Snow & Trail Condition Update - January 23, 2018

The forecasted snow storm produced significant snowfall in the area - anywhere from 8-12" in the County.  This is exactly what we needed, and once groomed all snowmobile and cross-country ski trails will be open and in good condition.

Snowmobile Trails  -
Tomorrow (January 24) at 8am, ALL Rusk County Snowmobile Trails will be open (with only a couple exceptions - noted below).  The Sheldon Snowmobile Club is out grooming today, which allows the Southeast quadrant to join the rest of the County in being open.
Exceptions to trails being open - Corridor Trail 31 from the Village of Bruce to Dejung Rd. is closed (update expected soon).  There is also a bypass trail on Trail 99 about 5 miles north of Flambeau Lodge - to avoid the work of some beavers - look for caution signs and the bypass trail in this area.
This weekends Snowmobile Event is the Hawkins Sno-Hawks Brat feed on Saturday, January 27.
