Please read report directly from the Trail Boss

There was a very high level of snowmobile traffic across our system all weekend. Groomer crews were out every night to keep up. Sunday’s unexpected sun and warm temps took a major toll. Last night, crews cut down moguls and smoothed excess snow into bare areas as best as possible while assessing the system. In-town trails and open areas with direct exposure are scorched to bare frozen ground. Conditions are very poor in many areas. Today is the worst of the weather days and will have the biggest negative impact.

Every potential sled that passes is only adding to the problem. We are pausing groomer operations this week until conditions allow.
The weekly Club rides are cancelled until further notice due to the conditions. Please check our website for the latest information – https://snoeagles.org/events/
We will keep you updated on conditions later in the week. Let’s hope for the rapid return of cold and snowfall! – Dan Dumas, Trail Boss Sno-Eagles Snowmobile Club.
There it is for you.  PLEASE STAY OFF TRAILS FOR NOW.
In the meantime THINK COLD & DO A SNOW DANCE!

Trail Report – : Mercer Sno-Goers, Wisconsin – February 23, 2025

Reporter:Snogoer1

Trail Conditions: Fair

Snow Cover: 1-3″

Date of Report: February 23, 2025

Area Report:

We are currently experiencing above freezing weather and it will last for the next few days. Main trails and road routes are taking a beating and will most likely be bare. However there is still plenty to ride, be creative, get out in the woods and out by the Turtle Flambeau Flowage. Look at a map and plan your route before you go out. Grooming operations have halted until colder weather moves back in. There is snow in the forecast going into the weekend so hopefully that replaces what we lose. Thank you for your support this season, it’s not perfect but we are making the best out of what we are dealt and we aren’t done yet!

Snowmobile Report – February 23, 2025
Trails south of Mellen are open and poor to fair conditions. Trails north of Mellen are closed at this time due to lack of snow. Sorry but the warm temps have are deteriorating the trails. Let’s hope for more cold and snow!!!

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.

Trail Report – : Conover, Wisconsin – February 23, 2025

Reporter:snobuddies

Trail Conditions: Fair

Snow Cover: 8-10”

Date of Report: February 23, 2025

Area Report:

All trails have been groomed Friday and Saturday. There was a ton of sled traffic this weekend. We groomed as late as we could to limit traffic on fresh groomed trails so they could freeze up. Some trails are holding up well, and other spots are getting bare to little cover. Temps are supposed to be above freezing during the day time this week, so grooming will probably be limited for now. More snow is needed. I’ll report back this week with any weather updates 

News and Reports:

Trail 12 from the RR grade TIN 732 to County K TIN 731 has ruts from ATVs. There isn’t enough snow to fill the ruts, but it is getting better. We put signs at each end of the trail for Caution Next 1 mile and Rough Trail. Use caution when traveling this area. 

The Cemetery Trail from TIN 724 to TIN 725, and south to TIN 727 at Church Rd is thin for snow cover. You will find a few bare spots, There is a hill between TIN 725 and TIN 726 at Lindberg Rd that was bare from sleds going up it. The swamp area did freeze up, so it is good to go.

To see where the Groomer is at, check out  Groomer Tracker  Half the cost of the app comes back to Conover Sno-Buddies to support grooming operations.

EAGLE RIVER TRAILS
OPEN
Fair on Average – Conditions changing quickly

Fine light SNOW as I report this morning 6 miles east of Eagle River.  Just like yesterday.  More SNOW Tuesday, Wednesday morning & Friday.  Warm up is here & will last until Friday. Weather guys forecasting temps & 30’s & even 40’s until next Friday for highs. For the most part temps at night will be in the mid 20’s & snow will freeze up.  Heavy, heavy traffic this weekend.  Some trails are fatigued out.  Grooming will switch over to panning to build up the base again.  Trails that run on the north & west side of road breakdown first keep that in mind when you ride.  As always woods riding is the best.  Road routes are for the most part still ice covered on the edges & right of ways on the roads in most place still have hard snow. Some road routes are hard snow covered as of this morning, like Taylor Lake Rd that is part of 10E which is a one way trail starting near the Sports Arena.  Heading out still pretty SNOW covered.  Head west back to town Fair to Poor.  Lots of sections with snirt.  Photo on the left was taken by drivers last night!  Not all bad!

GTS app shows almost full grooming session.  Right click on the map to see an enlarged version,

  • Trail 10W/13N heading north from the grooming along Hwy 45N near the WCDC Snowmobile Race Track.  All the way to the Conover Sno-Buddies connect.  Thin & fatigued in town. Better heading north.
  • Trail 10W13N Wisconsin River Bridge section – Rough & thin on the approaches. Frozen ice holding.  Bridge moguled.
  • Trail 10W/13N at the intersection west of the Bridge groomed in both directions.  13N & 10W snow covered but fatiguing from the high traffic.  Snirty on hills, again from the high traffic.  13N groomed to Conover Sno-Buddies connect at Trail 45.  10W all the way to connects with Sayner Barnstormers & St. Germain BoBoen trails.
  • Trail 10/13 from the groomer barn heading sough to the intersection behind the Dairy Queen.  Trail 70W groomed all the way to the St. Germain BoBoen connect. For the most part snow covered.
  •  Trail 13S & 7 that split off 70W past Parsons Motors groomed to connect with Sugar Camp at Ripco Rd.  Trail 7 groomed to Sugar Camp connect at Hwy H. Good to Fair. Snow softened yesterday & frozen again last night
  • Trail 3N/17N which split from 10W13N by the Best Western was completely groomed Trail 3N is a new re route & sill choppy & is snirty.  Same for sections of 17N. 
  • Trail 1 that splits of of 17N & head to Eagle Lake.  It runs along Deerview Ln & then Town Hall Rd. Remember to ride the trail that is in the ROW

Eagle Lake & Catfish Lake crossing are safe only by the orange reflective barrels.  No surface slush as of this morning.  That may change with the warm up.

1/2 inch new SNOW!  See ya on the trails!
