 La Crosse County Trails are CLOSED!                  

La Crosse County Snowmobile Trail Report
Thursday, Feb.25


The La Crosse County Snowmobile Trails will be closed Sat. morning Feb. 27. Above freezing temperatures, heavy weekend traffic and lack of snow have left several bare spots throughout the county. Please respect the rights of property owners and stay off closed trails.

Watching the weather on Sunday night, Feb. 28th the forecasted temps will possibly end the trails for the season.  We would like to thank everyone who helped make the trails as good as they can be, this includes the landowners, sponsors, and club members who sign the trails, attain the landowners permission, groomed the trails, and regularly check trails for hazards,  after March is over, they will be the ones removing the snowmobile signs. 
            THANK YOU

If you enjoyed the trails this winter and do not currently belong to a club consider joining one of La Crosse County's six clubs.  Membership is the best way to stay informed.

Thank you. for sending a map. I met five guys on sleds just North of La Crosse over the weekend. They took me and my father on the trails through your county and showed us the best weekend of riding I have ever had. They were great and your trails were even better. They represented the fine state of Wisconsin well...and they didn't even hold the whole Farve thing against us...anyways your trails rock.  Troy from MN

                                     

Good Morning, Just wanted to let you know that the riding on Saturday(2/6/10) was awesome, the trails were the best so far this year. A huge thank you to all the groomers, members and anyone else who has a hand in keeping the trails in the great shape they are in. Sledding is a huge part of our winter entertainment, and we greatly appreciate all the work that goes into making it a success for us. Thanks again and keep up the great work
Also thanks to all the land owners for making it possible, couldn't be done without you.
Have a Great Day!!
Happy Sledding!
A satisfied customer!   

                                                                                    

Hello,
I would like to thank all of your efforts this year again for the excellent trail system.  I am in the military living in West Salem and work at Fort McCoy and on many occasions I ride the trail system to work.  I have logged on around 800 miles this year and the trails have held up very well.  The route from four corners to Bangor was a great ride along with St Joe’s ridge our past Barre Mills is one of my favorites as well.  I would like to make a donation, so please give me the address so I can get it in the mail.  Again, great year and thanks for all you do.  2000 Polaris Indy 500 (488 fuji) Bullet proof.

   Good morning.
 I just wanted to say GREAT job grooming the trails with the snow cover we have. I was afraid the warm weather has taken a toll, and was I wrong. I rode the bike trail from 2 Brothers to Bangor , then from Bangor to Mindoro last night, and everything was freshly groomed and in Excellent condition!!! Even the woods were flat, snow covered and very few if any bare spots. Just wanted to say thanks for an awesome ride last night. Keep up the great work!!!!
S.M.

We appreciate any and all comments. Please send them in!

 

NEW TRAIL SPUR !

The Onalaska Sno-Drifters have been hard at work adding some spurs to the Great River trail in Onalaska to access The Shadow Run Lodge and the Blue Moon restaurant.  The second spur will take you to the Kwik Trip, Seven Bridges Restaurant and the Lake  Motel.  To my knowledge, these are the only motels with trail access in all of La Crosse County.  Please remember that Onalaska still has a curfew, snowmobiles are not allowed in the city after 10:30 PM, access to these businesses are included under the curfew.
