Oconto County Opens Trails Tuesday 1-16

Greetings and welcome!

It is cold. We had a high of 10 today. AT 11pm it is -9 heading for a low of about 10 below, along with some -20 wind chills. Tuesday (tomorrow) we are looking at a high of 3ºF and -15 to -25 wind chills. It does get a little better as the week progresses, and the weekend looks to be in the mid-teens to low 20s.

We really really need this cold weather to freeze up the lakes and everything else. I saw today that they cancelled the January radar runs on High Falls due to poor ice conditions. Everyone is hoping that the ice conditions turn around before all of the February events.

I have no idea how the trails look. I have been hibernating since Saturday night. The couple of ditch lines that I saw Saturday night looked good. The snow that we have sure isn’t melting.

The clubs are reporting “Early season conditions” and “Trails are thin but in good condition for the amount of snow we have had. Rocky areas will still be rough.”

I mostly wanted to update to let you know that Oconto Co is opening tomorrow.

Have a good one and thank you for visiting!
