Winter Snowmobile and All-Season Trails (As of 2/4/2020)

Currently, ALL of Douglas County trails are open and are reporting great to excellent conditions in most areas, with a few exceptions. Please note, deer have been reported on trails, so please keep an eye out while traveling.

PLEASE check the trail you intend to use is open and do not trespass on private property. It is critical that we respect the landowners who allow us to utilize their property. It just takes one owner to deny the use of their land for a trail to be permanently shut down, so please be courteous and wait for the trails to officially open.

The following all-season trails are currently open to ATV, UTV, and Snowmobiles:

Trail Report – : Hayward / Sawyer County, Wisconsin – February 4, 2020

Reporter:haywardlakes

Trail Conditions: Excellent

Snow Cover: 9-16 inches of snow

Date of Report: February 4, 2020

Area Report:

Hello Riders!

Trail conditions are excellent! We have great snow on the trails and lakes! Groomers are out running,

***BOTH TRAILS OVER LAKE HAYWARD ARE CLOSED*** all other lakes are good.

Just a friendly reminder to always stay on the marked lake trails. We have good ice on all the other main lakes but it’s always best to stay on the trails. If you are leaving the trails to get to lodging and food make sure your aim is to get from point A to point B. Fast traveling water areas such as channels and dams can be unpredictable. Another concern we can find is plowed lake roads. We are a fishing mecca as well and we share the lakes with the fisherman. For these fisherman to get their fishing shacks out on the ice many times they have to plow a path from the landing to their spot, so this can create a berm in the snow and going across a lake off of the trail you could encounter this path unexpectedly and hit that berm. Also be aware of fishing shacks themselves and of course, those tip ups! We want them to be able to have a fish fry, it is Wisconsin after all! Again, we share the lakes with all sportsman, and we all need to stay safe and be aware of our surroundings.

SNOWMOBILE TRAILS IN EAGLE RIVER
COLD temps return – Grooming resumes

Back to winter temps. 17 for a high today & 2 below tonight. The rest of the week 20’s during the day. Single digits or teens at night. Next chance of SNOW is Sunday. No totals yet.

The warm up actually did a positive thing. It softened up the rough set bumps. Groomer goes over & smooths all that out. Riding in the next couple of days will let you know.

Groomer Tracking Systems reports nearly ALL trails were groomed in the last 24 hours. Here is the grooming report

10E was groomed except Chanticleer Inn trail to Eagle Lake & GranpaGram aka 1
Alt13 aka 3S to Three Lakes connect – “the grade”
70W to St. Germain connect
7 aka the paintball field
17S to the Sugar Camp connect along hwy 17S
10W/13N to Conover connect to 3N
Manske Swamp 3N
Wisconsin River bridge aka 10W/13N
10W & 7S to Sayner area

With the temps going from the high 30’s to low 20’s on average this week the mushy pudding like SNOW is now frozen. Grooming last night should have made them pretty flat in most areas & in GOOD conditions. Expect icy conditions especially in the corners. The cold will also freeze up the few areas that were “wet” this weekend. Places like portion of Manske Swamp aka 3N, Wisconsin River Bridge aka 10W/13N.

Catfish & Eagle Lake trails are marked. There is surface slush on top of the ice. Remember if you hit slush “steady as you go”. Maintain speed. Please stay by the orange reflective barrels.

THINK COLD & KEEP DOIN’ THE SNOW DANCE!!! P.S. No evil sun either!!

See you on the trails!

Date of Report: February 3, 2020

Area Report:

Another Super Busy weekend on the Frosty Club Trails. Warm temps did not work in our favor either but Trail Boss Rob and the crew did a fantastic job of grooming late at night when the temps were at least below freezing. The colder forecast–below 0 even tomorrow night– should be just what the trails need. All Frosty Club trails are groomed and rated Good To Excellent. Kinda snirty right in town but once you get out in the woods all well.

News and Reports:

FROSTY CLUB and Bent’s Camp Radar Run is Saturday, February 15th. Gonna be the biggest and best one ever!

Many Thanks to Amy and her volunteers at The Black Oak for a very successful !st ever meat raffle yesterday!

Snowmobile Information:

Stay by the Barrels when riding the lakes. The colder weather in the forecast should help firm things up again.

Ride Right and Ride Safe!
