EAGLE RIVERS  TRAILS 
FAIR – POOR 
Trail 10W/13N 
aka Wisconsin River Bridge trail is 
CLOSED FOR THE REST OF THE SEASON

March 21 2019 7:10am – 32 – High 47 

Well the chances of getting to the end of the month are not looking as good as this did this past weekend.  The Vilas County Snowmobile Alliance had it’s monthly meeting tonight.  The 11 clubs that make up the Vilas County Snowmobile Alliance have unanimously voted to close the trails on Sunday, March 24 at midnight.  So if you are going to ride do it quickly.

Sunny skies have taken a toll on most trails in Eagle River.  The warm days & cold nights had turned the SNOW into really crystallized icy SNOW.  Frozen in the morning then soft as the day went by.  Looks more like a frozen snow cone on the trails in the morning.  The base is still hard ice in most areas except in town.  Snirt & dirt appearing as well.

No grooming.

These important updates continue if you choose to ride this last weekend of the season:

There is 1 logging operations going on where there is a need to use parts of the trails. Trail 13N by Deep Lake Rd. Plus utility work on 7 near Sugar Camp on the high line.

EAGLE LAKE TRAIL & CATFISH LAKE TRAIL ARE MARKED & OPEN. Lots of slush so for the more experienced rider at this point.

The 2 one-way trail areas are 10E from the ERRA Sports Arena all the way out to Nicolet Mini Mart.  The other is the 13’s up near Buckatabon Bridge & Bauer’s Dam area.  

Well we almost made.  Been a great season.  Here’s to another SNOWY 2019-2020 season!

Trail Report – : Boulder Junction, Wisconsin – March 20, 2019

Reporter:boulderwi

Trail Conditions: Fair

Snow Cover: 18-24 inches

Date of Report: March 20, 2019

Area Report:

Trail report for March 20, 2019– Trails are fair. It is currently about 24 Deg above zero. It is the first day of spring! With the bright sun and warm temps there was a lot of snow melting going on. The inside corners are wearing out leaving puddles and bare spots. We expect some light snow showers this morning turning to rain this afternoon. The trails get pretty good out away from town but with the warmer temps in the 50’s later in the week and weekend they will not last. It really looks like the last of the season is coming fast. The road routes and road crossings are very bare. Please use caution! Remember to be safe, ride right, and enjoy the ride.
