Early Riding – Frozen Ice Base
MERRY CHRISTMAS
Still too warm. Trails in Sno-Eagles Country are basically hard ice base. East still some loose SNOW but thing. Ice base in town. Wide open areas are seeing breakdown. What we need is SNOW! Best bet is head up to NORTHERN VILAS COUNTY – Especially Northwest corner.
Groomer Tracking System app shows no panning or grooming. Effort to hold the base.

Vilas County & the Vilas County Snowmobile Alliance voted to use donated safety funds for beacon lighting. It will be installed at the entrance/exit of lakes. They will flash red, green & white. This should help riders find the exit off the lake. Right click on the announcement to enlarge. Happy to report a new spur off the Trig’s trail. It takes you Chubby’s Family Restaurant. Right click photo.
Have been a few changes to the 2025-2026 Sno-Eagles map. Right click on photo to enlarge Think Cold! Are You Doin’ A Snow Dance! Holly Tomlanovich |
