EAGLE RIVER TRAILS NOT GROOMED OVERNIGHT DUE HIGH WINDS
EXPECT VARYING CONDITIONS
February 19, 2022 – 7:29am 3 below – High 14 – Low tonight 8
Friday brought about 3 inches news SNOW. Along with it came very high winds & wind gusts. 45 mph plus. Riding yesterday afternoon into last night was very dangerous. The high winds caused complete whiteouts on the trails.
Pop up of temps on Sunday. Could be 40. Then on Monday high of 16 and SNOW followed by SNOW on Tuesday with a high of 10. 1-3 inches of SNOW on Monday. 3-5 inches of SNOW on Tuesday.
Due to the high winds last night no grooming was done on the Eagle River Trails. With that said the trails have high traffic & are in need of grooming. If riding today today be aware of the icy sections in corners & straight a ways. Many trails are rough & have moguls. Slow down & be safe.
Catfish & Eagle lake trails marked & OPEN. Stay by the orange reflective barrels. DO NOT think the entire lake is safe. Several sleds have gone in the water this season far from the barrels.
Returned from a sledding trip on snowmobile to Park Falls. Then on to Washburn for 2 days of riding. Back to Park Falls. Then home yesterday. Somewhere between 400 & 500 miles. For the most part trails were great. Few areas of poor signing.
Please KEEP DOIN’ THE SNOW DANCE!
See ya on the trails!

News and Reports:
15 riders on 14 sleds left Monday morning at 9:30am from the Ice Castle in Eagle River on the yearly weekday away. This year is a 5 day trip.
We headed west on Trail 70 to 17S to 7 aka Paint Ball Field making our way west heading to Park Falls. Stopped for lunch at the Bear Bar at the entrance to the Lake Tom SnoFleas trails near Lac du Flambeau. Headed from there to Minocqua & west. Arriving in Park Falls at the Northern Lights Motel for the night. Rode a little over 100 miles. Trails were Fair to Good to Very Good. Especially in Price county. That evening the Price county Snowmobile Association was having their monthly meeting at the Northern Lights Motel. Got to talk to many of the drivers.
Tuesday we headed north to Washburn the town in Bayfield. A bit of a struggle as there were many detours & re routes in Ashland county. But we arrived safe & sound in the late afternoon at the Washburn Inn overlooking the Big Lake! Along with a great big appetite. Another day of about 100 miles. Mostly Good trails with some Fair & a bit of road running.
Wednesday we headed from Washburn toward Bayfield. When Tom & I had sled issues we turned around & headed back to Vallhalla Bar & Grill to wait for the utility truck & trailer to pick up Tom’s sled. Rode back on my sled double back to the motel in Washburn. Rest the group headed north to Bayfield putting on about 80 miles. Good trails P.S. Vallhalla Bar & Grill has terrific pizza. The same evening went back with the group for dinner. Food was fantastic!
Thursday morning we left Washburn heading back to Park Falls & a return visit to the Northern Lights Motel. Took a slightly different route back. To avoid the re routes & detours. We rode double back for most of the trip. Switched out the last leg of the ride with a rider. Riding her sled. She rode double with Tom. Little under 100 miles with Good trails.
On Friday, left Park Falls for Eagle River. Price county doing a fantastic job. Trails were Very Good to Excellent all the way through Price county. Heading west into Oneida county. Then Vilas. Stopped for lunch at Musky Bill’s. Very crowded. Then east toward home. All conditions of trails & as we got closer to Minocqua heavy, heavy traffic. Many sections of SNOW fall as we rode. Later in the day winds picked up. Just west of Eagle River winds caused white out conditions & some tough riding. Crossing the great swamp just west of Sportsman’s Chalet 4 of us lost sight of the trail location & ended up getting stuck in deep snow. Rest of the group made it to the Sportsman’s. Then the iron men of the group came back to dig us out & get us back on trails. Eventful day. Over 100 again on Friday.
Home safe & sound after an adventurous ride.

Trail Conditions: Excellent
Snow Cover: very good
Date of Report: February 18, 2022
Area Report:
The trails in the Fifield/Pike Lake area are all open and groomed and generally in very good to excellent condition As is always the case, the heavily used trails like 101 east of Pike Lake is still thin, but we groom it regularly so it smooth. The 4-5” of snow we got last Friday did wonders in covering up a few rocks coming through and allowing us to smooth out the bumps Happy Trails!
The 6” of new snow we received on 2/11 has added to the base and trails around the Solberg Lk area are now in Very Good to Excellent condition. There is logging on trail 102 between Old 13 Road and Trail 121 going North to Hicks Landing Rd. That portion has been bulldozed to allow the logging trucks to haul, so you may want to avoid that area for the time being. If you are going North, Go to Solberg Lake, then head North to trail 112 at Solberg Park.

Snow Cover: 3-7
Date of Report: February 18, 2022
Area Report:
The Langlade County snowmobile trails overall are in fair to good condition in both Zone A and B. Due to the lack of fresh snow and relatively heavy trail use, there are thin spots throughout the trail system, mainly on the high traffic trails. Icy spots and corners are also present throughout and snowmobiles should use caution and slow down, especially on corners and bridges.
Due to planned construction activities; intersections 30 & 30A will be closed, please follow marked detour when posted.
The trail segment from intersection 93 south to Northwoods Inn is closed indefinitely.

Watch for logging where trail crosses Mud Line on Trail 12 (out of Butternut) and CAUTION, keep an eye out for chunks of dirt and rocks. We are hoping for some more snow today…we will keep you posted! Please stay on the trail. Lots of Ashland County snowmobile trails are on farmers land, please be respectful so we don’t loose our easement to their property. Order your Ashland County Snowmobile

EAGLE RIVER TRAILS GOOD to FAIR
February 18, 2022 17 below zero at 5:55am – High 20 – 0 tonight
Cold one this morning. As it gets light temps will probably drop a little more before heading up to 20 today. The good news is SNOW moving in today 1-3 inches along with gusting winds of up to 45 mph.
if you’re riding early today dress warm & let someone know where you’re headed. Trails are all over the place for conditions. Icy corners & still also in straight aways. Ride Right to be safe.
The Groomer Tracking System AP (GTS) shows groomers left the Groomer Barn along Hwy 45N near the Snowmobile Derby Track last night & groomed. Unsure of which trails as there have been some glitches in the system. Yesterday I reported 10W/13N weren’t all groomed & it turns out they were. Sorry. Hopefully all will be corrected soon.
Catfish & Eagle lake trails marked & OPEN. Stay by the orange reflective barrels. DO NOT think the entire lake is safe. Several sleds have gone in the water this season far from the barrels.
Short report again this morning as I’m riding cross country with a group of 15. This morning we head east from Park Falls back to Eagle River. Check out News and Reports below.
Please KEEP DOIN’ THE SNOW DANCE!
See ya on the trails when we get back home!
