Unrideable to Poor
Season looks to be over. Temps were in low 50’s for highs yesterday & will be near 60 today. Trails in town are now unrideable with little or no SNOW. Trails out town there are a few SNOW covered areas but those are melting as well. Lots of bare spots. Wet slushy SNOW. And plenty of snirt.
The 11 Snowmobile Clubs of the Vilas County Snowmobile Alliance are currently voting on when to close. Expect that announcement this morning.
It was a much better season than last year & this last weekend was a bonus! But the Fat Lady is Singing.
Thanks to all who rode the Sno-Eagles Eagle River snowmobile trails & all of Vilas County. Come on up this Summer to enjoy the lakes, trails & events.

Area Report:
Those that were able to come up this past weekend were able to get in some good snowmobiling. However, we are back to warmer days with direct sun. Our trails on the southern, eastern and western side of the county are pretty much down to lots of water with a small amount of snow on top. The very northern trails in the county still have decent coverage… but you will get wet when riding. Trailering north of Iron River is your best bet at this time.
News and Reports:
Ski Brule will be open until sometime in April depending on weather and temperatures. For more information on their activities please contact them directly. Spring time skiing is some of the best skiing here in the Yoop.
Snowmobile Information:
Currently trails are not in good shape… be sure to call a local club and check on the current trail conditions.

Already 27 degrees this morning & heading up to low 50’s. If you are going to ride recommend early morning ride as by noon the temps will be in the mid 40’s working up to the 50’s.
Trails in town are really deteriorating it will be a struggle but once you get into the woods trails are better. It’s Adventure Sledding right now so expect all conditions.
GTS (Groomer Tracking System) show Sno-Eagles were out grooming last night. The entire system was groomed with the exception of Trail 10E. If you ride 10E remember that riding ends at the turn around where Sno-Eagles connect to the Three Lakes – Brule River trails. That section is in Forest county, which did not open. About 8 miles out just past Mikes Gas Station is the 9 mile trail Forest Rd 2437 to get to Three Lakes TL5. Forest road section is snow covered. 9 mile road did have snow on the edges yesterday.
The 11 Clubs of the Vilas County Snowmobile Alliance will be talking about what to do next. Come on back this afternoon to check for any updates.
Ride it while we got it! The Fat Lady has not sung yet!

Keith asked me to post that 2/3 of our trail system is turning to mud, we have removed all of the lake markers, and currently advise our lakes to be unsafe for snowmobile travel. Time to turn up the lights, start picking up the solo cups, and empty the garbage my friends. At least we got another decent run at it. Mark

Many thanks to all the Frosty Club members and volunteers who pitched in to get the trails open. Friday and Saturday had some excellent riding and people were out and enjoying a great weekend. The forecast is brutal so I think this may have been it as I think by tomorrow afternoon the trails will be toasted.

Area Report:
Well that evil sun did its damage. Trails were great this morning after grooming last night and cold temps. But that evil sun popped out and really thinned out what snow we had. With no real base on the trails, we have decided not to groom Saturday night for Sunday.
If you do ride on Sunday, expect some bare areas, and maybe some rough trails once the temps drop overnight. Most road routes are pretty bare also.
With the warm temps forecasted for Monday and beyond, Vilas County trails may close again unless we receive another good dump of snow.

Cold as I write this morning! Right now the SNOW is hard & frozen, making it very icy & slippery. That will change very quickly as the temps will pop up to the 20’s by 10am. May be some SNOW between 10am & noon. Going to be overcast so even with the temps coming up trails will hold but will get soft. Starting tomorrow temps coming way up so Ride Now!
GTS groomer tracker shows that Sno-Eagles groomed trails heading north last night:
NOTE: Trail 10E heading to Phelps & Three Lakes is not open starting from the Sno-Eagles connect with Three Lakes. See photo at the right.
If you ride east take the 9 mile Trail which heads south off 10E. It’s a US Forest Rd #2437. It connects with 9 mile road to TL5 & will take you to Three Lakes.
Catfish & Eagle had surface slush yesterday. Stay by the barrels where it’s stays frozen longer. If you encounter slush just steady as you go. Don’t accelerate or slow down. Could get stuck.
Thanks to the Sno-Eagles drivers & the other 10 clubs for working double time to get trails open in Vilas County. Another thank you to the Oneida County clubs that were able to open as well.
Ride it while we got it! See ya on the Trails!!!
