The photos above were taken later yesterday afternoon.  Left photo is Trail 10E northside.  Middle photos is Trail 70W section behind the Super 8.  Right photo is Trail Alt13 aka 3 heading south out of Eagle River.  Check  back in the morning for photos I’ll be taking today.

Groomer Tracking Systems (GTS Trails) reports in the last 24 hours most of the Eagle River trails were groomed.  So here are the trails not groomed

  • Trail 70W heading west & connects to St. Germain trails
  • Trail 17S/13S/7 heading south from the intersection with 70W to the Sugar Camp connect. Trail along Hwy 17S
  • Trail 7 aka the Paintball Field which heads west to the Kathan Inn area along Hwy H
  • Trig’s Shell section of the City trail to Bloom Rd
  • Uncle Kent’s trail
  • Trail 1 that turns off 10E next to Dollar Lk Rd on it way to Eagle Lake trail

Riding in the area found GOOD to VERY GOOD conditions with areas of EXCELLENT.  Trail 10E & the 13’s in the Buckatabon/Bauer’s Dam area are 2 EXCELLENT trails. No problem areas to report at all as of yesterday.  Today temps are coming up so conditions will change.  At this point no trail burn throughs at all. Stay tuned.

Catfish & Eagle Lake trails are marked.  Conditions on both lakes may produce surface slush with temps up & sun out.  Remember not all lakes are safe.  Check maps & looks for markers.  If you don’t see any the lake is not safe. P.S. There is a 55mph nighttime speed limit.

It’s Friday & traffic will pick up. Be sure to stay on the right side when riding. Straight aways, corner & hills.

KEEP DOIN’ THE SNOW DANCE!!!  

See ya on the trails this weekend!
