❄️ Trail Report as of 2.12.2025 ❄️

Mercer Sno-Goers: as of 2.10.2025
This winter seems to be turning around, over the last few days we have received up to 7 inches of fresh snow which helped our trails out tremendously. All groomers have been out non stop getting the trails in good shape for Presidents weekend. You’ll find conditions ranging from fair to good to great in areas. The further in the woods you go, the better it gets. Please make sure to stop by and patronize our business sponsors and tell them we sent you!

MECCA Trails: as of 2.9.2025
Mercer got 3” of snow past 12 hours. Grooming teams were out Saturday evening resetting tracks, packing and combing the skate lane. Conditions excellent!

Winman Trails: as of 2.12.2025
SKI: Skate deck was last groomed on Monday morning. Trails remain in excellent condition and are skiing well in the afternoon after temperatures rise a bit.

Event Reminder: Tonight we are organizing a group ski (all skill levels) at 3pm. Afterwards, we will have the Bar and Apparel Shop open from 4-7pm with specials on select wine by the glass ranging from $4-6 - CLICK HERE for details.

FAT BIKE: Trails were all groomed early Sunday morning after about 3 inches of new snow. Trails had a ton of traffic on Sunday and are riding excellent right now after a day to setup and all the tire traffic from yesterday. Get out and enjoy this week if you can.

SNOWSHOE: Snowshoe trails are open and are in great shape right now. Snowshoes are required. Remember, we offer free to borrow snowshoe in the chalet if you need.

SLEDDING: Sledding hill is open. There are a couple of sled available to borrow but please bring your own if possible. Tubes are not recommended as they gain too much speed, but traditional plastic sleds of all varieties are a great choice.

No one wants to see trails open and snowmobiling up and running more than us, but we’ve seen some big trailers moving in to town tonight. This is normally a big weekend for sleds to be out and about, but we still do not have open trails or enough snow at this time for them to open. So for those that do get out and about on sleds, which isn’t recommended at this time, please be mindful that much of our trail systems go through PRIVATE PROPERTY. Don’t ruin it for everyone else, please by messing that up… BE RESPECTFUL. Most lakes aren’t even marked yet, so use extreme caution if you’re a soul that won’t listen to anyone telling you not to go out yet.
