Wednesday, January 27th, 2010

 

All cross-country trail systems are open and continue too report excellent conditions.    A new coating of 3-5" fell over the last weekend and groomers say the new snow and grooming created some of the best conditions of the year.  Classic tracks are set

Snowmobile Trail Update – January 27, 2010 Snowmobile Trail Update

 A fresh snowfall has improved trails throughout the County.  The past weekend’s mixture of weather included four inches of wet heavy snow.  Trails are fair throughout the County with plenty of good trails.  Better conditions continue to be found in the Blue Hills and areas North of Ladysmith.  Groomers have packed the most recent snowfall and are reporting great conditions.  Trails in town and in exposed areas (fields) are still a little rough. More snow is in the forecast. There is no better time than now to get out and ride. Always ride with caution and be aware of changing conditions.
While you’re out riding this weekend be sure to stop by the weekend’s snowmobile event. Saturday, January 30, 2010

Snowmobile Trail Update – January 20, 2010 Snowmobile Trail Update
Again, no new snow in the last week with warmer than normal temps has resulted in a downgrade of the trails. Trails are in mostly fair condition throughout the County, with better conditions in the Blue Hills and Flambeau River State Forest areas. Trails in exposed areas, field crossing, road intersections and in town are in poor condition. A fresh snowfall would really help, and there is a chance of that happening this weekend. Groomers are continually working the trails, and report that the trail base appears to be solid. Always ride with caution and be aware of changing conditions.
  While you are out riding this weekend be sure to stop at this weekend’s snowmobile club event.

Snowmobile Trail Update – January 13, 2010
 No new snow in the last week, but conditions have remained fair to good, even with warmer temps.  Groomers are continually working the trails and are reporting mostly good conditions with some fair spots.  The trail base appears to be solid, and the good early season snow has maintained conditions.  Snow cover might be thin on exposed trails (field crossings), swamps, and road crossings.  Always ride with caution and be aware of changing conditions.

Snowmobile Trail Update – January 7, 2010 Snowmobile Trail Update
 Another 3-5" of snow fell in the last 18 hours to give the trails a fresh coat before the weekend.  Groomers are continually working the trails and are reporting mostly good conditions with some fair spots.  Recent cold weather has helped to freeze and pack down the trails, and the good early season snow has led to the good conditions.  Always ride with caution and be aware of changing conditions.  The first snowmobile club event of the season is this weekend, as the Weyerhaeuser Snowmobile hosts a Brat/Hot Dog and Chili feed at the Ponderosa Bar on Trail 133 off of Cty W., southwest of Weyerhaeuser
