SNOWMOBILE TRAILS IN EAGLE RIVER
Plenty of SNOW with Varying conditions
Extremely heavy traffic


Boy oh boy!  Thought last weekend was really busy but this past weekend beat it by a mile!  Very large groups of as much as 20’s.  Riding today so will report what it’s like today.

Temps have popped way up into the 30’s & will be the same today.  So SNOW while deep is soft & mushy in open areas.  Again riding today will let you all know how the SNOW depth is holding up.  Temps will begin to drop late tomorrow with 10 for a low tomorrow, Monday night.  From there are is will be much colder.  Teens & low 20’s during the day & single digits or low teens at night.  THINK COLD!  Start DOIN’ THE SNOW DANCE!

  • Loon Lk Rd to Bloom Rd section of 10E rough
  • Section of 17N from trail 1 to Columbus Rd very rough
