Do they have a "Bomb Cyclone" warning? It's the only one I don't see on the weather maps today.

Thanks for doing what you guys and gals! We didn't get as much downfall over here in Vilas but if that wind comes in like the say it's supposed to we have a lot of white pines loaded and ready to snap I think. Vilas County opens Friday 8am , hopefully people will help clear if need be. I won't...

A good 6" plus in Manitowish Waters overnight. Plenty of snow up here but it was very light snow so it's going to blow around like crazy once the winds start up.

1" today so far in Manitowish Waters, supposed to get 5-8" overnight into Thursday.

It appears that the massive blizzard has been downgraded although there are winter storm watches out for most of the midwest. Here in Vilas we may get 3-7" which we welcome but the main story will be cold and wind. It is -16 degrees as I write this morning in MW, today is the day the Clubs and...

I didn't know him but enjoyed his posts. With cancer I'm sure he is in a better place now. RIP

Yes, it seems like the Massive Blizzard that was hyped might not be as bad as predicted. I think we'll be fine, it's getting to the point where the trails should be opened soon up here. Merry Christmas to you and your family as well WD.

We picked up about 4" of new snow overnight, light snow so 10 sleds down the trails blows it off but I think that we are heading for an opener soon in Vilas. Pic is from my yard, it's looking better day by day!

Good to hear you are finally kicking it to the curb OA!

FOX Chicago TV is saying 4-8" total but still 50 MPH winds so this is a lot less than they were originally predicting. We are traveling from MW to Naperville on Friday 23rd and coming back on the 26th. I'm not worried about driving, will take all the precautions but it's the other drivers that I...

I guess the story is that they came off the lake (Rest Lake is right by Pea Patch) I did see some tracks out there so it's possible, wouldn't catch me on the lake yet, with all that wet snow there is a lot of slush under the snow, I found that out just walking out on our lake in front of our...

Yes, All the bar owners and bartenders know the trails aren't open yet. Bad precedent being set.

Saw 3 snowmobiles parked across from the Pea Patch in Manitowish Waters Saturday around 5pm. Wish people would do their homework on when things open, it's not that difficult.

We used to ride out of Cisco Lake on the roads, lakes, and forest lanes down to PI. One trip down there we hit freezing rain over by Langford Lake and lightning/thunder snow, that was crazy as the lightning really lights up the landscape, made it to PI Pub, had a few, my sleds handlebars cracked...

The only counties that are showing open in WI are Iron & Marinette (partially open) and Ashland with good conditions. I would think more will open next week. Also looks like some snow coming Wednesday though Friday.

I should have clarified that most of the Northern Counties are like that, by northern I mean Minocqua and north.

Even if they opened today it would be early season riding at best and the base that has been established would be shredded and then everyone would complain that the trails are horrible. Hopefully we get the clipper to come through on Wednesday and give us another shot of snow and they open for...

Trails were groomed this afternoon in Manitowish, they looked pretty good, hopefully they move up that date a little bit. I would assume businesses want an opening as soon as possible but it looks like they will be open for the Holiday week which is always a good thing.

Manitowish Waters Trails as well as Vilas County remains closed. They are meeting on Wednesday 12/21 to determine the opening date. FYI See Below: Sno Skeeters: The Manitowish Waters and Vilas County Trails remain closed. The Vilas County Alliance of Snowmobile Clubs will meet Wednesday...
