Trail Report – : Boulder Junction, Wisconsin – February 21, 2020

Reporter:boulderwi

Trail Conditions: Good

Snow Cover: 18-24 inches

Date of Report: February 21, 2020

Area Report:

Trail report for February 21, 2020 – Trails are good to very good. The Groomers were out last night, and this morning and the trails turned out very nice. With the lack of snow on the trail there is not a lot of snow to work with to lay out a nice flat trail but with the cold weather the trails have gotten stiff and hard. We are expecting a warmup over the weekend and the trails could get very soft. Along with the increase in traffic this could make the trails get bumpy very quickly. The groomers will be out doing the best they can to make your ride more enjoyable. The corners and other areas can be icy so use caution. Stay on marked trails! Remember to be safe, ride right, and enjoy the ride.
