Red Arrow Trail Reports
Wednesday January 23, 2019
It’s 16° in beautiful downtown Townsend this snowy morning. Unfortunately most of the snow appears to have fallen south of here. As of now with snow still falling, we have received 1 1/2″-2″ of new snow. Far from what the forecast was just a day ago😥. Next time when you do your Snow Dance, please indicate to Mother Nature to concentrate on the Townsend area please!! Right now the trails east of Hwy 32 are in GOOD TO VERY GOOD CONDITION. The Nicolet State Trail ( The Grade ) is very icy in spots so be careful! I would say that it is in GOOD TO VERY CONDITION. The trails west of town toward Hwy 64& T are in GOOD TO VERY GOOD CONDITION on the level trails. In the hills it is still FAIR TO POOR. We still need more snow there for covering the rocks.
The new snow, though minimal certainly will help the trails. The groomers will be out to ensure you the best trails to ride in the area.
This Saturday the 26th, please stop by the Waubee Lake Lodge and support our sister Club to the south, THE PAUL BUNYAN RIDERS SNOW FUN DAY. Fisheree from 7-4, and Meat raffles start at 1. Poker Run winners at 7. Cash Raffle winners at 8. A great time will be had by all😀!!!
While enjoying our trails please remember to support our Booster Member Sponsors. Meet as strangers and leave as friends!!!

It’s 18° in beautiful downtown Townsend this morning. Put on your SNOW DANCING SHOES TODAY, the weather man this morning has guessed that we will end up with 6.4″ of snow from this storm. We received about a 1/2″ of snow overnight. Let’s hope he is wrong on the light side!! Right now the trails east of Hwy 32 are in GOOD TO VERY GOOD CONDITION. The Nicolet State Trail ( The Grade ) is very icy in spots so be careful! I would say that it is in GOOD TO VERY CONDITION. The trails west of town toward Hwy 64& T are in GOOD TO VERY GOOD CONDITION on the level trails. In the hills it is still FAIR TO POOR. We still need more snow there for covering the rocks. The trails are starting to show wear with 2-6 inches of new snow in the forecast for today, maybe things will change for the better as long as there is material to work with, we will continue to groom. Pray for snow!!
We continue to assure that you will be riding the smoothest trails in the area 😁!
Remember that it is still early season riding conditions, with a lot of ice in some of the corners, and at many stop signs!

A big THANK YOU, goes out to Tom and Gloria Mulroy for handling our Bonfire in the woods Saturday!!! Great job. Also thanks go out to Tim Bethke for donating the wood for the fire and hauling the wood and the outhouse to the event. A great time was had by all in attendance, except for two of our visitors🤔! The one driving the Sled that burned 200 yards from the event, and the one who owned the sled he nicely let his son- in- law borrow!!!! Visit our FACEBOOK page for pictures of the blaze. Thankfully no one was injured.

Red Arrow and Paul Bunyan Trails will open this morning at 8:00AM.
I hope this news doesn’t upset anyone! We groomed just shy of 13 hours yesterday to make the trails as good as can be expected. But don’t expect to much because they are POOR AT BEST, with a lot of truck ruts in many areas and lot’s of ice on the grade at select spots and on the trails as well. There is fun out there to be had but be careful so no one gets hurt. I don’t know if Forest County is open, so your guess is as good as mine. The Chute Pond area was below the snow line this time I have been told?
So hopefully some of you can get in some Holiday riding and have a good time with friends and family. While riding in our area, please remember to support our Booster Member Sponsors. They will be more than pleased to have you as a guest!!
See Ya on the trail,
