank you to the club members that are out there volunteering their time to brush, mark, inspect and keep the trail system going.

We will be having our year-end meeting to summarize the year and look for ideas for continual improvement.

Thank you!!!

It was 6 degrees this morning near Hurley WI and Groomer Cody is out shaving the grooves. So far the marsh areas are holding together well with these cold nights, and we just keep adding to their tops to replace what’s melting underneath.
