EAGLE RIVER TRAILS
Remain CLOSED

Happy to report that temps have dropped and it is SNOWING this morning 6 miles east of Eagle River! Appears to be Lake Effect Snow (LES) as it does not appear on the weather service radar. Let the SNOW DANCE continue!

The Sno-Eagles work crews are out reinspecting to be sure no trees are down on trails. Today they will begin the process of running trails to enhance the freeze down of the swamps. Swamps thawed during the warm up.

Great to see COLDER weather! Waiting game until enough SNOW to open!

THINK COLD! Start DOIN’ THE SNOW DANCE!!!
