Trail Report – : Rhinelander, Wisconsin – February 23, 2022

Reporter:Hodag SnoTrails

Trail Conditions: Good

Snow Cover: Fresh snow

Date of Report: February 23, 2022

Area Report:

We received approximately 5″ of snow over the last 24 hours (not close to what was forecasted) it should help the trail system significantly. The groomers are out doing double runs to hit all of our 150 miles of trails. It takes time to hit all of them. Once they are all groomed, they should be good.

The lakes are all marked and not showing any signs of slush. There are multiple roads across Boom Lake so use extreme caution when traveling on that route. The snow cover on the lake is low, so the ice fisherman can travel about anywhere so there can be truck tracks and / or plowed roads in multiple locations.

There is one trail closure on the Hodag Sno-Trails system: Trail H4 from Boom Lake to the intersection just north of River Rd. This is basically the “land” route to not running Boom Lake. The trail is closed at this point. We have been just notified that this is a permanent closure. Running the lake is the reroute.

This latest snow will help extend the great season we are experiencing. Oneida County trails could stay open until March 31st….conditions permitting. Time to ride!!

Trail Report – : Rice Lake & Barron County, Wisconsin – February 22, 2022

Reporter:Jody

Trail Conditions: Good

Snow Cover: 6-8 inches

Date of Report: February 22, 2022

Snowmobile Information:

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. We received additional snow last week, however a few field crossings remain rough with exposed rocks and stumps. Ride with caution. The Wild Rivers, Tuscobia and Cat Tail State Trails are snow covered, groomed and generally are in excellent condition.

Trail Report – : Sugar Camp, Wisconsin – February 22, 2022

Reporter:Matt Winters

Trail Conditions: Good

Snow Cover: 25″

Date of Report: February 22, 2022

Area Report:

For the most part the trails are in good condition outside of a few icy corners and some choppy spots. As long as we keep the cold air around I don’t expect much change. There are times on the weekends with heavy traffic that they become less than good in my opinion but it doesn’t take us long to get them back in shape thanks to the cold temperatures at night. Be safe and have fun.

Trail Report – : Hayward / Sawyer County, Wisconsin – February 22, 2022

Reporter:haywardlakes

Trail Conditions: Excellent

Snow Cover: 9-10 Inches

Date of Report: February 22, 2022

Area Report:

February 22, 2022

We are enjoying the falling snow that started in the night and will continue through to Tuesday. Groomers will be back out once the snow has slowed. Trails are beautiful and this week and weekend will be excellent riding!

As mentioned in the previous post it is Birkie Week so there are some reroutes around the town of Hayward starting Tuesday. Lake Hayward will be closed as will Railroad St and Main Street.

There will be barricades up to prevent riders from getting on and off of Lake Hayward, going on Railroad St and Main Street out of respect for the Birkie race. Barricades will be up just past Marathon/Holiday gas station on 63 so you will be able to get gas at those locations. There will be barricades at the end of Railroad St by Millers Market, on the entrances/exits of Lake Hayward at Market Place, the boat landing behind the Big Musky and Holiday Inn. Please remember there is no on/off of the lake by Hayward Marine, that trail was removed a year ago so please do not use it as the lake trail is closed this week and you will be trespassing if you go on/off on that side.

There is some trail crossings with the Birkie trail in the Seeley Hills so expect some delays, but no closings. Please be respectful of closures/reroutes and please cross at Birkie trail crossings slowly and respectfully not to hurt their trail.

Please watch, enjoy and cheer on these athletes! It’s a remarkable race!

Not what I hoped for but the weather guys say SNOW will start up again today late morning & afternoon. For today 4-6 inches of wet SNOW is forecast. Stay tuned as they missed the mark yesterday. Just to be sure START DOIN’ THE SNOW DANCE!!

Currently the trails have all conditions & the conditions change quickly. If you are riding today there will also be blowing SNOW.

Groomer Tracking Systems (GTS) shows groomers back out grooming last night. Short grooming session. Headed south to town on Trail 10/13 from the groomer barn past the Ice Castle to the trail intersection behind the Dairy Queen. Right, heading west & grooming Trail 70W all the way to the St. Germain connect. Turning around & back to Eagle River on Trail 70 & back through town to the groomer barn.

Catfish & Eagle lake trails marked & OPEN. Stay by the orange reflective barrels. No reports of surface slush. 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! Sure would be great to ride into March!

See ya on the trails!
