Trail Conditions: Early Season
Snow Cover: Thin
Date of Report: December 26, 2021
Snowmobile Information:
Vilas County trails open tomorrow, Monday December 27. The operative word for our trails is caution. Hornshoe president Keith worked our entire system today. We had a considerable number of ruts from vehicle traffic that needed to be leveled, and with the minimal snow, did not leave a lot left to the imagination. The areas in the woods have some decent snow in spots on trail 5, but 17, the main grade, is very thin.Trail 1, Stearns Lake Road, will not hold up to traffic yet. The minimal ice on the pavement is soft. There is no snow on the shoulder.The forecasts vary, but we are projected to get anywhere from 4-8″ of snow tonight. We also stand to pick up some more in the follow couple of days, and there is a snowmaker brewing later in the week. We may be slow out of the blocks, but we could gain some ground in the next couple of days. I will post again tomorrow after round #1. Mark
