Trail Report – : Iron County, Michigan – March 7, 2022

Reporter:Colleen

Trail Conditions: Fair

Snow Cover: 12-18 inches

Date of Report: March 7, 2022

Area Report:

From what I’ve been told from the snowmobiler’s that stayed with us this past weekend… the trails are very rideable. We did get some ice and rain on Saturday… but I had people riding Saturday afternoon and Sunday afternoon. They said the trails are fair to good condition… with exception of watching for ice in the corners. A little less snow of course on the southern trails.. but trails west and north still are covered. So when riding.. please remember to ride a little slower.. watch the corners for ice and try to stay on your side of the trail.

The groomers were pulled off the trails until Wednesday and Thursday of this week… hoping for some new fresh snow…

Hopefully, everything will be groomed by Friday and no more rain until April. 😉

We’ll keep you posted if I hear anything new or different regarding trail conditions.

Boulder Junction Snowmobile Club Trail Report – Monday, 3/07/22:

It’s 22 degrees out with light snow falling this morning. We will have a warm up and sunny skies for tomorrow, but followed by cooler temps and cold nights the rest of the week. Due to the wintry mix over the weekend, we suspended most of our grooming routes, but we did groom 11 & 15S early this morning and will be back grooming on our normal schedule this week. The inclement weather this weekend didn’t hurt our trails that much and they will be in good to very good shape for mid-week riding.

Be safe out there and thanks to all who supported us at our annual Cabin Fever Party this past weekend!

Trail Report – : Walworth County, Wisconsin – March 7, 2022

Reporter:Ryan Strand

Trail Conditions: Closed

Snow Cover: 3”

Date of Report: March 7, 2022

Area Report:

Picked up 3” or so overnight. But unfortunately we are in spring mode already around here weather wise. We had 68F Saturday and thunderstorms. So now we are going through the March roller coaster ride from Mother Nature. It is getting hard to see a scenario where we get trails open again this season unfortunately. Unless something drastic changes with some cold weather and a big snowfall. At this point however that seems very unlikely given the winter that we have had. But check back if things change. I guess you never know!

More than 300 miles of groomed snowmobile trails lace Barron County, including the popular Tuscobia State Trail with 76 miles heading east from Rice Lake to Park Falls; the Wild Rivers Trail heading north from Rice Lake’s city limits leads 97 miles to Superior.

Barron County snowmobile trails are open and groomed. However, recent freezing rain and warming is taking a serious toll on the snow cover and most road routes are bare, so please ride with caution.

Trail Report – : Lake Gogebic | Bergland, Michigan – March 7, 2022

Reporter:AJ’s Walleye Lodge

Trail Conditions: Good

Snow Cover: Good

Date of Report: March 7, 2022

Area Report:

The ice storm over the weekend has taken a toll on trails in the Lake Gogebic Area. After the ice storm on Saturday, 6+” of wet heavy snow on Sunday brought down a lot of branches and debris on the trails. Groomers are out – and trails are in nice shape but some trails are not even groomable due to brush. The South end of Lake Gogebic area is being groomed right now and reported to be in good condition with the exception of a few wet spots – just have to watch for overhanging brush.

There will be a BRUSHING PARTY on Tuedsday (3/8/22) at 10 a.m. Eastern. Meet at Tuski Rd. in Bergland (3^rd drive on the left). Bring a snowmobile and a chainsaw. Pizza and beverages afterword. Aj’s Walleye Lodge is providing complimentary lodging for anyone coming up to help out that might need a room. We’ve got a great base and snow in the forecast – just need to work through the next several days to get everything back in order.

After a weekend of freezing rain and snow clubs are out cleaning up the mess. We still have a lot of snow for riding. We have snow showers today and a little warm up tomorrow but the rest of the week temps are in the low 20’s with single digits at night.

Please stay on marked trails riding on unmarked trails can result in the clubs losing easement for that trail.

Trail Report – : Eagle River, Wisconsin – March 7, 2022

Area Report:

EAGLE RIVER TRAILS
Expect ALL Conditions
Icy

March 7, 2022 – 7:26am – 23 – High 26 – Low 9

Back to winter. Light wet SNOW this morning 6 miles East of Eagle River. Looks to be Lake Effect Snow as it’s not showing up on any radar.

Temps for the upcoming week are forecast for the mid 20’s for daytime temps with the exception of Tuesday when it will pop up into 30’s. Single digits to around 10 at night. Next forecast SNOW is Sunday.

Groomer Tracking Systems (GTS) shows no grooming overnight.

As for the trails all conditions. Out east of Eagle River where I live Trail 10E is crusty snow covered with thin ice layer on top. With the light SNOW it will make them very icy. Section between Bloom Rd & Loon Lake Rd that then connects to Trail 13 to town is thin & Poor. The grade section just south of town is still Good. In town all frozen, icy & few thin spots. These are the trails I’ve seen. Have to think the rest of the trails in the same shape. So if you ride please slow down. You can get in trouble real quickly.

The Clubs of Vilas County work very hard to secure easements from private landowners & folks we are losing many due to off trail riding. So PLEASE NO OFF TRAIL RIDING.

Catfish & Eagle lake trails marked & OPEN. Stay by the orange reflective barrels. Surface slush with the sun is possible. DO NOT think the entire lake is safe. Several sleds have gone in the water this season far from the barrels.

Please KEEP DOIN’ THE SNOW DANCE! And THINK COLD would be good too!

See ya on the Trails!

March 6, 2022

Hello Riders!

While the trails are open; If you choose to ride, do know there are no groomers out due to conditions as they can not get through trails. In addition to power outages from this ice storm there are many trees and branches down. Our volunteers are needing to tend to homes and businesses first, before heading to the trails to clear so it is safe to groom. Please chose wisely and keep your safety in mind.

Trail Report – : Phelps, Wisconsin – March 6, 2022

Reporter:Phelps Snowmobile Club

Trail Conditions: Good

Snow Cover: 15″-20″

Date of Report: March 6, 2022

Area Report:

The ice and rain perdicted didn’t do anything to our snow base. It made for a crust on top of the snow. Good riding can still be found in Phelps and Vilas County. Phelps trails have not been groomed since Thursday night due to warm temperatures. Once temps fall back into the 20’s or teens, grooming will start up again. Trails are hard packed and fast. Corners are icy and coution should be used along with common sense. Please ride safe. We want all of you to make it back home and see you all again on a return trip to the Phelps area. Weather forecast looks good to keep the trails open for the near future. Snow is again forecasted for Thursday and Friday of this upcoming week. Now is the best time to come up and ride. Less traffic and warmer temps.
