Snowmobile Information:
Please stay on the trail. A lot of Ashland County snowmobile trails are on farmers land, please be respectful so we don’t lose our easement to their property. Snowmobiles may not be modified, or operated, to amplify or otherwise increase the total vehicle noise above the originally manufactured snowmobile noise level.
As always please follow the snowmobile trail rules and regulations.
As always operate with everyone’s safety in mind and report any hazardous trail issues that are observed to the Ashland County Sheriff’s Department (715-682-7023 opt 1) so that it can be forwarded to the appropriate service.
The Tri-County Corridor is open from Superior to Ashland. There are still several areas on the eastern end that require attention but all known hazards have been identified and marked. Use caution when approaching ribbons, barricades, and cones.
Important reminders: There is no snowmobiling allowed from Ashland to Bad River/Odanah as snowmobiling is not permitted on reservation land. However, snowmobiling is allowed from Bad River east to the Upper Peninsula of Michigan.

The Phelps grooming operations will start up again tonight. We are waitng for you sledders to pack some of this snow down. Please use cation on the corners and hills as they are very icy under the new snow. 1″-2″ of snow are on the way for tonight and anoter storm systemm heading towards us come Monday. Temps should be great for riding this weekend. We have a report of an ice heave on the North Twin Lake Trail between downtown and the town landing near the Great Escape and the Phelps Conveinence Center. Please use caution there and everywhere.

Area Report:
Well the storm seems to be over… we think received between 12 – 15 inches… but so hard to truly know with all the wind and drifting that came with the storm. I think it’s safe to say at least 12 inches and maybe a little bit more. So this is what we have all been waiting for and so “HAPPY” to see it here. I can’t really give you an accurate trail report tonight as most of the groomers and operators will be going out early in the morning to start to smooth down the new snow… but I can tell you by tomorrow evening I believe most of the Iron County Trail System will be in Good to Very Good condition again. The ice base is still there and under the snow.. so hold the speed down a little bit in the corners and sit back for hopefully a wonderful ride all weekend long! This storm front covered a large area so riding should be good no matter what direction you head this weekend!
Also, a reminder that Trail 15 N to the intersection of Trail #111 is temporarily closed this season because of a bridge issue… this is not a new closure it has been closed all season.
Again, a BIG “Thank You” goes out to the Iron County Snowmobile Club Members for grooming our trails and donating their time to keep our trails as smooth and safe as possible. Great group of people and we ALL appreciate what they do for our community and for our trails!!

Area Report:
Last night’s snowstorm brought anywhere from 10-12” of fresh snow! A few groomers have been out already, but the rest will be out tonight and in the morning as the snow sets.
This new snow has helped the lakes. There are a few bare spots and drifts from the wind, but for the most part lakes have some snow coverage again. Please do still ride with caution knowing it is slick under the new fluffy snow. When temps drop tonight things will set up and as riders pack it down the conditions will get better.
Birkie Week is upon us, just a heads up about the events of the weekend. There are no trails that close due to the Birkie other than in the town of Hayward. Railroad Street will close as well as parking for sleds at Marketplace through Sunday. If you choose to ride into town, you will dead end on Highway 27 or trail 63. You can ride to town to watch if you’d like but will need to park prior to Railroad Street and walk in. Lake Hayward is not staked, nor will it be open on Saturday as the skiers cross. There are some trails in the Seeley Hills that do cross the Birkie trail, there are no closings but on Saturday you may find some delays at these crossings. The delays are short; take a minute to wave and cheer these racers on! It’s an incredible feat they are accomplishing!
Thank you for your support, ride safe and have a wonderful weekend!
