The Groomer Tracking System AP (GTS) shows grooms left the Groomer Barn & headed north & northwest on 10W/13N grooming it all.  To include all the 13N loops far north,  Wisconsin River section of 10W/13N.   No grooming of 10W after crossing the Wisconsin River section.  That area has the best snow & riding.

Way to much sun yesterday.  Trails have soften up everywhere.  Best riding in Eagle River is 10W/13N heading north out of Eagle River as it has the most woods cover.  With the sun yesterday & more today trails on the northside of roads, like 10E are very soft with snirt & burn through areas.  Southside of the road trails, like 10E are still fine.  Heading west of Eagle River on 70W trails are Poor & need snow.  Heading south on 17S toward the Sugar Camp trails is still Fair to Good as it is on the west side of the road.  Trail 7 aka Paint Ball Field is Good as it is in the woods.  It comes out at Cty Hwy H near the Kathan Inn.  Heading east on 10E the one that is on the southside is in Good shape.  Heading back to town on the west side 10E which is the northside of the Hwy 70E has snirt, snow & burn throughs.  So ride north for the best trails.

The warm up ends today.  32 today with 2 below tonight. Starting tomorrow for most of the week 10’s or less with double digits BELOW ZERO. Next SNOW on Saturday.  Start Dancin’

Catfish & Eagle lake trails marked & OPEN.  To be safe stay by the orange reflective barrels.  DO NOT think the entire lake is safe.  Several sleds have gone in the water far from the barrels.

Please KEEP DOIN’ THE SNOW DANCE!  Trails Need More Fresh SNOW

See ya on the trails!
