Snowmobile Information:
Ok, so it looks like a possible warmup Sunday. You are not looking so good, I would take some time off of work, and get some R&R on your sled. I always focus on the northern areas and the lakes, but fail to talk about our new 70 trail that runs along 70 from Highway F to Highway D. That was the reason we bought our Kubota, and VP Ken says it is in amazing shape. Our southern neighbor, and one of my other clubs, Minoqua Forest Riders, has their drawing and vintage snowmobile show this Saturday at Area 31, 10350 Gilbertson Rd, Minoqua. Ride trail 70 there and check it out. Otherwise my report is pretty much the same. Lake trails are great. River Rd trail 23 north of Moss Lake is great. Club trail from H down to Moss, Crawling Stone, and the Fence Lake Launch, has snow and Don should groom that tomorrow. Groomer Jay says Raven Lake area has some icey corners, and a few rocks, but is great. The rental tractor has rubber tires so it is harder to fix the corners. 17 North in the Powell Marsh is thin to rocks. 17 in the middle is pretty good, 17 south from Stearns Lake to Mattke is suspect. Trail 1, Stearns Lake Rd, and East Boundary, have a smiley face with a little snow, then a frown after it is plowed away. Sleds try to ride the bank and pull snow back. 5 into the casino is great. Hornshoe Trails are taking heavy fire, but the cold weather is keeping the Huns at bay. Eat, drink, and be Merry, for Sunday you may be in Utah. Mark
