So will I...
Does this mean Forest will be opening or just panning for maintenance. Brule trails interest me connect Vilas , Oneida and southern IR MI trails. I know 15 south from IR has been groomed once.
Is Forest all or nothing? I know northern Forest snow conditions are much different than south.
Whitedust... Sorry can't help you with Forest County...I get very confused over there as there are like 3 or 4 clubs that groom in that county, and I still haven't figured out who does what area.....btw.....Saturday is starting to look very interesting...one model is saying 6"-10" for the Northwoods...another is a bit more conservative saying "3 to 6"....either one would do wonders for the trails here...problem is..it's Saturday, the worst possible day to get snow, as the knuckleheads will be blowing it off the trails as it falls...oh well...beggers can't be choosers at this point...I'll just be thankful for whatever we get.....they've back off a bit on tonight's snow....saying 1 to 3 here...(some saying 2-4)...more to the north, less to the south.....the more the better, but we should be fine for the opening on Friday

Attackman --- ive been away from JD for awhile. You still bartending somewhere?
3 lakes grooms all of Brule Trails but they have to come thru Oneida and Forest or trails deadened but I believe Northern Brule house their groomer in Alvin or Nelma so it’s more about dead end trails in counties that aren’t open. Forest takes awhile to open but usually slightly behind the others this year is a who knows?

Also towing could be an issue...Forecasting gusts to 45+ from the west Thursday/Friday...
From the NWS...
Strong Winds & Blowing Snow: Very strong west winds will develop
on Thursday as the pressure gradient tightens up between the
departing low pressure and high pressure building into the Plains.
Very impressive wind profiles, with ~60 kts at 5,000 ft, ~90 kts
at 10,000 ft and up to ~115 kts at 15,000 ft. Only limited mixing
gets gusts of 35-45 mph to the surface. With a little better
mixing, could see some higher gusts during the "heating" of the
day. HREF showing 40-70% of 45+ mph winds across central and east
central WI Thursday afternoon. A Wind Advisory may be needed.

Don't think Forrest, Marinette counties have the "snow depth" of the others in middle of state. Think they got like 4-5inches instead of 8.
This NE part of the state always seems get less snow.
