Trail Report – : Rhinelander, Wisconsin – January 19, 2023

Reporter:Hodag SnoTrails

Trail Conditions: Good

Snow Cover: 6-8″ of fresh snow!

Date of Report: January 19, 2023

Area Report:

Wow, we are thrilled to get 6-8″ of fresh white gold this morning. With the hard base, the trails should set up great. We have all the groomers out, trying to get the entire system completed prior to the weekend.

This is the shot in the arm we needed.

As always stay right when riding and stay close to the barrels on the lake.

Have some fun, enjoy the trails, and support the pitstops.

Snow Cover: 10-15 inches

Date of Report: January 19, 2023

Area Report:

It’s been snowing all day…. Hooray!! We’ve gotten at least 10″ or more of snow so far today. Groomers and operators will be out on the trails tonight getting things groomed up for the weekend! We have a “great” ice base under the new snow so hoping this will be the start to a wonderful weekend! But, remember there is a lot of ice under the snow so be careful in the corners.. stay on your side of the trail and have fun… it’s time to play!! 🙂

Hopefully tomorrow I can update you on actual trail #’s and their condition. Forecast is calling for snow through the evening stopping around mid-night.

Happy & Safe Sledding!!

Trail Report – : Lac du Flambeau, Wisconsin – January 19, 2023

Reporter:Toulish1

Trail Conditions: Good

Snow Cover: Back in the bear cage!!!!!

Date of Report: January 19, 2023

Snowmobile Information:

Ok, I measured a solid 5 inches at my house before I plowed snow. It’s still coming down pretty hard at 4 o’clock. Even before I got on the sled, I had another inch on the ground. Keith activated the groomer last night. He was hoping to arrange the base before the snow. I just ran the circuit, including Pokegama lake, and it’s a little bumpy in spots but with a fair amount of sled traffic working it, it’s a very decent ride on new snow with no grooming. We are on the raggedy edge of kawabunga. As Mr T would say, “ I pity the fool that don’t ride this weekend”. Mark

Trail Report – : Three Lakes – Brule River, Wisconsin – January 19, 2023

Reporter:Threelakeswi

Trail Conditions: Excellent

Snow Cover: 8-12”

Date of Report: January 19, 2023

Area Report:

Well, Mother Nature finally came through. 7-8” of fresh white gold has fallen. We will be out tonight working our magic. Trails will be in very good to excellent condition.
Lakes are all marked, stay close to the barrels for the safest ice.
Remember, the groomers have the right of way. If you come upon one, they will stop and let you by when it’s the safest. We typically groom at night, but there are times when you will see one during the day.

Trail Report – : Hayward / Sawyer County, Wisconsin – January 19, 2023

Reporter:haywardlakes

Trail Conditions: Good

Snow Cover: 12-16 inches

Date of Report: January 19, 2023

Area Report:

We received about 5-7” of fresh snow last night into today. Temps will continue to drop into the teens through the weekend, which is great news, as we need some ice. Lakes are rough and slushy, please stick to the marked trails.

Groomers are out and will continue to be out through the rest of the week and weekend. The trails were rough after the weekend with the heavy traffic and warm temps that prevented groomers from getting out, so they have been out cutting and smoothing out some of the big moguls and rough spots.

Please be courteous of the groomers. Move over when you see them, drive by at safe speeds, and stay on your side of the trail. Meeting a groomer head on or coming around a corner and riding up into the back of a drag will put a damper on your ride more than anyone else’s. Be smart!

Have a great weekend and ride safe!
