Snowmobile Information:
It’s 57 degrees and foggy this morning. I washed and waxed my sled trailer yesterday. Acorns have been dropping like crazy the last two weeks. Northern Hornshoe Club has been brushing the overgrown trail along highway 70 from highway D to Arnold Stock on the north side of 70, then we will also be opening highway 70 from D to just west of the Dam Bar. My other new club, Minoqua Forest Riders, stopped grooming it due to logistics. Northern Hornshoes purchased a Kubota and drag to work this area, since a lot of locals asked for the trail to open. See the new machine at www.hornshoe.org. We have a fundraiser going to pay for Hornshoe II, please consider donating, or buying a raffle ticket. We will have a booth, and the new machine, at Beef-O-Rama. We are also doing a MEAT raffle this fall! (With lots of BACON!!!) We could  use volunteers to help. Contrary to popular belief from non-club member snowmobilers, we don’t get funding for a lot of what we do. We do fundraisers, and volunteer a pile of hours. President Keith does an amazing job as Radar O’Reily. He works with the state, the county, our tribe, the forest service, chamber of commerce, tourism, MEAT vendors, Santa, and the Easter Bunny, to make a lot happen. As a club member, you also receive the AWSC(Association of Wisconsin Snowmobile Clubs) magazine. A LOT of stuff goes on in the state to keep this sport alive and kicking. It’s a good read. Wow, all this meat talk, I need to make breakfast. Hah! Get those boats put away – my wife just texted ” Big snow event in 90 days.” Whooo Hoooo! Mark
Snowmobiling Information
Boozhoo, ( Hell-o and Welcome in Ojibwe)
QUALITY is the word we use to describe the great snowmobiling trails in Lac du Flambeau Wisconsin. Thanks to all our hardworking snowmobile club members, the Northern Hornshoe Trails Club, our snowmobiling trails have been recognized as some of the best in the state of Wisconsin. We are known for our good will, friendliness, and our culture and history.
Lac du Flambeau Wisconsin is well known for scenic snowmobiling trail vistas and dense woods combine with the awesome vastness of the Powell Marsh Wildlife area and reserve that you cross, makes this one of the most enjoyable rides you will have all season. After a fun ride on the snowmobile trails visit one of our many restaurants, retail stores or casino.
The Lac du Flambeau Wisconsin snowmobile trails are also centrally located so that staying here makes it possible for you to go south to the Minocqua, St. Germain and Eagle River areas, or go north to the “snow belt areas” of northern Vilas County, and on to the UP of Michigan. They are all a short ride away.
We look forward to your visit to our beautiful area. PLEASE ride safe!
