Snow Cover: ---
Date of Report: March 7, 2017
Area Report:
Vilas County Trails are officially closed as of 7am today – Tuesday March 7th, 20107
From Dale Mayo:
“””Due to rapidly deteriorating trail conditions and high winds this morning, the funded snowmobile trail system
in Vilas County will officially close at 7:00 a.m. on Tuesday, 7 March 2017.”””
The trails could potentially reopen if conditions permit – but – the way it looks right now – this happening is highly unlikely. We have trees down on the system from last nights storm and continuing high winds. Reopening would also take a significant snowfall and then an inspection of each club’s system by that club and then the President of that club would need to sign off that his or her system is safe and ready to go. Trails could be open until March 31st at midnight – conditions permitting.

Still a few days remaining!
