we are 'the leading edge' HSO Creators Rick Posted February 28, 2019 we are 'the leading edge' HSO Creators Share Posted February 28, 2019 The pattern of heavy snowfall continued over much of the state this week, with some areas of northern and central Wisconsin receiving repeated snowfalls off up to a foot. The south hasn't fared as well, with most of the precipitation that fell last weekend in the form of rain. That was followed by freezing temperatures that left of thick crust of ice on top of what snow remains. A mid-week ice storm also coated central Wisconsin with a thick layer of ice.The rain closed most snowmobile trails in the southern most tier of counties but trails through central and northern Wisconsin remain open and in good to excellent condition, with some reporting best conditions of the winter so far on the Wisconsin Department of Tourism's Snow Conditions Report (exit DNR). Cross country ski trail conditions are also good to excellent through much of central and northern Wisconsin, including the best conditions of the year at the five Door County state parks. Cross-country ski trails are in good to excellent condition in Door County's five state parks, including these at Potawatomi.Photo credit: DNRWith the recent heavy snow and high winds fishing pressure has varied from heavy to non-existent. Truck and ATV travel on the ice has been difficult away from the plowed roads on the ice with lots of stuck vehicles being reported. Lots of anglers spent last week trying to get their permanent shacks off the ice if possible. Anglers are reminded that permanent ice shacks must be off the ice by March 3 south of Highway 64 and March 17 north of 64. . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
