Area Report:
Sno-Eagles – Eagle River Area
Trails Open
Fair to Good Early Riding Condition
10 Degrees at 6:30am. High of 18 today. About 1/2 SNOW overnight. Between this afternoon & Tuesday night 4+ inches forecast.
Catfish Lake Loop & Eagle Trail are OPEN & safe by the orange reflective barrels.
Through the weekend grooming continued & riders are reporting good riding with trails they rode groomed. Around a 5 inch hard frozen base with loose SNOW on top. The base is icy in many areas to be aware & be careful.
Trail Boss reports that last night groomers groomed Trail 13N, 10W, 17N & 3N.
Manske Swamp area of Trail 3 and WI River Bridge area of Trail 10W/13N not groomed. Still concern that the grooming equipment is to heavy to travel through until more freezing of those areas goes on.
