Need way more SNOW to be able to open the trails. All the hunts are done so Sno-Eagles & the other 10 clubs have completed trail work. With exception of few reroutes. See below. Inspections began last week and will be completed December 19th. Sno-Eagles are using the roller to help drive the frost down & have been panning to build a hard icy frozen base. There is a re-route of the Trail 3 aka Manske Swamp that is still being worked on. When all done I will post a map with the trail updates. Trail 17 aka Hiawatha Trail has be rehab-ed. No more going in that wet mushy section just before Kick Back & Hiawatha motel. Alt Trail 13 that heads south to Three Lakes remains CLOSED. Trail 17S that connects with the Sugar Camp trails remains the same but there is a short re route where Eagle River Sno-Eagles connect. Another landowner closure. Map of that to follow too.
