Snowmobile Report –March 4, 2026

Mother Nature has spoken — and what a ride it’s been!  With the warm weather rolling in, the Ashland County Snowmobile trails will officially close for the season at 11:59pm on March 4.  What an unforgettable season! From perfectly groomed runs to miles of winter adventure, it wouldn’t have been possible without our incredible volunteers who kept the trails in top shape and every rider who came to experience the best of Ashland County.  Thank you for the memories and the tracks in the snow. We’ll be counting down the days until we can do it all over again next winter!




Trail Report – : Mercer Sno-Goers, Wisconsin – March 4, 2026

Reporter:Snogoer1

Trail Conditions: Open

Snow Cover: 1-6″

Date of Report: March 4, 2026

Area Report:

Late season riding conditions!

All grooming operations have been suspended.

The season is coming to an end, conditions range from poor, road routes, main corridors, trails exposed by the sun to fair to good in the woods.

If you want to ride you still can, our trails are late season riding condition. Biggest question, will the trails be open this weekend? Answer to your question is we don’t know yet, still plan your trip and visit our business sponsors by car if the trails do close.

Thank you, it’s been an incredible year!

As always ride right, ride smart, ride sober and slow down.

Trail Report – : Iron County, Michigan – March 4, 2026

Reporter:Colleen

Trail Conditions: Poor

Snow Cover: 6 – 12

Date of Report: March 4, 2026

Area Report:

The past warm up for the past 4 days has taken a toll on our trails. The trails are open, but not enough snow to groom and too warm as well. All groomers have been off the trails since Sunday do to weather. I don’t have a lot to report at this time. Once we cool back down and receive some new snowfall I will update our trail report for Iron County. 

Thank you again to the Iron County Snowmobile Clubs and groomer operators for a very busy season starting December 1st this past season.  Great job clearing all the trees and brush at the beginning of the season, and a lot of hours on the groomers through-out the season this year.

Also, to all you snowmobilers, “Thank You” for coming up and supporting our trail system and the local businesses. There were a couple very slow winters back to back, but this year made up for that.  It was wonderful seeing sleds every day of the week, no matter if it was a week day or weekend!! 🙂

This report will be updated if our conditions improve before the end of March.

News and Reports:

Ski Brule is 100 % open (Thursday – Sunday) – Great conditions

Woods riding most SNOW
As you ride should you come across any issues please call Dan at 262.951.6519.

Typical March with temps up & down.  Today high of 50 with 23 overnight. Same for the rest of the week. Then next week SNOW.  No firm totals.  Grooming is halted in Sno-Eagles Country. See what develops with the SNOW next week.  

Adventure Sledding time.  Best to ride the woods trails.  Haven’t been out since Monday so I’d say 10/7 bit north & west of Eagle River.  10E heading east is believe or not still covered with icy SNOW.  Most of that trail system heading up to Trail 6 is in the woods.  Open spots will be really icy or burned through. Real struggle in town so maybe trailer to the Eagle River Sports Hockey Dome & jump on there. Explore north along the WI/MI border too.

Daily Reminders:   
Reminder that Trail 13S does not run all the way to Three Lakes as a portion was closed.  The Club is working on a reroute. Use Trail 10E or Trail 17S to get to Three Lakes.

Eagle Lake was marked by businesses. There are 3 color safety lights at entrance & exit from/to the lake trail. Expect frozen surface slush late in the day.  CATFISH LAKE TRL NOT MARKED THIS SEASON.  Do not recommend riding at night as there are areas that are thin or not frozen.
 
Trail 10W/13N/7 aka Wisconsin River Bridge area can change quickly.  Stay on the trail do not slip over to the outside edges as slush develops there.  Was over that a couple of days ago & the frozen slush on the west side was rough.  So, yep slow down.

Snowmobile Report –March 3, 2026

The Ashland County Snowmobile trials are starting to take a beating with this warm weather.  They have decided to close the North section of the trail, Marengo going North, and Trail 9 going North of Clam Lake as of today.  So that closing effects Trail 9, 16, 13 and 2.  The rest of the Southern County is in Poor to Fair condition and we will update you on those trails as soon as we can.  Please be responsible riders and respect these closers.  We want to be responsible riders and respectful of the right of way that the landowners allow us to use.  This has been a great season!

Trail Report – : Sayner, Wisconsin – March 3, 2026

Reporter:SaynerStar Lake Barnstormers

Trail Conditions: Fair

Snow Cover: Dwindling

Date of Report: March 3, 2026

Area Report:

Between Sunday and last night, we have groomed our entire system.  With the forecast this week, we won’t be going out tonight or Wednesday.  If overnight temps allow, we may go out Thursday night to try and pull snow onto the trails for the weekend.  Grooming over the weekend will be dictated by overnight temps.

Snow cover on top of the ice base is very thin and in some areas it is gone.  There is still some decent riding to be found, but you’ll have to ride through some bad to get to the good.

The next 7 days show highs in the 40s and even reaching upper 50s on Monday.  Does this mean the end of the season?  Still too early to say, because temps drop back into the 20 next week with a couple days of forecasted snow.  It’ll be up to the county alliance to decide if there is enough hope to stay open through this coming week.

Don’t forget about the drawing to give away a 2025 Polaris 650 VR-1!  There is still time to purchase raffle tickets!  The drawing will be held at Sayner Pub on March 14 @ 5:00 PM!

Woods riding amazing
As you ride should you come across any issues pleased call Dan at 262.951.6519.

Not much to report this morning.  March riding.  Open areas crusty & heavy snirt.  Woods riding, trails on south & east sides of roads still really GOOD riding.  Seeing a fair amount of traffic heading east on Trail 10E where I live, plus 10W/13N heading to the woods.  10W/7 over the Wisconsin River Bridge & heading west is in SNOW covered condition.  North & west in Vilas County a good bet. Next SNOW forecast for Saturday.  Definitely late season riding.

Sno-Eagles has halted grooming.  Will start up again with more SNOW.

Daily Reminders:   
Reminder that Trail 13S does not run all the way to Three Lakes as a portion was closed.  The Club is working on a reroute. Use Trail 10E or Trail 17S to get to Three Lakes.
