Trail Conditions: Fair
Snow Cover: Mushy base frozen plus 4-6"
Date of Report: February 20, 2026
Snowmobile Information:
OK, so Hornshoe trails beachhead got pounded by the warm temps and sun. But then we received snow I would say 4-6″ by my house. Trailboss Nick reports that the trails in the sun are thin, the road trails in the sun are pavement, and the lake trails are excellent. Follow the blazers on the lakes since the trails are packed down. Out of the blazers you may end up riding on a mushy snowcone. Overall Nick rates fair to good.
CAUTION CAUTION CAUTION: Been a bad year for reckless driving and alcohol related incidents. A lot of 2nd and third riders in the group hugging the inside curve like the leader is clearing the trail of oncoming traffic. Pay attention, ride right and stay right. Observe the 55 MPH at night because Big Brother has been watching-especially the lake accesses.
Have fun and be safe. We put a lot of volunteer time in to make Hornshoe Trails the best. We want you here to enjoy our trails, patronize our businesses, but ride right and stay in one piece.
