OPEN
On average FAIR
New SNOW totals in Sno-Eagles Country, Eagle River are from 4 to 6 inches. Somewhat wetter SNOW overnight on Friday but still fluffy. SNOW continued into Saturday most of the day with a combination of “real SNOW” & Lake Effect. As for temps. COLD at night with below zero nights until Thursday. Highs in single digits with a jump to 13 on Wednesday. SNOW is not going anywhere.
The dryness of the fluffy SNOW & the number of riders out on the trails makes grooming hard for the drivers. Lays down smooth but with so many riders it doesn’t have time to set up. Back to moguls pretty quick. Trails are still very icy underneath. Slow down to be safe!

NOTE: Trail 10E out of Eagle River becomes a one way from the ERRA SPORTS ARENA all the way to Mikes Gas Station. It runs alone Hwy 70E. The south side of the trail is ONE WAY going EAST only. The north side of the trail is ONE WAY going WEST (back to Eagle River). Intersections are clearly marked with ONE WAY trail signs & DO NOT ENTER signs. Very dangerous to go the wrong way.
Catfish Lake & Eagle Lake Trails are marked with orange reflective barrels. Stay by the barrels as there is no guarantee the rest of the lakes are safe. They have icy spots so please slow down. Lots of lakes have ice heaves so be safe & stay by the barrels wherever you ride.
Time to Ride!!!! See ya on the trails!
