Temperatures are up with a high of 23 today.  Maybe a little Lake Effect Snow this morning. With SNOW forecast for this Thursday. Short report today.  Going out to ride today & will have a report of the trails I ride tomorrow.  Stay tuned.

Groomers back out on the trails last night.  Here are the trails groomed:

  • Trails north & northwest – 13N, 10W, 7S
  • Trails east – 10E

On the Sno-Eagles Trail Map what was Alt13 or 13a is now Trail 3.  That is it’s new number.  This is the trail heading south to Three Lakes.

Trail 1N has a logging operation in the section between the Town of Washington Town Hall & Eagle Lake.

Wisconsin River Trail – 10W/13N is now being groomed off & on it is icy and rough in spots.  Same for Manske Swamp – 3N.  No surface slush as of yesterday.

Catfish Lake Loop & Eagle Lake Trails are now both marked and officially open.  Please stay by the barrels to be safe.  Reminder the Catfish Lake Loop to Lumpy’s is NO LONGER a trail.

If you are riding zip on over to the “grade” to check the progress of the building of the ICE CASTLE!!!!  When complete it will be along side the trail where it runs by the Historic Railroad Grade.  Check out this link Eagle River Ice Castle to check on progress if you aren’t up here!

Keep Dancin!  The trails really need more SNOW!

See ya on the trails!
