Washburn County, WI - Current Trail Conditions

Up-to-date trail conditions for Washburn County including ATV, Snowmobiling, skiing, biking & more. The team at Washburn County Tourism Association update trail conditions from local reports multiple times a week to provide you the best possible information. Trails maps & other information can be found on trail listings online. See you on the trail!

Snowmobile Trails: 

Trail clearing efforts are still underway by county staff and volunteer clubs after the end of November heavy snowfall. The snow storm events resulted in approximately 10+ inches of snow across Washburn County. Unfortunately, these storms included heavy rain and mixed precipitation that resulted in extensive tree damage and impassible trail networks. After clearing efforts have been completed, the initial base pack down will begin in preparation for grooming efforts. However at this time, trails will continue to remain closed. Washburn County cannot open winter trail systems until trail sections are cleared. County staff request that enthusiasts do not complicate clearing efforts by attempting to use our trails before they are officially open.
