Area Report:
- Flambeau Trail System (70 miles)~ OPEN May 1 through March 15 – The trail is getting a bit dusty as it hasn’t rained much since the snow melted. There is active logging on trail 118A-111 by Hwy 182, so please use caution as logging equipment is crossing the trail. A few culverts have some minor erosion issues, but all in all the trails are in good condition! Trail users are asked to ride with caution, and remember to keep an eye out for water over the trail as the beavers have been really active this spring. Please report any issues, especially water over the trail, to Brady Howe at bjhowe@fs.fed.us or 715-762-5104 and leave a detailed note on where the issue is.
