Waiting for SNOW to move in late Friday into Saturday.  No totals.  Most trails are SNOW covered.  On the northside or in open fields the sun has burned through some areas.  Snirt also present.  The long & short is SNOW is needed.

The Groomer Tracking System AP (GTS) shows grooms left the Groomer Barn along Hwy 45N near the Snowmobile Derby Track last night did minimal grooming.  Heading mainly north. With the south trail Alt 13 to Three Lakes connect also groomed & a short portion of Trail 70W from the Honey Bear Restaurant to St. Germain connect groomed.  Here are the northern trail/sections groomed:

North & Northwest – from the Groomer Barn

  • Trail 10/13 north to Hwy G & back to

  • Trail 3N aka Manske Swamp back onto
  • Trail 10/13 across the
  • Wisconsin River portion of 10/13 at the intersection heading north continuing on
  • Trail 13 to the turn around near Bauer’s Dam Restaurant & Buckatabon Lake

Best riding until more Snow is north & woods trails.

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
