Jan 29 2019

An inch of snow yesterday morning and another inch overnight. It’s also going to be very cold for a day or 2, so dress accordingly.  Frostbite can happen within minutes!!

Manitowish Waters trails remain in good condition! Julia from Dietz’s Service in Manitowish Waters put a bunch of miles on yesterday. She said, “Cruisers trails down south were flat and great, the same in MW,  trails good in Mercer but a bit bumpy”   (busy weekend, I’m sure they have them flat now) 

Overall the trails are flat & have a good, solid base. The additional snow definitely helps!!  Expect colder temperatures into this weekend. Watch the corners, as they may be icy from the heavier traffic this week.
