Due to rapidly deteriorating trail conditions, the entire Forest County State funded snowmobile trail system is hereby closed, today, March 12, 2012 effective immediately.
All snow condition phone lines and county websites have been changed today to reflect the immediately trail closure. The public will be notified on Wednesday and Friday via publication of the Forest Republican and Pioneer Express newspapers respectively. If you have to close gates on your property, I would ask if you could try to wait until Wednesday, March 14, 2012 until there is public notice of the trail closure.
All Forest County State funded ATV trails also close today, effectively immediately. This includes the Forest County ATV Trail, Wolf River State Trail and the Nicolet State Trail. ATV trails will reopen on May 1, 2012.
The Forest County Snowmobile/ATV Trail Ordinance prohibits snowmobiles, ATV and motor vehicles from operating on the above trails. Anyone operating on the above trails on public or private land will be prosecuted.
