Trail Report: Manitowish Waters, Wisconsin – March 6, 2017

Trail Conditions: Poor

Snow Cover: 2-6

Date of Report: March 6, 2017

Area Report:

I just spoke with Dale Mayo (Vilas County Parks and Recreation Administrator) and let hem know our opinion.
In the interest of safety and a quality snowmobiling experience, The MW Sno Skeeters are in favor of temporarily closing the trails.
We have water issues in the swamps and poor trail coverage in general.
If we see winter again and have a chance to reopen before the end of March we would be more than happy to do what it takes to Re Open.

Also a big thanks to our trail Boss Mark Smit and Groomer operators: Bob Skrobot, Chris Sindberg, Mike Swatek, Bryan Klug & Wes Lupa!

Trail Report: Boulder Junction, Wisconsin – March 6, 2017

Trail Conditions: Poor

Snow Cover: 4-6

Date of Report: March 6, 2017

Area Report:

Trail report for March 6, 2017-Trails are poor.  The trails are still ride-able but with the warmer temps and the possible light rain today they could degrade quickly. There are bare spots, icy corners, and standing puddles. Out away from town in the woods it is pretty good.  I was out Saturday and overall we had a nice ride but conditions are only getting worse. Vilas county trail system is still open and we are only one snowstorm away from getting the trails back in good shape which March is always good for. Do your snow dance!  We can always use more snow and cold weather!!!  Please be careful out there! Remember be safe, ride right, and enjoy the ride.
