Rusk County Snowmobile Trails remain closed until additional snowfall is received. Very little base exists at the present time. Snowfall amounts around the County vary greatly, and more snow is needed. Rivers, streams, and swamps are not frozen over yet either. Check back for updates.

Enough snow fell over the weekend and groomers will be out on the various trail systems early this week. Conditions are unknown at this time, but plan on using rock skis until a based be established.

It would appear as if the season is done as quickly as it came (albeit tardy). Well, what can we say – it as a a fun week. See you next season.

Trails will continue to have adequate snowcover for some time, especially the Blue Hills Trails. However, warm conditions during the day are limiting grooming and only providing a couple hour window in the morning (as long as temps get below freezing overnight), when skiing is good.

Trails conditions are deteriorating rapidly, and we have some updates from the local clubs. Hawkins has closed trail #25 north of Hawkins due to a bridge closure. Ladysmith has shut trails down in the City of Ladysmith (trails are bare), and Trail #98 between Conrath and Ladysmith is closed. Poor conditions are generally being reported from around the County, and road crossings, trails adjacent to roads, and exposed areas are in the worst condition. Trails in the Blue Hills are maintaining some snow and likely provide the best riding. If you do choose to ride use extreme caution, treat all water bodies (streams, rivers, swamps, etc.) as being unsafe, and be on the look out for slushy areas. It is unknown if trails will remain open through the weekend. We will post updates as we receive them.

Trails remain open and and are fair to poor throughout the County. Trail conditions are deteriorating with warm weather and rain. Check back as trails could close before weekend.

Corridor Trail #25 North of Hawkins is closed due to a bridge closure.

Effective immediately – Rusk County Snowmobile Trails are OPEN. Trails WILL NOT be groomed, so expect less than good conditions. At this time it is unknown if or when grooming will occur.

Well, we received a big snow dump… no word yet from the local snowmobile clubs on if or when trails will open or on grooming plans. I imagine everybody needs to get out of their driveways first. Check back – we’ll update as plans become known.
