Conditions - 3/24/2008

Good Morning Everyone.

It was a long and quiet Easter Weekend in the north woods. While there still is snowmobiling going on the interest and number have declined. The trails in our area are in fair spring riding condition. There still remains good trails in the wooded areas, and those that were out report them at good+, however, the sun exposed trails continue to decline. Maybe it's the long winter, or the fact there has been snow all over WI., but the one sure thing is, the interest level is almost non-existent. The trails will remain open officially until the 1st of April. For those wondering, I put the sleds on the trailer yesterday..oh well.
Our other sports continue to have better interest as well as good to very good conditions. Downhill skiing continues to find good slopes in the UP. Unfortunately, for the ski areas, the crowds are light, however if you don't like lift lines, there is no time like the present.(See our websites links)
Our forecasts are calling for 1-3 tonight of the "spring" wet snow..possibly mixed. Beyond that, mid 30's and below freezing nights. After this next weekend, we should start seeing the 40's..hopefully. Except for more spring skiing weekends, it's probably time for the next season.

As Always..Drive and Ride and Ski Safely.
