Trail Report – : Hurley, Wisconsin – January 19, 2024

Reporter:hurley@hurleywi.com

Trail Conditions: Closed

Snow Cover: 0-4

Date of Report: January 19, 2024

Area Report:

Currently Snowing.. and 1 degree Check Back for Updates

Snowmobile Information:

Many have been wondering about trail conditions in Iron County and when the snowmobile trails will be open. Mercer Area Sno-goers, White Thunder Riders, and the Iron County Forestry Dept. have been working hard with what little snow we have received since the weekend but unfortunately, there just isn’t enough to open the trails yet.

Many trails have water holes and other hazards that we just cannot deal with until Mother Nature cooperates. Next week is not looking to be in our favor with warm weather coming.

We all want the trails open, we wanted them open a month ago! But this unusual winter is tying our hands.

Trail Report – : Conover, Wisconsin – January 18, 2024

Reporter:snobuddies

Trail Conditions: Closed

Snow Cover: 6”

Date of Report: January 18, 2024

Area Report:

The Vilas County Snowmobile Alliance voted last night to keep the trails closed for now until we receive more snow. This is to protect the private land owners that the trails cross. The temps have been cold helping to freeze up swamp areas. North Twin Lake has been marked for when trails do open.

Forecast is for a brief warm up, which may bring us the snow we need. If we do get enough snow, the crews will be out to pan the trails and make sure they are safe to go.

Trail Report – : Hayward / Sawyer County, Wisconsin – January 17, 2024

Reporter:haywardlakes

Trail Conditions: Poor

Snow Cover: 0-5

Date of Report: January 17, 2024

Area Report:

Land trails are open but in poor condition with marginal snow, exposed rocks, and ruts. A few groomers have been out to do some panning and lay the snow flat, other than that, groomers will not be out until we get more snow. You can follow the groomer operations on the GTS app for the most up to date information.

Private property gates, specifically ones that cross swamps and waterways, are not open yet.

The cold weather has been helpful with lakes. Those lakes that are staked are:

Moose Lake

Nelson Lake

Barker Lake

Much of the Chippewa Flowage ***see the note below on the details of where on the Flowage is staked and where is not***

Chippewa Flowage Specifics:

WEST SIDE: trail is staked from trail 9 by Chief Lake Lodge Bar & Grill / Pat’s Landing Resort up to Highway CC connecting to the east side, and up to trail 3 and 9. All businesses on the west side (Pat’s, Chief, Chippewa Pines Resort, Big Musky Resort, Sisko’s Pine Point Resort, and The Landing) have staked or are finishing staking to the main trail today as well.

EAST SIDE: trail is staked from Treeland Resorts / R & R Bayview Resort & Restaurant, and Dun Rovin Resort past Deerfoot Lodge & Resort down to Shady Nook Resort and up to Johnson’s Resort on Trail 1N.

PLEASE NOTE: Trail 6 up the river channel to Deer Run Resort and Musky Tale Resort is not yet staked and needs more time for the ice thickness to improve. You can access those businesses via the road route. Trail 18 near the Winter dam is also not yet staked.

For your safety and the safety of others following your tracks – DO NOT RIDE UNSTAKED TRAILS

Plans to stake Lost Land, Tiger Cat and Spider Lake for Thursday and Friday. We will update once that is done.

There are no additional updates on lakes at this time. LCO, Grindstone, Whitefish, Sissabaagama, and Long Lake just froze over this week and are not ready. Crews will be monitoring them, and we will keep you updated. Please DO NOT ride on lakes that are not staked.

Trail Report – : Keweenaw Peninsula / Houghton-Hancock, South Range, Copper Harbor, Michigan – January 17, 2024

Reporter:Stretch

Trail Conditions: Early Season

Snow Cover: 2″-3″ Base

Date of Report: January 17, 2024

Area Report:

Funny how a week can change everything here in the U.P.

I’ve measured a little over 40 inches of fresh powder in 5 days. The lake effect snow is hitting the Keweenaw on down to the Mass City area, and all the usual LES spots pretty hard. Snow and cold temps are in the forcast till Saturday, so this weekend is looking good for trail riding. Starting on Tuesday of next week we’re going to be having a warm up but I’m not foreseeing it to hurt this area very much.
