Area Report:
Washburn County snowmobile trails are still open at this time. With the colder temperatures at night, trail surfaces have been freezing and are becoming very icy. If riding in the morning, be cautious of icy surfaces. Grooming is still taking place, but on a less frequent basis. We are unsure at this time how much longer the trails will remain open, but they will most likely be closing in the very near future. Please note that a section of Trail 25, from County Highway D heading north to Nice Lake Road is closed for the remainder of the season and a Section of Trail 7A between Lincoln Lake Rd and Mckinley Lake Rd is closed as well but signs have been posted and a Temporary Route is signed for you.

We received 4.5 inches of fresh snow last night. They are calling for another round of heavy snow starting Thursday night into Saturday afternoon. Our regular season ends at midnight Friday. However the DNR extended our grooming season through Sunday. The private trails will still close the 31st so grooming will only be on state trails. Superior Snowmobile Club said they will continue grooming trail 3. Keweenaw Snowmobile Club announced they will be done grooming on the 31st. Please check with the clubs you might be riding in for trail closures.

Boulder Junction Snowmobile Club Trail Report – Wednesday, 3/29/2023
Our season will officially close on Friday, March 31, at midnight.
We had a great snowmobile season this year with the trails being open for 14 weeks starting on 12/23/22.
Our club groomed a total of 1264 hours for the 2022-2023 season.
Thanks to all our volunteers who helped in pre-season trail maintenance, our 11 groomer drivers, our board members, and all our volunteers that helped in in our various fundraisers.
We replaced our aging John Deere 8400 this season with a new New Holland T6 tractor and will be looking into purchasing a brush cutting attachment to help clean up our side trails during next year’ pre-season trail maintenance.
Thanks to all who visited and supported our area businesses this year and we look forward to seeing you next season.
