Weather Update

Well, we still have not received any recent accumulation of snow, but we are not giving up hope! We are supposed to receive flurries and some snow showers throughout the weekend, but accumulation, if any, will be very little.

Snowmobile trails are fair to good condition. We do have little snow on the trails, and some of the corners are icy. However, the Bo-Boen Snowmobile Club continues to groom the trails every night, and they do a great job! Snowmobilers are taking advantage of the snow, and still going out, especially onto the lakes.

Cross country skiing conditions are in good to excellent condition, and with the temperatures rising above 0 degrees, more enthusiasts are getting out there! The wind is a bit cold, so dress appropriately. For your feet while cross country skiing, invest in some SmartWool socks. These socks are excellent for any temperature, have good wicking ability, and are incredibly soft and comfortable!

Snowshoeing conditions are fair to poor in the woods. They are not bad in open fields or spaces. We simply need a big snowstorm! If you are an avid snowshoer, take a look into the Snowshoe Blaze, coming up on March 3 here in St. Germain. It includes demonstrations, and a moonlight snowshoe trek to top it off!

Think snow!
