Because of last weekend’s above freezing temperatures and colder temperatures this past week, the snow conditions on the trails have been causing
machines to overheat. It’s recommended that snow scratchers be used to avoid this problem.

Forest Rider Trails:
All trails are in Very Good to Excellent condition.

Willow Region Trails (reported by Jim Bosben, President):
All trails are in Very Good Condition.

Trail Concerns:
• Trail K East of TIN-671 has very little snow on Lower Kaubashine Road
• Trail 5 from TIN-517 to TIN-515 has logging trucks using the trail

Trail Closings:
• Trail 5 from Willow Road (TIN-525) to the Spillway (TIN-524)
• Trail A

Trail Grooming:
Corridor 12, Corridor 10, Trail 9, Trail 5 and Trail BB are groomed at least 4 times a week; All other club trails are groomed twice a week. To maintain quality trails, our grooming machines will be out during daytime hours.

Here is information for that app which allows you to track grooming activity on the Minocqua Forest Riders Trails.  The cost is $10 and half of the money will go back to the club:  https://www.groomertracker.com/how-it-works/

Weather Outlook (as reported by weather.com):
The high temperatures will remain steady in the mid 20s for most of the week with light and variable winds. Mostly cloudy skies will prevail with the best chance to see the sun on Monday. There’s a 60% chance of accumulating snow of up to an inch on Sunday.
