44 YEARS OF SERVICE TO NORTHERN OCONTO COUNTY 1968-2012
TRAIL REPORT
Saturday morning Feb 4th No change...but the air temperature is now dipping below freezing at night. Generally speaking trails are still rideable but deteriorating. The woods trails are "snirty" and the ungroomed roads are still OK. The Nicolet Trail (grade) is OK thru town but north of the Valley Inn it is breaking thru to the gravel. We have suspended gooming operations as we will do more harm than good with the limited snow cover. Look for updates every day or two and pray for cold and snow!!!
Note: These trail reports are done thru groomer driver and club member input. They are not a guarantee but we try our best to be realistic. As always you ride at your own risk!!

All trail reports are provided by area clubs and by our club members. Red Arrow cannot be responsible for actual trail conditions at any given place or time. Riders are expected to ride responsibly and look for hazards. You ride our trails at your own risk!!
