The brutal cold snap is behind us and the temps are above 0 and it is snowing. The groomers will be back out tomorrow working their magic. We could definitely use more snow (like Florida has) but the trails are definitely rideable and the farther north u ride the better they get.

Snowmobile Information:

Our trails are nothing better than early-season riding. We’re not going to tell you to just leave your machines on the trailers and spend your money now that you’re in town. Riding anytime, but especially now, is a choice. If you feel conditions are not what you’d like to put your snowmobiles through, then don’t. For those who want to navigate the rocks and bare spots, we thank you for safely trying, and for your understanding. We want nothing more than for you to have the chance to get out and enjoy our slice of heaven. Please ride safe, be responsible, respect our landowners, and ride right! The following trail listing is current as of today. “Open” means we have run groomers on the trail noted. “Closed” does not mean you cannot ride a trail, but we have not put our larger equipment in these areas, so use extreme caution. Only trail 11a is 100% gates locked and closed to traffic all season due to logging. Enjoy your time in Northern Iron County and thank our businesses with your patronage.

Reporter:Stretch

Trail Conditions: Good

Snow Cover: 6″ base

Date of Report: January 21, 2025

Area Report:

It’s been bitter cold the past 3 days and snowy. So far I’ve recorded 17″ in those three days putting us at a total of 171″ for the year here in Toivola.  The groomers have been out hitting most of the trails every night. However with such high traffic on the weekends it’s real hard keeping them flat.

Trail Report – : Boulder Junction, Wisconsin – January 20, 2025

Reporter:boulderwi

Trail Conditions: Good

Snow Cover: 2-4 inches

Date of Report: January 20, 2025

Area Report:

At 8:00 am it is -21 degrees out with sunny skies. We have a slight warm up coming mid-week
with no significant new snow in sight. Well, opening weekend is in the books and the trails help up surprisingly well despite the lack of snow. Overall, they are in pretty good shape for this time of the year.
We groomed 15N last night and it is in good shape. Our groomer driver reported we have very
little snow to pull unto the trails to freshen them up, but they are flat and smooth. We will need
more snow to get them in great shape.
Thanks to all that supported us at our fundraising events this weekend, food sales at Wittig’s Ice Fishing contest and the snowmobile breakfast at Boulder Beer on Sunday morning. They were both a huge success.
Look for an updated trail report on Thursday, January 23 .
