EAGLE RIVER TRAILS
OPEN
On average FAIR
Tons of sleds on the trails this past President’s weekend! Heavy traffic everywhere. By yesterday afternoon trails were rough & some had moguls. 6 inches new SNOW at the beginning of weekend. More Saturday. Both Lake Effect & “real SNOW” but not much moisture. Sunday another 2 inches. Skiff last night. No SNOW forecast for the next week. Temps will be all over the place. From today until Saturday single digits or below zero every night. Teens then moving up to the 20’s during the day as the week moves along. Pretty typical mid-February weather. Evil sun will be out some days.
Nearly every trail groomed last night.
GTS Groomer app photo shows the trails groomed last night(right click on photo to enlarge) App is available for download to your phone. Green means groomed.
HERE ARE THE TRAILS NOT GROOMED:
- Trail 10W13N from Hwy G to Conover Sno-Buddies connect
- Trail 10W from west of the Wisconsin River Bridge heading west
- Trail 1 of of 10E that head to Chanticleer Inn & Eagle Lake trail
- Trail Grampa Grahm off of 10E that heads toward Eagle Waters Resort
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!!! ya on the trails!
