Area Report:	Snowmobile Trail Update - March 5, 2009 Rusk County Snowmobile Trails have again had to close. Effective immediately all Rusk County Snowmobile Trails are closed due to deteriorating trail conditions. Trails could reopen in the future if conditions are suitable. Check back for updates. Welcome to the more than 300 miles of expertly groomed trails in beautiful Rusk County. Everything you want in a snow blanketed northwoods winter trail wilderness is right here. Ride into our friendly county and experience the unparalleled splendor of the majestic Blue Hills north of Weyerhaeuser and Bruce in western Rusk County. And, while you're here, stop by one of the two heated warming shelters where you'll find Franklin stoves, picnic tables and an ample supply of firewood. Or, travel along historic rivers and under lush canopies of white pine bows, bending under the weight of fresh snow in southern and northeastern Rusk County. Don't forget to stop along the way at any number of our excellent supper clubs where you'll experience true northwoods hospitality. Lodging is available throughout the area, and eight active snowmobile clubs keep Rusk County's trails well marked and groomed throughout the season.
