Wild Rivers State Trail Update:

Railroad operations staff have assured us that there will be a detour around the construction project that is currently ongoing, adjacent to the Wild River Trail, between Spooner and Trego. This re-route will be in the vicinity of Dilly Lake & Schleife Roads. Trail traffic might be routed across Highway 53 and connecting into the west side of Trego at the Mobil Station. More information will be available later this week.  

Detour signs will be in place for the Friday a.m. May 22 ATV trail opener. If the construction project is delayed, Washburn County has secured a temporary road route connection as a backup plan.
