Welcome to the Boulder Junction Trail Reports page. As regular visitors to Boulder Junction will know, the local snowmobile club offers some of the finest riding in the Midwest.

The 130 miles of trail in and around the Boulder Junction area are constantly groomed throughout the season, to keep them in tip-top shape. The trails are connected to hundreds of miles of Vilas County trails, and thousands of miles of northern Wisconsin trails. It's no accident that our area continually wins awards for best snowmobile destination. It is also worth noting that Boulder Junction lies far enough north that we are well inside the U.P. snow-belt. We often receive lake effect snow that communities to our south do not receive.

Theresa Smith <boulderjct@boulderjct.org> - Wednesday, March 11, 2020 at 08:53:09 (PDT) Trail report for March 9, 2020 – Trails are poor. The present temp is 24 degrees above zero and mostly cloudy. We groomed on Friday after the snow we had, and the trails turned out very nice. With sunny days and the temps reaching into the 50’s the last two days the trails in our trail system turned from good to poor. The next few days are expected to be in the 40’s for highs. This is not good. Please stay on marked trails. The corners and other areas are getting bare and very icy. Road routes and road crossings are bare. The cabin fever party on Saturday was a huge success! I would like to thank Jesse, Crystal, Jimmy Dean and their crew for hosting this event. I would also like to thank Jen and everyone that helped and supported this event. Thanks! Remember to be safe, ride right, and enjoy the ride. Jim (Hammy) Hamilton BJSC President Theresa Smith <boulderjct@boulderjct.org> - Monday, March 09, 2020 at 07:54:25 (PDT) Snowmobile trail report for March 6, 2020 – Trails are in GOOD condition. We went out yesterday to inspect our trails by snowmobile and with the approximately 4 inches of heavy wet snow we received most of our trail system is very flat with a very hard base. With the very little amount of traffic and the added amounts of snow it really made it an enjoyable ride. It may not last very long because we are expected to have some warm weather the next few days and our trails could degrade very quickly. My advice is to get out there and ride while the conditions are this good. Please stay on marked trails. The corners and other areas are getting bare and very icy. Road routes and road crossings can be bare. Please use caution! Please join us at our annual Cabin Fever Party this Saturday March 7th at the Boulder Beer Bar from 2:00 pm to 8:00 pm. Lots of fun will be had by everyone!  Remember to be safe, ride right, and enjoy the ride. Jim (Hammy) Hamilton - Boulder Junction Snowmobile Club President Boulder Junction Chamber <boulderjct@boulderjct.org> - Friday, March 06, 2020 at 06:14:36 (PST) Trail report for March 4, 2020 – Trails are still open but are poor to fair. It was snowing yesterday but not more than a dusting of accumulation. It is presently about 16 degrees above zero and partly cloudy. The last few days there has been very little traffic on the trail. With the temps for the next few days rising to the mid 30’s to the mid 40’s the trails will continue to degrade. In the woods out of town the trails are much better. There still is some riding for that diehard snowmobiler. Please stay on marked trails. The corners and other areas are getting bare and very icy. Road routes and road crossings are mostly bare. Please use caution! Remember to be safe, ride right, and enjoy the ride. Jim (Hammy) Hamilton BJSC President March 7: Snowmobile Club Cabin Fever Party Theresa Smith <boulderjct@boulderjct.org> - Wednesday, March 04, 2020 at 07:09:31 (PST) Trail report for March 2, 2020 – Trails are still open but are poor to fair. The sunshine yesterday along with the temps in the mid 40’s really took a toll on our trails. With the temps expected to be in the high 30’s to the 40’s for the week we have suspended our grooming until further notice. I wish I had better news but without some fresh snow and colder temps the trails are down to the base and will continue to degrade. This could be the beginning of the end. The corners and other areas are getting bare and very icy. Road routes and road crossings are mostly bare. Please use caution! Remember to be safe, ride right, and enjoy the ride. Jim (Hammy) Hamilton BJSC President March 7: Snowmobile Club Cabin Fever Party Theresa Smith <boulderjct@boulderjct.org> - Monday, March 02, 2020 at 07:21:34 (PST) Trail report for February 28, 2020 – Trails are fair to good overall. The present temp is 10 above zero and sunny. The last couple of days has been mostly cloudy with cooler temps. This has really saved our good conditions. We have been grooming and the trails have been turning out rather nice with the little snow we have. With the increase in traffic over the weekend and the warmer temps possibly in the 40’s the trails could degrade very quickly. The good conditions may not last very long. We will have to wait and see. The corners and other areas are getting bare and very icy. Road routes and crossing may be very bare. Please use caution! Remember to be safe, ride right, and enjoy the ride. Jim (Hammy) Hamilton BJSC President March 7: Snowmobile Club Cabin Fever Party Theresa Smith <boulderjct@boulderjct.org> - Friday, February 28, 2020 at 07:07:54 (PST) Trail report for February 26, 2020 – Trails are fair to good overall. The present temp in Boulder Junction is 12 above zero and light snow. It is mostly cloudy and should remain overcast and a dusting of snow for the rest of the day. The warm sunny days since the weekend have degraded our trails quite a bit. We have been out grooming last night and the night before when the temps cooled down. Even though there was very little snow to work with the trails surprisingly turned out good. The base is getting very thin but with the limited amount of traffic, cooler temps, and continued cloudy skies the trails should not degrade as quickly. We need more significant amounts of snow and subzero temps to get the trails back in excellent shape but will do what we can with what we got. The corners and other areas are getting bare and very icy. Please use caution! Remember to be safe, ride right, and enjoy the ride. Jim (Hammy) Hamilton BJSC President March 7: Snowmobile Club Cabin Fever Party Theresa Smith <boulderjct@boulderjct.org> - Wednesday, February 26, 2020 at 07:25:13 (PST) Trail report for February 24, 2020 – Trails are fair to good overall. Over the weekend there was very heavy traffic Our trail counter just went over 20,000 for the season! The weather from the last few days has not been very kind to us. It has been very sunny, and the temps reached into the 40’s. This took a toll and degraded the trails quite a bit. Todays temps may reach in the high 30’s and we don’t expect snow until maybe Thursday. This will further degrade our trails. We will have to wait and do what we can until we get more snow and colder temps. Be aware with the high snowbanks at intersections visibility is diminished. The corners and other areas can be icy so use caution. Flagging and signs are up for a reason. STAY ON THE TRAIL! Some snowmobiles are going off the trails and getting stuck in the deep snow. Remember to be safe, ride right, and enjoy the ride. Jim (Hammy) Hamilton BJSC President March 7: Snowmobile Club Cabin Fever Party Theresa Smith <boulderjct@boulderjct.org> - Monday, February 24, 2020 at 07:17:31 (PST) Trail report for February 21, 2020 – Trails are good to very good. The Groomers were out last night, and this morning and the trails turned out very nice. With the lack of snow on the trail there is not a lot of snow to work with to lay out a nice flat trail but with the cold weather the trails have gotten stiff and hard. We are expecting a warmup over the weekend and the trails could get very soft. Along with the increase in traffic this could make the trails get bumpy very quickly. The groomers will be out doing the best they can to make your ride more enjoyable. The corners and other areas can be icy so use caution. Stay on marked trails! Remember to be safe, ride right, and enjoy the ride. Jim (Hammy) Hamilton BJSC President Theresa Smith <boulderjct@boulderjct.org> - Friday, February 21, 2020 at 07:10:40 (PST) Trail report for February 19, 2020 – Trails are good. The present temp in Boulder Junction this morning was 10 below zero and may stay in the subzero temps throughout tomorrow. There is no snow expected soon and we might have a warm up starting Friday. It could reach in the 40’s for highs by Sunday. There has not been a significant amount of snowfall for quite some time now. We were out grooming and even with the lack of snow on the trails they have been turning out very nice. The corners and other areas can be very icy. Please use caution. Our trail counter is over 18,600 since opening day! Stay on marked trails! Remember to be safe, ride right, and enjoy the ride. Jim (Hammy) Hamilton BJSC President February 22: Gooch’s A-1 Bar & Grill Rebuild Benefit March 7: Snowmobile Club Cabin Fever Party Theresa Smith <boulderjct@boulderjct.org> - Wednesday, February 19, 2020 at 07:02:34 (PST) Trail report for February 17, 2020 – Trails are good. The present temp in Boulder Junction this morning is 8 above zero. The rest of the day we could get temps in the low 30’s. The groomers were out last night and laid out a nice flat trail. With the subzero temps in the early morning the trail stiffens up and will stay smoother longer. We are expecting some more snow later today but looks like only a couple of inches. We could really use more snow to freshen up our trails. The corners and other areas can be bare and icy. Use caution. I would like to thank Chef Jesse and Chef Jimmy Dean and their crew for hosting the breakfast fundraiser at the Boulder Beer Bar Sunday. I also like to thank all the helpers and everyone that supported and made this event so successful. It was a great breakfast spread! Stay on marked trails! Remember to be safe, ride right, and enjoy the ride. Jim (Hammy) Hamilton BJSC President February 22: Gooch’s A-1 Bar & Grill Rebuild Benefit March 7: Snowmobile Club Cabin Fever Party Theresa Smith <boulderjct@boulderjct.org> - Monday, February 17, 2020 at 07:02:19 (PST) Trail report for February 14, 2020 – Trails are good. Happy Valentine’s Day! This morning the temp in Boulder Junction was 25 below zero. Brrrr! Bitter Cold. Riding the trails at these temps can be very dangerous. Cold weather injuries and mechanical failures can occur very quickly. Use extreme caution! We were out grooming last night and will be out grooming throughout the weekend. With the lack of snow on the trail many spots and corners can be icy. No snow is expected until maybe Monday. Please join us at our breakfast fundraiser held at the Boulder Beer Bar this Sunday February 16, 2020 from 8:30 to 11:00. All proceeds go to trail maintenance so if you like great trails for snowmobiling, support this event! Stay on marked trails! Remember to be safe, ride right, and enjoy the ride.

The present temp today here in Boulder Junction is 14 Deg. We had a dusting of snow yesterday and may get a dusting of snow for the next few days. We also expect the temps for the next day to get colder with highs in the single digits. With the lack of snow on the trail it’s hard to keep the trails flat and there are many areas that can be icy, and the snow can be very hard especially in the corners. Please use caution. The groomers are out there doing the best they can to make your ride more enjoyable for you. When you see them give them give them a thumbs up and follow all directions from the groomer. They can be out on the trail any time day or night. Pray for more snow! Stay on marked trails! Remember to be safe, ride right, and enjoy the ride.

This morning the temp was 14 below zero. Very cold! With the very heavy traffic over the weekend and the lack of snow it was very hard to groom out a nice flat trail. The snow from the storm Sunday all went south of us and we just got a dusting.  It is expected to stay in the low 20’s for most of the day with highs in the high 20’s for the next couple of days so the snow on the trail should not melt. We will do what we can to groom out a good trail, but we really need more snow. We are expecting some more snow on Wednesday but will have to see how much we will get. Some corners are getting bare and icy so use caution.  Stay on marked trails! Remember to be safe, ride right, and enjoy the ride.

Today and the next few days it is expected to stay cooler in the teens and low 20’s. We may get some light snow later today but there is a good chance of some significant amount of snow on Sunday. With the large amount of traffic expected for this weekend we will be out grooming every day to do what we can to make a smoother ride for you. Some corners are getting bare and icy. Be aware that groomers can be out at any time of the day or night. Take all directions from the groomer. Stay on marked trails! Remember to be safe, ride right, and enjoy the ride.

The last few days with an arctic blast of below zero temps and light traffic the trails have stiffened up. Our groomers were out last night and this morning grooming our entire trail system. With the temp reading at 18 below zero this morning the trails are rock hard and should stay smoother for a longer time. We expect cooler temps in the 20’s and teens for the rest of the week, although not the subzero temps we received the last couple of days. There is no snow in the near forecast but expect some snow maybe at the end of the weekend. We could really use some new snow to freshen up our trails. Stay on marked trails! Remember to be safe, ride right, and enjoy the ride.

With the very heavy traffic and the very mild temps the flat trails did not last long and got bumpy very quickly. The forecast for the next few days is expected to get cooler. If this happens the trails could stiffen up and stay smoother longer after we get done grooming them. There is no snow expected soon and it could get sunny by the middle of the week. We have had some riders going off trails on private lands without permission. Please do not do this. These trails could be shut down and everyone will suffer. Stay on marked trails! If meeting a groomer take all direction from the groomer. They are out there any time of the day or night to make your ride more enjoyable. Remember to be safe, ride right, and enjoy the ride.

The weather for the weekend is expected to stay very mild with temps reaching in the high 30’s to maybe the low 40’s. There may be some very light snow showers. Since the season has opened our trail counter as counted over 14,000 sleds! With the high amount of traffic expected along with the warm temps the groomed trails will degrade quickly. One good factor is it is supposed to stay mostly cloudy over the weekend. We will continue to groom throughout the weekend and do what we can. Be aware some corners are starting to get bare and icy. A big thanks to all that helped on maintenance night at the groomer shed doing oil changes and grease jobs on our groomers and drags. Stay on marked trails! Remember to be safe, ride right, and enjoy the ride.

With the weather staying in the 30’s for highs the trails remain soft and get bumpy quickly. Get out early to ride the good trails. We are finally back to full strength after having some mechanical problems with our drag. A big thanks to everyone involved getting that problem fixed. It looks like the weather will continue to stay mild for the next few days. We will continue to groom and do what we can do make your ride more enjoyable. I was out on the trails yesterday and the trails were great! Thanks Groomers! Be aware that groomers can be out at any time of the day or night and take all directions from the groomer.

Over the weekend we had a lot of traffic. With temps in the 30’s and the soft snow the bumps were created quickly. We experienced some mechanical problems with our groomers during the weekend we were down to one groomer, grooming our trails. With the temps not helping us out we were grooming around the clock when we could. The trails we groomed really turned out nice but did not last very long with the heavy traffic. We will get our groomer back together today and be back to full strength. The weather doesn’t seem to be cooperating and is expected to stay in the warm temps for the next few days. We will just do what we can do. Please use extreme caution in all areas! Stay on marked trails! Remember to be safe, ride right, and enjoy the ride.

We got a little snow yesterday and expect to get some more snow over the next few days. With the temps staying in the 30’s the trails are getting very soft which can create bumps very quickly. The temps are expected to stay in the 30’s over the next couple of days and heavier traffic over the weekend which will not help us out any. We will continue to do the best we can to groom out a nice trail for you to ride. With these warmer temps it can become very slick out there so watch out.  Please use extreme caution in all areas! Stay on marked trails! Remember to be safe, ride right, and enjoy the ride.

With the decrease in traffic and the added snow from the weekend our groomers did a great job on the trail yesterday. We are expecting more snow in the next couple of days, maybe 2 to 4 inches. The temps may get warmer staying in the 20’s and may reach into the low 30’s. The snow we do receive will be a very wet snow. The groomers can be out at any time of the night or day. Take all directions from the groomer. The groomers are out busting butt grooming, clearing hazards, and fixing signs while you’re in bed sleeping to make a safer and more enjoyable ride for you. Give them a thumbs up. Please use extreme caution in all areas! Stay on marked trails! Remember to be safe, ride right, and enjoy the ride.

This morning the little bit of lake effect of snow we got is ending. The temps are expected to be in the 20’s for highs today. More snow is expected in the middle of this week. Over the weekend we experienced very high volumes of traffic but had our groomers out doing the best to make your ride more enjoyable. With the added amounts of snow we received we were able to lay out a nice flat trail but without the subzero temps the trails remain soft and can create bumps very quickly. Some corners are starting to become bare and icy. I would like to thank everyone that worked and supported our breakfast fundraiser at the Aqualand Ale House yesterday. It was a great time had by all! Please use extreme caution in all areas! Stay on marked trails! Remember to be safe, ride right, and enjoy the ride.

We got some snow to freshen up our trails. The added snow, along with the subzero temps made the trails nice and flat. It stiffened up our trails and groomed out very nice overnight. Temps overnight were subzero, and we expect 4 to 6 inches of snow over the weekend. That is very good. We will be out grooming throughout the weekend to make the trails nice and flat. With the large amount of snow and the heavy traffic expected, it can create bumps very quickly.

With the few inches of snow we received the other day we were able to groom out a very nice flat trail. We are expected more snow today and tonight. We will have to wait to see how much we get. With the temps expected to stay in the 20’s throughout today the trails remain soft and can get bumpy very quickly. We could use a nice subzero freeze to stiffen up the trails. It does look like we might get some colder temps later tonight. Please use extreme caution in all areas! Stay on marked trails! Remember to be safe, ride right, and enjoy the ride.

Today it is snowing but not much accumulation. With the lack of fresh snow there is not a lot of snow to work with on the trail, but the trails are turning out nice and flat. We are expected to get more snow tomorrow, but we will have to see how much we will get. The temps have been staying colder so the snow on the trails is not melting. If it keeps snowing throughout the week the trails should remain just fine. Watch out for groomers who can be on the trail any time of the day or night. Follow all directions from them. Thanks to everyone who worked and supported our fundraiser Brat Fry at the Granary Saturday. It was a good time had by all!  Please use extreme caution in all areas! Stay on marked trails!

The groomers were out last night and will be out throughout the entire weekend. There is little snow to work with on the trail, but we can lay out a nice flat trail. We are expecting some snow over the weekend but doesn’t seem to be any significant amounts. With the increase in traffic over the weekend it is best to get out early since the warmer temps degrade the trails quickly. On Saturday January 11, 2020 we are having a fundraiser Brat Fry at the Granary from 11:00 – 2:00. We invite you to support this event. Hope to see you there. Please use extreme caution in all areas!

The weather the last few days has cooled down and last night throughout this morning has been in the single digits. This has kept our trails from melting. It snowed last night and looked like it was coming down pretty good while we were grooming but turned out to be just a dusting. There are warmer temps expected later this week and maybe a small wintery mix for Thursday. There is no significant amount of snowfall soon. The snow is starting to wear out on the trails and getting thin in areas but is still turning out flat when groomed. At least with the lack of snow on the trail it does not create big bumps. Please use extreme caution in all areas! Stay on marked trails! Remember to be safe, ride right, and enjoy the ride.

Our groomers have been out grooming the trails and they have been turning out very nice and flat. There is not a lot of snow to work with but enough snow to do a good job. The weather looks like it will be sunny today and temps up into the 30’s which is not good for our trails. The next few days we expect a cool down, but we could really use a nice few inches of snow followed by a subzero freeze. Without that the trails remain soft and bumps are created quickly. Please use extreme caution in all areas! Stay on marked trails! Remember to be safe, ride right, and enjoy the ride.

Going into the New Year we have had a lot of sleds going over our trails. We have been grooming and will be out grooming for the entire weekend. Our weather remains cool and maybe some snow on Sunday but not a lot of snow expected. The snow on the trails is very clean and white but without the subzero temps the trails are not setting up and are staying soft. With heavy traffic the trails can get bumpy very quickly. We need some subzero temps to really make the trails hard. We will be out doing what we can to make a better ride for you. Please use extreme caution in all areas! Stay on marked trails!

I Hope everyone had a safe and Happy New Year. We got about 10+ inches of snow Sunday night through yesterday. We were out last night grooming and will be grooming today all trails leading into town. With all this snow along with an increase in traffic it creates bumps very quickly. Since opening day of our trails opening, we have had over 4000 sleds on our trail. This started out to be a very wet and heavy snow Sunday and will pack very well. With cooler temps it will help increasing our base. It would really help if we had some subzero temps to stiffen up the trail. We are at the hands of Mother Nature and we take what she gives us. Please use extreme caution in all areas! Stay on marked trails! Remember to be safe, ride right, and enjoy the ride.

The bad news is that the temps the last couple of days were in the 30’s with rain and lots of traffic degrading our trails rapidly. The good news is that it is snowing right now we are expected to get several inches of snow through today with cooler temps. We will just have to wait to see how much snow we receive. 6” to 9” is expected. Along with cooler temps our groomers will be out grooming to make a better ride for you starting tonight. Be aware that groomers can be out grooming at any time of the day or night grooming. Take all directions from the groomer. Please pray for more snow and subzero temps. Please use extreme caution in all areas! Stay on marked trails! I hope everyone has a safe and happy New Year. Remember to be safe, ride right, and enjoy the ride.

The snow on our trail system has been melting the last few days and is expected to continue to melt over the next few days. With the increase of traffic this weekend and adding warm temp with rain on Saturday night the trails could degrade quickly. Our groomers have been and will be out in the middle of the night when the temps are below the 30’s to groom and do what we can do to make the trails better. Snow is expected Sunday night with cooler temps early next week. Please pray for more snow and subzero temps. Please use extreme caution in all areas! Stay on marked trails!

We have had a lot of traffic on our trails during this holiday season. Our groomers have been out Christmas eve and Christmas day working to make the trails better for you. A big Thank You goes out to them for their outstanding work. The trails are starting to get some moisture and are beginning to pack down with the warmer temps, but we really need some subzero temps to stiffen them up and make them solid. The forecast is not in our favor and looks like we will have continued warm weather in the 30’s for the next few days. Pray for snow and cold weather. Please use extreme caution in all areas! Stay on marked trails! Remember to be safe, ride right, and enjoy the ride. Merry Christmas to everyone!

Since the opening on Friday we have had a lot of traffic on Boulders trails. We had some warmer weather in the high 30’s the last few days and our base is still forming. We started off with fluffy snow lacking moisture and not packing well so when we groom it a dozen snowmobiles with paddle tracks just rip it up. We expect the continued warmer weather adding moisture but without sub-zero temps at night it won’t stiffen up the trails. Groomers have been out throughout the weekend. A good wet snow with a freeze up would be great but the forecast is not calling for it. Just be patient and be thankful we do have snow currently on our trails. Please use extreme caution in all areas! Stay on marked trails! Remember to be safe, ride right, and enjoy the ride. Hope Everyone has a Merry Christmas!

All trails in the Boulder Junction Trail System have been panned and are just starting to create a base. We are happy to report that the trails are in EXCELLENT early season riding condition. I would like to thank everyone involved for their hard work in making it possible for the trail system to be opening. There were a lot of downed trees and limbs on the trail. Please use extreme CAUTION! Some areas have ruts. With the large amounts of snow we’ve had in the last few weeks, hazards and debris can be on the trail. The swamps and boggy areas in the trail system are still freezing up. Please stay on the marked trails. Be careful! Keep thinking snow and cold to hold and improve our conditions as we head into the season. Remember be safe, ride right, and enjoy the ride!

ON FRIDAY, DECEMBER 20 FOR THE 2019-20 SEASON. The volunteers that make up the eleven snowmobile clubs in the Vilas County Snowmobile Alliance (VCSA) have been working hard to get the Vilas Snowmobile Trail System open in a timely manner. The last round of snow storms resulted in a lot of trees down throughout our trail network. The ample snowfalls insulated the wet areas resulting in clubs having to pack snow in these areas. The cold temperatures will assist in the freezing. Please stay off area lakes until trails are clearly marked going across them.

It is currently about 18 Deg above zero. The snowmobile trails will officially close at 11:59 P. M. Sunday March 24, 2019. The road routes and road crossings are very bare. There are puddles and bare spots on the corners and other areas. Please use caution. Away from town the conditions do get better and there is very low traffic. Our trails will continue to degrade over the next couple of days with the warm temps. I would like to thank everyone involved in making our trails top notch and the great job our groomers did. We had a great season! Remember to be safe, ride right, and enjoy the ride. ~Jim (Hammy) Hamilton, Boulder Junction Snowmobile Club President Theresa Smith <boulderjct@boulderjct.org> - Friday, March 22, 2019 at 07:07:39 (PDT) Trail report for March 20, 2019– Trails are fair. It is currently about 24 Deg above zero. It is the first day of spring! With the bright sun and warm temps there was a lot of snow melting going on. The inside corners are wearing out leaving puddles and bare spots. We expect some light snow showers this morning turning to rain this afternoon. The trails get pretty good out away from town but with the warmer temps in the 50’s later in the week and weekend they will not last. It really looks like the last of the season is coming fast. The road routes and road crossings are very bare. Please use caution! Remember to be safe, ride right, and enjoy the ride. ~Jim (Hammy) Hamilton, Boulder Junction Snowmobile Club President Theresa Smith <boulderjct@boulderjct.org> - Wednesday, March 20, 2019 at 07:05:10 (PDT) Trail report for March 18, 2019– Trails are good to fair. It is currently about 2 deg above zero. We were out grooming last night and early this morning. The trails turned out surprisingly good. There was very little traffic and with the cold weather over night the trails set up very nice. There are some puddles and the inside corners are wearing out in some areas. Road crossings and road routes are getting bare. With less control with your machines in these areas please use caution. The midday temps are expected to increase throughout the week and weekend. If you still want a good ride the time to get out is NOW! With anticipated low traffic and partly overcast skies the trails should hold up for a few days. High temps towards the weekend could be in the 50’s. OUCH! Remember to be safe, ride right, and enjoy the ride. ~Jim (Hammy) Hamilton, Boulder Junction Snowmobile Club President Theresa Smith <boulderjct@boulderjct.org> - Monday, March 18, 2019 at 08:27:25 (PDT) Trail report for March 15, 2019– Trails are fair. It is about 20 deg above zero and it is snowing very light. The last two days with the rain and warm temps really took a toll on our trails. Out away from town the snow is very clean, less traffic and melting slower. The trails have turned very icy. Trails at road crossings and road routes can be bare. At road crossings snow banks are still very high with lowered visibility. Please use caution. With decreased control on icy trails please watch out for other riders. We are expected to have overcast skies today and temps in the 30’s so the trails might last a little longer. This coming week with warmer temps could badly degrade the trails. We will have to wait to see. Remember to be safe, ride right, and enjoy the ride. ~Jim (Hammy) Hamilton, Boulder Junction Snowmobile Club President Theresa Smith <boulderjct@boulderjct.org> - Friday, March 15, 2019 at 07:59:19 (PDT) Trail report for March 13, 2019– Trails are good. The current temp is about 28 deg above zero. The trails are holding up right now. We are expecting some warmer temps in the mid 40’s later today and rain for tonight and tomorrow morning. With more rain and warmer temps on Thursday this will start to degrade our trails drastically. With the rain it can get slick on the trail. Please use caution. One good thing is there may be some more snow during the end of the week, and we will have to wait to see how much snow we get. Another good thing is last year at this time we had stopped grooming for about two weeks and had many bare spots on the trail. Remember to be safe, ride right, and enjoy the ride. ~Jim (Hammy) Hamilton, Boulder Junction Snowmobile Club President Theresa Smith <boulderjct@boulderjct.org> - Wednesday, March 13, 2019 at 07:37:11 (PDT) Trail report for March 11, 2019– Trails are good to very good. It is presently about 4 deg above zero. Over the weekend the warmer temps softened the trails up. With the increased traffic over the weekend the nice groomed trails did not last very long. We got a few inches of snow yesterday. The groomers will be out tonight and early tomorrow morning and do what they can to make a nice trail for you. Follow all directions from the groomer. The extended forecast does not look good. We expect warmer temps and rain by the middle of the week. Our trails have plenty of base but with extended warmer temps and rain will deteriorate our trails very fast. Get out and ride while we still have good conditions. I was even out on the trails this weekend and had a blast with the boyz! Remember to be safe, ride right, and enjoy the ride. ~Jim (Hammy) Hamilton, Boulder Junction Snowmobile Club President Theresa Smith <boulderjct@boulderjct.org> - Monday, March 11, 2019 at 07:23:13 (PDT) Trail report for March 8, 2019– Trails are very good. It is currently about 12 Deg below zero. There may be an increase in temperature during the next few days. We are expecting a snow storm over the weekend and we will have to wait to see how much snow we get. With all this snow we have we should have very nice trails until the end of the month. The snowmobile trails will close March 31, 2019! The groomers were out last night and early this morning. With the cold weather at night the trails stiffen up and stay flatter longer. We expect increased traffic over the weekend so watch out for other riders. The snow on the trails is very clean and has decreased melting to a minimum on the bright sunny days. Please stay on marked trails. Use caution at road crossings. The snow banks are very high, and visibility is very low. Remember to be safe, ride right, and enjoy the ride. ~Jim (Hammy) Hamilton, Boulder Junction Snowmobile Club President Theresa Smith <boulderjct@boulderjct.org> - Friday, March 08, 2019 at 07:17:14 (PST) Trail report for March 6, 2019– Trails are very good. It is currently about 20 Deg below zero again. Brrrrr! With this very cold weather at night and the low amount of traffic during the mid-week the trails are staying nice and flat. Thanks to our groomer crew for that! There may be a light snow later this afternoon with highs in the teens. That should make for some good riding. Always use cation and watch out for other riders on the trail. A warm up is expected the next few days with highs in the 20s and 30s. We are expecting a significant snow storm this weekend and could be a very wet snow. We will have to wait to see how much snow we will get. Groomers can be out at any time of the day or night.

It is currently about 20 Deg below zero. Brrrrr! With the very cold temps at night the trails stiffen up and stay flatter longer. We will be out tonight and tomorrow morning with our groomers to lay down a nice trail for you. With the expected lower traffic during the beginning of the week you should experience a great ride. With the enlarged size of snowbanks use caution at intersection road crossings with diminished visibility. We had a very great successful cabin fever party fundraiser at Gooch’s A-1 Bar over the weekend. I would like to thank Gooch and his staff, all the volunteers, and everyone who came out to support this event. A very special thank you goes out to Jen Beda for her great job and time organizing this event. Looks like we have great snow conditions to last to the ending date of the snowmobile trails closing on March 31, 2019 There will be no extensions! Get out there and ride the trails now.

We got a few inches of snow last night. Yesterday I took a ride with the wife and we did a short loop to Manitowish Waters. The trails were flat and stiff with the below zero temps. There was very little traffic and it was a very enjoyable ride. The Boulder and Manitowish Waters groomers did a great job. Thanks! With all the snow visibility at intersections and other areas are decreased so use extra caution. Signs on the trail may have become snow-covered. The groomers are clearing the snow from the signs but if you encounter a snow-covered sign on the trail help us out and brush the snow away so riders can see it. Please stay on marked trails. Flagging and signs are up for a reason. STAY ON THE TRAIL! Some snowmobiles are going off the trails and getting stuck in the deep snow. Watch out for the other riders on the trail.

The current temp is about 10 below zero. With the last snow storm over the weekend people have been digging out and snow removal is on overtime. The snow we just received over the weekend is about 13+ inches. The deep snow on the trails creates hazards. Broken trees and limbs can break and be blocking the trail. Please use extreme caution! The groomer was out cleaning up some very large pine trees and limbs blocking the trail last night. Thanks to those snowmobilers that helped me out clearing the trail last night. The groomers will be out tonight and tomorrow Grooming a nice flat trail for you. With the large amount of snow on the trail any amount of traffic can create bumps very quickly. Use caution. Signs on the trail can be covered with snow. If you encounter this, please help us to wipe the snow away to make the signs visible. Please stay on marked trails. You can get stuck in all that soft powder snow.

Yesterday through this morning we received 12” plus of snow. With that much snow we have more than enough snow to work with for our drags to lay out a nice trail. Also, with that much snow the trails can degrade quickly. The temps are above zero at this time and expected to average in the high teens for the next few days. The groomed trails with the warmer temps remain soft and don’t stiffen up and stay flat for long. With all the snow we got the corners and other areas remain icy. Please use caution! The snow that was dumped on us seems to be over and another light snow expected on Thursday. The traffic appears to be light through the middle of the week. Have fun in the snow.

The several inches of snow we received yesterday made a lot of people very happy. The groomers were out last night and early this morning laying down a nice flat trail. We expect heavy traffic over the weekend. With all the snow we got it doesn’t take long before the trails degrade quickly. Washboard bumps can form very fast especially near town in congested areas. The temps dipped down below zero last night throughout this morning. This helps firm up the trail and it stays flatter longer. With all the expected increase in traffic this weekend lookout for the other riders. The corners and other areas remain icy. Please use caution. The groomers will be out during the night and early morning over the weekend doing what they can to make a great trail for you to ride on. Remember to be safe, ride right, and enjoy the ride.

Our groomers were out last night and early this morning grooming our complete trail system. With the lack of new fresh snow there is not a lot of snow to work with on the trails. The only good thing is the very cold temp we are having. The cold temps are stiffening up our trails and staying flatter longer. We expect heavy traffic over the weekend and no snow in the forecast expected. With the lack of snow on the trails the corners and other areas can be bare and icy. Please use extreme caution.

On the trails last night, the snow was very soft and mushy. We had warmer temps and freezing rain. With the colder temps today and hopefully for the rest of the week the trails should stiffen up and stay flat for a longer time. We expect heavier traffic towards the weekend. If we would get a few inches of lake effect snow every few days and colder temps that would help improve our conditions but there is no snow in the forecast throughout the weekend. With the low amount of snow on the trails the corners and other areas it can be bare and icy. Please use extreme caution. Remember to be safe, ride right, and enjoy the ride.

Over the weekend there was heavy traffic. We were out grooming but with warmer temps the soft snow over our base does not stiffen up and the sleds blow all the snow out of the corners. The groomers grab the snow and put it back into the trail but the next couple of sleds blow it back out again since the snow is soft and sugary. The snow is just wearing out. We need colder temps and more fresh snow. We are expected to get colder temps starting mid-week and through the weekend but not much snow. Hopefully we will get some lake effect snow from the cold temps. We still don’t have enough snow to fill in the ruts and bare spots in some areas. In other areas it’s nice and flat with great riding. Please use caution with the icy bare spots and corners. Our Groomers will be out tonight and tomorrow morning to do the best they can do. We just got to roll with the punches that Mother Nature gives us. Remember to be safe, ride right, and enjoy the ride.

With the colder temps and not so heavy traffic the trails have turned out very nice. We had our groomers out last night and this morning to complete our trail system. We have some areas with ruts and bare spots and there still is not enough snow to fill them up. If we would get a couple of inches of snow every few days, it would greatly improve the trail conditions. With too much snow it creates big bumps quickly. Looks like there is no snow expected over the weekend but the colder temps will remain. Be aware that groomers could be on the trail at any time of the day or night. Use caution. When seeing a groomer on the trail please yield and take all directions from the groomer driver. Remember to be safe, ride right, and enjoy the ride.

With the additional much needed snow we got Monday really helped our groomers smooth out the trails. There has been minimum traffic during the early to mid-week and the colder temps has stiffened up our base. The base is still very thin. We can always use some more snow. I’m expecting more traffic starting on Thursday so we will be out grooming trying to do the best we can do with what we have got. If we keep getting more snow and the colder temps remain, we will be fine. Please use caution in all areas. The corners and many other spots are bare and icy. Pray for Colder temps and more snow.

With the temps in the 30’s over the weekend and lack of any snow did not help our trail system. With the 4 inches of snow we received starting at about 12:00 AM this morning we were out with our groomers and it really help to improve them. We were hoping for more snow than what we got but we always do. We will go out tonight to complete our trail system and hopefully the warm temps and rain expected today will be at a minimum in our area. Please use extreme cation in all areas! It is very icy and bare in corners and many areas. I would like to personally thank Lee & Pam for hosting our fundraiser Brat Fry at the Granary on Saturday.

MONDAY MARCH 19TH, 2018. Conditions have continued to deteriorate and most trails have become unrideable. Trail report for March 16, 2018 Poor. The warm weather over the weekend has degraded our trails even further. Road crossings and road routes are very bare. The trail conditions do get better out in the woods away from town but there still is bare spots and they are getting bigger. Most of the trail is down to the base and very icy. Looks like we are not going to get any snow in the near forecast and temps will remain around freezing. Sorry I don’t have any better news. Remember to be safe, ride right, and enjoy the ride.

With no snow in the forecast the trails have remained very much the same. The trails are down to the base and bare in spots but out away from town are much better.

With some warm weather and sunshine over the weekend the trails continue to deteriorate. There are bare spots and puddles in some areas. The trails are very icy and down to the base. Out in the woods away from town it does get better. There is not a lot of traffic which helps some. Road routes are getting very bare and icy. The continued warm weather and sunshine will continue to degrade our trails. Sorry I couldn’t give better news. Remember to be safe, ride right, and enjoy the ride. The Vilas County Snowmobile Alliance President has contacted all 11 Clubs. The recommendation from these 11 Clubs to the Vilas County Park & Recreation Administrator is to have the trails remain open this weekend. The clubs will again communicate Monday or Tuesday of next week to determine how long we can keep them open. This may be one of your last weekends to ride for the season.

The few inches of snow we got at the beginning of the week and the low amount of traffic made the trails ridable. With the temps in the mid 30’s and increased traffic over the weekend I don’t think our trails will stand up and will degrade very quickly. There are bare spots and puddles in some areas.

We received some snow yesterday and got about 2 inches. To the south of us they got more. I went for a ride yesterday and inspected half of our trail system. The conditions were pretty good overall. Near town it is very bare and snowmobile routes on roads are mainly blacktop. There are some puddles in some areas and parts of the trail were down to dirt with just the fresh snow covering it. The trail is very hard and down to the base but with the added couple inches of snow it made the ride enjoyable. The humps and bumps were at a minimum and there was very low traffic (saw some tracks but no sleds on the trail). With that said I don’t know how long that will last. I will be out today to inspect the rest of our trail system and it is snowing right now but no expected snow accumulations in the near future. The temps are expected to be in the 30’s for the weekend. We will just have to see how thing turn out. Remember to be safe, ride right, and enjoy the ride.

With the continued warm weather over the weekend our trails really took a hit. The trails are down to just the base in spots and can be bare and icy in spots. Road crossings and road routes are down to the bare blacktop so use caution riding in these areas. In the woods away from town the trails get much better but can still have ice and bare spots. It is expected to get in the middle 30’s today which will continue to degrade our trails but tonight we will get a storm system with about 2” to 4” of snow in the Northwoods. We will have to see how much we will get by tomorrow morning. Pray for a lot of snow! Remember to be safe, ride right, and enjoy the ride.

The weather sure has not been good to us lately. We did receive a couple of inches of snow yesterday, but it won’t help all that much. It is expected to be in the 40’s over the weekend and it’s going to melt a lot of snow. We will have to see how bad it will get. The trails seem to be pretty good out in the woods but around town they are very bare and poor. We have our biggest fundraiser this Saturday at Gooch’s Bar- Cabin Fever Party. Please come out and join us for a lot of fun. We have a great dinner and a lot of prizes to win. Remember to be safe, ride right, and enjoy the ride.

The last two days with the temps in the 40’s and sunshine has degraded our trails drastically. The warm weather will continue through the week and the snow will continue to melt. There are bare spots and puddles on the trail with road routes very bare. There is some snow expected later tonight and tomorrow but is only supposed to be a dusting. When you get out in the woods the trails get better with a little more snow. The humps in the trail are melting into the low spots and leveling off the trail. Please be careful at road crossings where your skis of your snowmobile can get stuck on the bare blacktop. We just have to take what Mother Nature gives us.

With all the snow we received over the weekend the trails were filled with powder snow. The trails were very good after we groomed but with all the traffic the trails degraded very quickly. We were out last night and groomed our entire trail system so this morning the trails will be super! If you wait until the end of the day before the groomers go out the trails can get humps and bumps. We have a warm front coming in and temps can be in the 40’s all week long. This is not good, and we will have to see how much the warm weather will damage our trails. There is a storm system expected on Thursday and we will have to see if it is rain or snow.

We got a few inches of snow last night so we should be able to go out and groom and lay out a nice trail. The trails are still very thin. We should be out grooming our trails all weekend. The corners can be very bare and icy and the active logging areas have very little snow. Logging equipment can be on the snowmobile trail at any time so use caution. If you see a groomer on the trail, please take all directions from the groomer. They are out there to make the trail better for you so give them a break.

With the additional few inches of snow we received on Monday night and Tuesday morning really helped our Groomers to lay out a nice flat trail. We groomed our entire trail system and all trails turned out nice. The trails are very thin with not much snow. The corners can be bare and icy. The active logging areas have very little snow. We will just have to see how long it will last with the sunshine today. There is some snow expected toward the weekend and we will have to see how much we get.

Over the weekend we had a lot of snowmobile traffic on our trails. The trails near town and out in the open have degraded rapidly but out in the woods away from town they are not to bad. The dusting of snow we got on Saturday really did not help anything. The good news is that we have some snow on the way for later today and tomorrow. If we get over a few inches of snow this will only help to get our trails back in good shape. The corners can be bare and icy, and the active logging have very little snow.

Over the last two days our trails have degraded rapidly. The temps in the 40’s on Wednesday were really bad for the trails. In the open areas it is getting brown and bare. We are expected to have a high volume of traffic over the weekend and no significant amount of snow in the forecast until the end of the weekend. The only good thing is that the temps are going to get a little colder. The corners are very bare and icy and active logging areas have very little snow. Our groomers will be out to do the best that they can do. With the heavy volume of traffic on the trail please use caution. Don’t forget our fundraiser breakfast at Headwaters this Sunday.

Tuesday night and today Wednesday morning we groomed our complete trail system. There is very little snow, but we were able to get all the humps and bumps out. The trail is very thin with snow and the corners are getting bare and icy. Active logging areas have very little snow. The temps last night got down to about 10 deg. Today we are expected to get some warm weather in the 40’s This will not be good for the trail and could degrade our trail drastically. The temps for Thursday are expected in the 30’s. With the long weekend coming and the high volume of traffic expected we will have to see how our trails hold up. There is no significant amount of snow in the near forecast and we need that snow to freshen up our trails. Mother Nature is in charge and controls everything! Pray for snow!!!

Last night and early this morning we have groomed our entire trail system. It turned out very smooth, but we are down to very little snow left on the trail. There are bare and icy corners. There is very little snow in the active logging areas. There was heavy traffic over the weekend but is down to a minimum now. We are expected to have a warm up over the next few days and no snow in the forecast. This could degrade out trails rapidly. We will just have to wait to see how warm it will get.

We are expected to have subzero weather to continue over night throughout the weekend. It is about -12 below right now with highs in the teens over the next few days. There is no snow in the forecast for our area and looks like all the snow is going down by the Milwaukee-Chicago area. Our groomers have been out and will continue through the weekend and have been able to lay out a nice flat trail. With the additional heavy traffic over the weekend the trails can degrade quickly. The corners are still bare and icy and active logging areas have very little snow. Please use caution! Keep on marked trails. We need more snow. Remember to be safe, ride right, and enjoy the ride.

With the continued sub-zero temps the trails have remained in pretty good shape. We sure could use some more snow. Our groomers have been grooming and the trails are nice and flat. The corners are getting very icy and bare. There is very little snow in the active logging operations and logging equipment can be on the trail at any time. Please stay on marked trails. When you see a groomer try to get off the trail completely and take all directions from the groomer driver. There is not much snow in the forecast for the rest of the week but with the cold weather it will not degrade our trails to badly. Please pray for snow and do your snow dance.

Over the weekend we received a few inches of snow and help freshen up our trails. There was a lot of traffic over the weekend. Our Groomers were out and able to lay out a nice flat trail. It is very cold this morning about -12 Below. It is expected to stay in the low teen for the highs and snow is probable towards the end of the week. We still have a very thin base and corners are bare and icy. The active logging areas still have very little snow. With the continued snow and cold will help thicken up our base. Mark your calendars for February 18th. We will have a Snowmobile Club fundraiser breakfast at the Headwaters. It’s a great breakfast so please support us. It’s less than two weeks away!

With the couple inches of snow we have received over the last few days and the continued cold temps has saved our trails from getting any worse. Our groomers have been out doing a great job trying to get out all the humps and bumps on the trail. We will continue to groom during the weekend. The trails are very thin with very little base. There still is very little snow in the logging areas and logging equipment can be out on the trail at any time. The corners are still bare and icy on some portions of the trail. We are expecting some snow on Saturday and will have to see how much we will get. A few inches would really help our trails get in good shape.

The trails have very little snow and are bare and icy in the corners. With the snow system we got last night only left us with an inch plus. The temps are expected to stay in the single digits for the rest of the week which is good not to degrade our trails any further. We really need a good snowstorm to get the trails back in A1 shape again. There is another snow system coming this way maybe on Saturday. We will see how much snow we will get.

We have been grooming our trails this week and will continue to groom on a full schedule throughout the weekend.

We expect to have heavy traffic on the trails this weekend so be sure to lookout for other snowmobiles on the trail. Our temps are supposed to get above freezing for the weekend and this could degrade our trails very quickly. There still is very little snow in the active logging areas.

With the additional 9 inches plus of snow we got the trails turned out very good. The Groomers were out and groomed our entire trail system in the last 24 hours. We will continue to groom throughout the week. With all this fresh powder snow it can create washboard humps on the trail quickly with just an average amount of traffic so hit the trails early. We are also expecting warmer weather towards the end of the week which can deteriorate the trails. The active logging operations have very little snow and can have logging equipment on the trails. Corners can still be bare and icy. Please stay on marked trails. Remember to be safe, ride right, and enjoy the ride.

Over the weekend with the temps warming up and the heavy traffic our trails turned bad quickly. There were over 1200 snowmobiles counted on our trail counter from Friday thru Sunday. Most of our trails have turned brown and getting thin and soft. The good news is that this afternoon we are expected to get a snowstorm of 6 inches plus coming directly to the Northwoods in our area. This snow is very well needed. Our Groomers will be out during the week to smooth out the trail. Use caution in active logging areas. There is very little snow and logging equipment can be on the trail at any time. With all this snow coming there can be very low visibility so watch out for oncoming snowmobiles.

We have no snow in the forecast until maybe Sunday night. We also will have additional traffic in the area due to the World Champion Snowmobile races in Eagle River this weekend.

Use caution in active logging operations where low snow conditions exist. Be careful in the corners on the trail. They are getting bare and icy. Groomers can be out on the trails any time. Take all directions from the groomer. Please stay on the marked trails. Remember to be safe, ride right, and enjoy the ride.

I hope everyone had a Merry Christmas. We have groomed all our trails before the cold arrived on Christmas and there was very little traffic. The trails had time to set up and they are flat and rock hard. There isn’t much base but with a little more snow they could turn out very nice. The wet areas are freezing up solid. It is -25 below zero out right now (burrrr) and cold weather injuries and mechanical failures can happen very quickly. Watch out! Over the holiday season there is expected to be a lot of snowmobile traffic so use extreme caution. Active logging areas have very little snow. The corners are starting to get a little bare.

The trails are still ridable 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!

With the additional snow we received at the beginning of the weekend we were able to get our groomers out and make the trails just barely ridable. There are still icy corners, standing puddles and bare spots. If we could get a couple more inches of snow we could get the trails in pretty good shape. The forecast is not to promising. It is snowing right now (Monday morning) but there is a rain and snow mix expected for Tuesday with temps in the 20s for the rest of this week.

With the rain and warm and sunny day Monday and Tuesday our trails are pretty well shot. The trails have many puddles, bare spots and are down to the base. Out in the woods we still have a little snow. One thing on the bright side we are expecting a big snowstorm late Thursday with colder weather. It could be 6-9 inches with the heaviest band to be up to 12 inches. They aren’t quite sure were the heaviest band is going to hit yet but it could be right on our trails. If this happens we could be back out grooming and back in business for a while. Even with 6-9 inches we will be in good shape. Cross your fingers. We can always use more snow and cold weather!!!

Jim Hamilton President BJSC Boulder Junction Chamber of Commerce <boulderjct@boulderjct.org> - Tuesday, December 27, 2016 at 10:01:39 (PST) I hope everyone had a nice Christmas, I just got back from visiting kids and grandkids. I wish I had better news for the trail report, but it is what it is, and that is not good. We had about an inch of freezing rain or slush last night and it is 36 degrees right now. The trails look ok as we speak but the traffic is already beginning to pick up and they won't last long with no snow. The groomers will not be able to do anything with what is on the ground now so if you can wait until we get more snow I think that would be your best move, that's what I'm telling my family. Colder temps are predicted for tomorrow, but not alot of snow in the immediate future. If you are going to ride this week, don't expect too much as the trails will not be in very good shape. Sorry.

Boulder Junction Chamber of Commerce <boulderjct@boulderjct.org> - Monday, December 26, 2016 at 09:30:38 (PST) The trails continue to be in fair condition, and the forecast for today is for a couple of inches of fresh snow. The down side is that they are predicting 40s for Sunday and Monday with rain and sleet, lets hope they're wrong. We won't be doing any grooming until Monday , if we get snow, as we have family obligations too. Have a nice Christmas, and hope for snow. My report on Monday may be later in the day , as we will be traveling in the morning. Lou Milewski, Trail Boss, Boulder Junction Snowmobile Club Boulder Junction Chamber of Commerce <boulderjct@boulderjct.org> - Friday, December 23, 2016 at 07:23:03 (PST) The warm temps yesterday didn't do much to help the trails. They are still in fair shape but my worry is that with no major snow in the forecast, and warmer temps through the weekend, they will be in poor shape for the busy Christmas week. A couple of inches is predicted for today; maybe that will help. I'll keep you posted. Lou Milewski Trail Boss, Boulder Junction Snowmobile Club Boulder Junction Chamber of Commerce <boulderjct@boulderjct.org> - Wednesday, December 21, 2016 at 07:26:32 (PST) Boulder Junction area trails are in pretty good shape.

It looks like the Christmas week should be a good one if we get this storm, much better forecast than last years. I'll keep you posted with current conditions. Lou Milewski Trail Boss Boulder Junction Snowmobile Club Boulder Junction Chamber of Commerce <boulderjct@boulderjct.org> - Friday, December 16, 2016 at 08:14:02 (PST) TRAILS ARE OPEN AS OF NOON TODAY!!! Welcome back to another "Snowmobile Season"!!!...We are having very cold temps and we are expecting more snow on Friday into Saturday so trail conditions should continue to improve. Ice thickness varies greatly on area lakes with some lakes still having open water. DO NOT CROSS ANY LAKES UNLESS THE TRAIL ACROSS THE LAKE IS CLEARLY MARKED. Boulder Junction Chamber of Commerce <boulderjct@boulderjct.org> - Thursday, December 15, 2016 at 10:14:56 (PST) I'm happy to be reporting that the trails will open Thursday at noon. We have been out panning the last several days and the trails overall are in pretty good shape. Don't expect them to be perfect, as we have only had limited snow to work with but they are smooth. Watch out for weeds that are still poking up through the snow, it will take a few days of riding to knock them down. Trail 2West was logged this fall and a section of it is privately owned, that section is very rough and rutted, so use caution between Whitney Lake road and just north of K when on trail 2. Enjoy the new season, I will be reporting on trail conditions on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays through the season. Ride safe.

The temperatures are going up and the trail conditions will be going down. Warm, 40 degree temps, are expected all week so the trails will deteriorate quickly especially close to town so I don't expect they will be very good by weeks end. We will continue to groom, if the conditions allow, and I will continue to make my reports until the trails are gone.

Boulder Junction Chamber <boulderjct@boulderjct.org> - Monday, February 23, 2015 at 09:05:49 (PST) After a bitter cold week the temperatures are warming a bit. The trails are in good shape overall but watch for some rough spots especially on Nixon Lake Road where they are logging. Some light snow is expected for today so that should help us keep the trails in good condition. As always ride safe.

Boulder Junction Chamber of Commerce <boulderjct@boulderjct.org> - Wednesday, February 18, 2015 at 08:05:35 (PST) After a very cold weekend the trails are in pretty good condition. I think the bitter cold kept a lot of riders off the trails so they held up pretty well. The corners are very bare and icy but the straight areas are in good shape. Just a reminder, they are logging near Nixon Lake Road and we have been unable to groom that trail because of the logging operations, so it is bare and bumpy in spots. Cold weather is supposed to stick around until Friday but a warming trend should make for a nice weekend. Ride safe!

I spoke with some riders yesterday and they were pleased with the trails. This should be a busy weekend, Presidents Day, some have Monday off. We will be out nightly grooming trying to keep them smooth. As always, remember to ride early in the day for the smoothest trails, by early afternoon they get pretty beat up with all the traffic. The corners are pretty bare and icy, we haven't had any measurable snow in some time. Hope to see you at our fundraiser breakfast Sunday at Headwaters Restaurant from 8am until noon. Think Snow!

The trails continue to be in pretty good condition, some riders tell me they are great others complain about the corners, I guess it depends on your perspective. We need snow to get them back in great shape, the corners are icy and bare so slow down and use caution. We will continue to do the best we can with the snow we have but be aware that there are some rough spots throughout the system.

Watch for a few icy corners but overall they are very good. I had several e-mails on our web site asking if I could post which trails were groomed. We groom every trail every night, unless we have an unforeseen problem. As I have stated often in my reports ride early in the day, especially on the busy three day weekends, because with the high volume of riders the trails really get bumpy by late afternoon. We groom at night for several reasons, safety being the foremost one. Think Snow! Lou, Trail Boss Visit the Boulder Junction Snowmobile Club on-line at boulderjunctionsc.org.

As an old fire captain of mine told me years ago "Safety doesn't begin with S it begins with YOU". The trail leaving town to the south and east, 15s-8e has been re-routed straight east of town, we no longer go behind the Lions Pavilion. It is well marked and should not be a problem.

After a very busy week the snow held up pretty well and from most accounts the trails were good especially in the morning and early afternoon. Thanks for spending your time in our area, I hope it was enjoyable for all. This week should let us catch our breath a bit as it normally slows down after the holidays. We will still be out grooming nightly so if you have the time come up and ride, but bring your cold weather gear, as temps are supposed to remain below zero much of the week.

We have had a very busy week so far and it looks like it will remain so through the weekend. Some spots are getting icy, we could use more snow to fill in the corners, but overall the trails remain in good condition. As always the trails will be better early in the day, so for the smoothest ride, ride early. We will be out every night doing the best we can to make them smooth and safe. I want to apologize for the trail conditions on Monday, we had both groomers out of service that night and no trails got groomed. Hopefully that won't happen again. Thanks for your patience.
