February 16, 2022 – 6:50m 21 degrees – High of 31 today – 0 tonight
Heading into a temperature pop up today. Down to 0 tonight. Then back down to 10 for a high tomorrow. Temps will be bouncing up & down for the rest of the week. The warm temps today will soften the trails up a bit. But shouldn’t o much damage. Weather guys forecast SNOW on Friday 1-3 inches!!
The Groomer Tracking System AP (GTS) shows groomers left the Groomer Barn along Hwy 45N near the Snowmobile Derby Track last night & shows nearly a full grooming.
Trail 13 way up in the northern section of trails heading toward Buckatabon Lake was only partially groomed. Plus Club trail called Uncle Kent’s. Otherwise all are groomed & waiting for you to get out & ride!
When you come upon the guys grooming first pull over & then give ’em a thumbs up!
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 as I’m riding cross country with a group of 15. This morning we head out from Washburn in Bayfield County. Check out News and Reports below.
Please KEEP DOIN’ THE SNOW DANCE!
See ya on the trails when we get back home!

Arriving in Park Falls at the Northern Light Motel for the night. Rode a little over 100 miles.

Area Report:
The Three Lakes Brule River Trails system is in pretty good condition. We need snow, but with the cold weather we have not lost much. You may find a few snirty areas closer to town, but when you get out in the woods, they are really nice. Watch your corners, they are icy. We are on a regular grooming schedule. All of our system is currently open and in very good condition. Lakes are marked. Stay close to the barrels for safe ice. Please stay on the trail and between the markers. Please remember to drop a few dollars in our donation boxes at your favorite trail stop. Every little bit helps.

Area Report:
Trails are holding up good…. we received another 5 to 6 inches of snow this past Sunday – Monday morning. We’re not receiving big snowfalls this season I think because the temps have been so terribly cold… but those cold temps have really held our trail system up and given us one heck of a good ice base. Both clubs continue to groom daily so trails are just the way you like them.. flat and smooth!! 😉
Again, just a reminder to all you “fun loving” sledders… our bars and restaurants are open to 100% compacity this season… so lots of places to stop along the way to grab a bite to eat.. drink and warm up those fingers and toes!!
Trail #2, Trail #107, Trail #15 N. , Trail #116, Trail #113, Trail #18 are all in very good to excellent condition.
Trail #15 S. is fair to good condition.. Trail #111 is also in fair to good condition with about (3 miles of road riding.
Trail #16 – has some logging going on between the intersection of #116 and then heading east toward Crystal Falls.
Can you believe February is already halfway over and you never know what March will bring weather wise. So check out the calendar and see when you have some free time to come north and do some riding.
And don’t forget if you’re in Iron County… be sure to look for “Nick Baumgartner”. Iron County’s only Olympic Gold Medalist. Congratulations Nick…. you so deserved the “GOLD”!! 😉
As always, while out on the trails watch for the groomers and their operators and be sure to give them the “Thumbs UP” for a job well done!!!! Remember they are the reason your ride is nice and smooth!! 🙂
Happy Trails!!

From the Namakagon Trail Groomers: Last week we received 4 – 5″ of GOOD snow! Sitting on a 4 – 5″ base, trails are in good condition. Please remember that the groomer has the right of way, and to obey all posted signage!
The Cable Area in Northern Wisconsin has over 1,200 miles of interconnecting snowmobile trail systems, making it one of the largest trail systems in the U.S. Uncrowded trails and the solitude of the Chequamegon National Forest bring snowmobilers back again and again to the Cable Area.
