Trail Report – : Walworth County, Wisconsin – February 23, 2021

Reporter:Ryan Strand

Trail Conditions: Closed

Snow Cover: 12-18″

Date of Report: February 23, 2021

Area Report:

Trails are CLOSED as of 6AM this morning. Today’s weather is going to hurt big time 45F and full sun in late February generally doesn’t fair well for wide open fields and a lot of road crossings. The next 5-6 days sees fairly warm weather as well with no new snow. Let’s hope this isn’t it for the year but right now it doesn’t look promising. Yes the trails look nice right now but please stay off they are closed! We need to protect our landowners property from any damage so we can continue to use their property well into the future. If things turn around in the coming weeks we will report back.

Thank you.

Trail Report – : Sayner, Wisconsin – February 23, 2021

Reporter:SaynerStar Lake Barnstormers

Trail Conditions: Good

Snow Cover: Minimal

Date of Report: February 23, 2021

Area Report:

Riding reports over the past weekend were very good, even as the temps began to rise.

We are still grooming nightly. Since we are not always able to hit our entire system every night, we’re usually getting to each trail at least every other night. We’ve received a couple fresh inches of snow since Sunday and that has helped clean up some of the snirt. It is still very dry and not packing well. There is supposed to be another 2-4″ coming overnight tonight. With the warmer temps, this “should be” a much needed wet snow! Frankly, 2″ of wet snow does us more good than 10″ of fluff. With temps expected to drop below freezing for the next couple days, we should hang on to some really good riding conditions!

I still maintain that 70% of our system is in very good condition, with some sections being excellent (the northern parts of trails 51 and 7). 20% is good condition, and 10% (mainly closer to towns) is fair. This forecasted snow should improve these conditions.

The portage between Plum and Star lakes was groomed last night and left in very good condition. Of course, this trail gets pounded with traffic, so it’s hard to say how long it will stay good. Again, this is NOT a funded trail and our club DOES NOT get compensated for grooming it, which is why it doesn’t get groomed as often as the rest of our system.

Logging operations are continuing throughout the northwoods and in many areas where snowmobile trails are located. Loggers have first priority! PLEASE be respectful of them and make every attempt to stay out of their way. DO NOT engage with them. Loggers have a legal right to close any snowmobile trail where they are working. They are being cooperative with the clubs and working with us the best they can. PLEASE do not give them reason to close the trails.
Hintz’s North Star Lodge is currently closed. Therefore, we have closed the trail leading to their establishment. If and when they are open for business, we will reopen that trail. Please respect them by not riding across their property.

Thank you for your patience and support. Ride Right and Stay Safe!

Gogebic Range Trail Authority – Snowmobile & ORV Club Trail Report 2/23/2021

Warm temps and traffic put a beating on our main corridor from Wakefield to Ironwood. 4 miles of trail between Wakefield and Bessemer is snirty, and then sections of the rail trail from Bessemer to Ironwood are snirty as well. No grooming occurred last night due to temps, but trails are remarkably flat yet with bumps in the tight corners only. Temps drop this evening into tomorrow allowing the crew to get out and get the corners recovered and snow moved in where needed. Side trails remain in good to very good condition with short sections near towns downgraded to fair

Gogebic Area Groomers Report 2/23/2021

All trails in the Lake Gogebic Area are still reported to be in good to excellent condition. All trails were groomed Sunday night with the exception of 1N due to a drag failure.
