Trail Report – : Boulder Junction, Wisconsin – February 9, 2026

Reporter:boulderwi
Trail Conditions: Good
Snow Cover: 8-10"
Date of Report: February 9, 2026
Area Report:

Currently, it’s 35 degrees out with mostly cloudy skies followed by mild temps mid-week and
warming into the low 40’s by the weekend.
We last groomed 8E, 2W, 8W, 51, 15N, and 6E Saturday evening and 15S/11 early Monday a.m..
We will be out grooming 15N/6E, 2W, 8W, and 51 later this evening.
Overall, our trails are in good riding condition, but the snow is getting old and there are thin
spots showing up in the corners. With the milder temps mid-week, the trails will soften up and
start to wear down faster. Get out early for the best riding.
We have 2 fundraisers going on this week. On Thursday 2/12, we will be having our Spaghetti
Fundraiser at the Rustic Roadhaus starting at 4:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m. and on Sunday 2/15 we
will be having our Breakfast fundraiser at The Guides Inn from 8:30 a.m. to 11:00 a.m..
Please ride safe, ride right, and enjoy the trails and area businesses while in our neck of the
woods!
Look for an updated trail report on Thursday, 2/12.

Trail Report – : Lac du Flambeau, Wisconsin – February 9, 2026

Reporter:mcpossin

Trail Conditions: Excellent

Snow Cover: Wow

Date of Report: February 9, 2026

Snowmobile Information:

Ok, with Mary being very busy, and me being laid up, we will both bring you trail reports as we can, with trail boss Nicks help. Team Hornshoe at it’s best.

The report is excellent. Trails are here, wish you were beautiful, if I could see under the helmet and layers. We have been getting small dustings each day so it adds some fluff. Be cautious in the corners as some are getting icey.

We are looking at a warmup starting Thursday through Tuesday. Upper 30’s and even 41 Saturday. Back in the 20’s at night so loaner Hornshoe groomer should be able to womp up some magic to keep the trails going.

Been a troubling year for reckless behavior. No reports on our trails, but some skirmishes on some northern county trails. High speed passing on the left, sleds in the middle of a group hugging inside corners, and sleds running side by side on the trails. What is it? Inexperience? No fear? We can’t police it, and the sheriff and DNR have limited resources. If you see something, and can, try and call people out nicely and ask what they are thinking. We want you to come and have fun, but go home in one piece so you can come back.

Don’t forget the Hornshoe Brat Fry. Trail 17 at the Hornshoe Kiosk, and Mattke Rd. THIS SATURDAY, February 14, 11 AM to 2 PM.

Have Fun!!! Mark

Short report as we are riding today. Heading east on 10 to either Phelps or Three Lakes. Temps are up & want to see what it’s like in the woods. Will do a report either later today or in the morning.

IMPORTANT NOTICES as of 8:00am:

TEMPORARY TRAIL CLOSURE

We have temporarily closed Trail 13/10 (WI River Crossing) tonight from TIN 103 to TIN 105 due to a mechanical issue on a groomer. The trail is currently impassable to snowmobile traffic. The gates at each end of the WI River crossing have been closed. We will have crews responding back out tomorrow morning to try and get the machine moved. We will update once we are able to reopen the trail.

One of the Sno-Eagles groomers is experiencing an issue with GTS grooming reporting. So be aware that if you are using the APP to know what was groomed it may/will not be accurate.

Daily Reminders:
Reminder that Trail 13S does not run all the way to Three Lakes as a portion was closed. The Club is working on a reroute.

Eagle Lake was marked by businesses. There are 3 color safety lights at entrance & exit from/to the lake trail

Catfish Lake is NOT MARKED. Uncertain it will open as there are no businesses open on the lake this winter. If you have not ridden the lake in the past DO NOT ATTEMPT at night. There are spots that can be thin or even open water. NO safety lights

See ya on the trails!!

Trail Report – : Rhinelander, Wisconsin – February 9, 2026

Reporter:Hodag SnoTrails

Trail Conditions: Excellent

Snow Cover: good solid base

Date of Report: February 9, 2026

Area Report:

The solid base and hard work of the groomer drivers are keeping the trails in near excellent condition. Mother nature will be attempting to poke holes in the system with the warmer temperatures and little new white gold this week. The sled traffic slows considerably in the week, so the trails should maintain status until the weekend.

With the warm temperatures, the trails will get soft this weekend with the normal weekend traffic. Hodag Sno-Trails will continue to be grooming nightly to maintain the system. The drivers have reported some icy corners due to the lack of fresh white gold.

The lakes are in good shape and marked accordingly.

Get out and ride, and enjoy the conditions.

Trail Report – : Conover, Wisconsin – February 8, 2026

Reporter:snobuddies

Trail Conditions: Excellent

Snow Cover: 10-12”

Date of Report: February 8, 2026

Area Report:

We have groomed the entire Conover trail system Friday and Saturday night. The usual trails that get a lot of traffic were their usual condition, we did our best to smooth them back out. Traffic was low last night, so hopefully with the cold temps last night, they froze in nice and flat.

We keep getting very light snow falls of an inch or less. We could use a good 4-6 wet snow fall to freshen up the trails, but we are still working with what we have. A few areas are getting bare but not bad. Road routes do have some snow on them, but towns have been plowing them off and winging the edges off.

Remember to follow the barrels when crossing lakes. There is a large ice heave out in the middle of North Twin Lake. A few sleds have gone wide of the barrels and hit the ice heave where it is quite a bit higher than the rest of the ice. If you cross where the barrels are with lights, it is pretty flat now. Also, the night time speed limit is 55 mph everywhere.

Right Right, Ride Safe

Evil sun partly out this morning. Temps in the 20’s-30’s. Hope the ice base holds the SNOW. Not much SNOW in the forecast. Looks, at this point, that it will be next Monday the 16th to Friday the 20th before any accumulating SNOW. Need a SNOW DANCE!!

SNOW softened yesterday out east of Eagle River heading east & west. Grade is under cover & in good shape. Through town soft to but covered. Heading north on 10/13 good too. That section right after crossing Hwy G still has Chop. Scooting around on 3 & 17 was also soft. Road section (Shangri La Rd) pretty bare. Didn’t go west yesterday. There was Saturday traffic, but not near like last Saturday. Remember RIDE RIGHT.

Here’s what GTS Groomer APP shows what was groomed last night into early morning today. GREEN means groomed overnight. BLUE means groomed Thursday into Friday. BLACK means no grooming for 3+ days. About a 1/2 grooming session. RIGHT CLICK TO ENLARGE MAP

This helps to groom where it’s needed.
