Trail Report – : Boulder Junction, Wisconsin – March 13, 2026

Reporter:boulderwi

Trail Conditions: Closed

Snow Cover: 8-10″

Date of Report: March 13, 2026

Area Report:

The Vilas County Trail System still remains closed at this time. It will re-open Saturday, March 14, 2026 at 8am.

At 8:00 a.m., it’s 9 degrees out sunny skies. We received 4.5” of snow yesterday and are
expecting 4”-8” tonight. Other area clubs have been out panning yesterday and we will be going
out today and tomorrow to smooth things out.
With the cold weather and additional new snow, we are anticipating that the trails may reopen
soon. But before that happens, all Vilas County club trails need to be inspected and verified that
they are safe and a vote needs to be held between the 11 Vilas County clubs.
Keep an eye on social media for any upcoming public service announcement regarding Vilas
County trails reopening!

Snowmobile Report –March 13, 2026
Mother Nature has spoken  again!—We are reopening the snowmobile trails today.  All trails will not be groomed. Late season riding, lowlands have water standing so ride with Caution. Watch for Groomers when on trails.

One Reroute:   starting 1/18 due to logging operations: Trail 11 to Iron County will be detoured. You need to follow Nig Rein Rd to Camp E Rd to reconnect at Bear Track Rd!

Reminder everyone that the Ashland Waterfront Trail is not open to motorized vehicles, including snowmobiles and ATVs. Anyone caught riding on the Ashland Waterfront Trail will be ticketed.

When snowmobiling please stay on the trail.  A lot of Ashland County snowmobile trails are on farmers land, be respectful so we don’t lose our easement to their property.

Trail Report – : Conover, Wisconsin – March 12, 2026

Reporter:snobuddies

Trail Conditions: Closed

Snow Cover: 4-5”

Date of Report: March 12, 2026

Area Report:

VILAS COUNTY TRAILS REMAIN CLOSED AT THIS TIME

We received 4-5” of fresh snow Tuesday night. There is more in the forecast for tonight and again Sunday. We have panned in the recent snow and inspected the trails. Once all 11 clubs vote on a date to reopen, we will post it to social media and I’ll update this post. 

We will probably not open the cemetery trail from Pioneer Lake north to Muskrat Creek Rd. There is a swamp in there that has probably opened up and all of this trail is on private land. Pioneer lake no longer has barrels marking it, nor does Buckatabon Lake from Bauers Dam to Deer Path Resort. North Twin Lake is still marked, stay by the barrels when crossing.

Trail Report 03/11/2026

We received measurable snow last night into this morning with more in the forecast into the weekend.

We will be resuming grooming operations later this afternoon and evening. From our inspections, there is still remaining base in the woods, the swamps have started to lose ice which won’t support our grooming equipment but are still frozen over.

Our intentions are to look at re-opening our sections of trails in the near future. Be advised if we do open, our grooming will be limited to main land only.

We will update on any decisions made.

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

Trail Report – : Iron County, Michigan – March 10, 2026

Reporter:Colleen

Trail Conditions: Poor

Snow Cover: 3- 6 inches of snow

Date of Report: March 10, 2026

Area Report:

Our trail system is in pretty tough shape, we’ve had fairly warm and sunny temps for the past week. There is not enough snow for grooming at this time. Currently, there are very icy conditions when it’s cold enough and several bare spots on several trails. Grooming will not begin again unless we receive a good 12 inches of new snow.  However, keep an eye on the upcoming storms this week and let’s see what we get. 

This report will be updated if the trail conditions improve.  If not, this will be the last report for this season.  Again, it was a great season and we enjoyed seeing all the snowmobiles and riders out on the trails the past 4 months.

Happy Trails!!
