EAGLE RIVER TRAILS
Late Season Riding
Not much new. It’s officially Late Season Riding. ALL conditions depending where you ride. Woods trails are still GOOD but soft.Trails along roads on the south side are GOOD. North side trails are in rough shape & POOR. Best riding is heading NORTH or EAST. Roads & road crossings area challenge & POOR. SNOW starting tonight and off & on thru next Monday. Right now it looks like 2-3 inches of SNOW. It’s March & temps pop up during the day into the 30’s. Cloudy today. At night in the teens helping to freeze, building a base & hold the SNOW. It’s ADVENTURE SLEDDING. Time to ride it when we got it.
Out of Eagle River -Sno-Eagles Country, riding west & south of Boulder Junction is a good bet. Also Sugar Camp woods trails. But everywhere conditions change quickly.
No grooming last tonight. Waiting for colder temps & more SNOW.
With the number of accidents & fatalities this season remind you when riding:
When you come upon a group of sleds in front of you on the trail. Passing them can get you in trouble. Have 
been seeing this all winter. When an entire group passes, by the time the last sled passes, a sled could be coming from the other direction.
Remember as you ride & meet a groomer the equipment is NOT able to leave the trail due to it’s weight. Pull over & stop. Wait for direction from the driver. Give ’em a thumbs up. They groom so we can ride!
Please ride on the right side, slow down, limit alcohol & no off trail riding.
Catfish Eagle lakes are marked with reflective orange barrels. Surface slush on top of snow. Stay by the barrels.
Take the snowmobiliers pledge to protect snowmobiling access for today’s and future snowmobiliers.
