Hundreds of miles of snowmobile trails connect towns and cities all across northern Wisconsin.
But for a long a time, a snowmobile club in Taylor County felt like there was a critical piece missing.
“The local snowmobile club here called the We Whittlesey Whizzers had a vision in looking in looking at the Taylor County snowmobile system,” said Ann Dassow, acting district ranger for the Medford-Park Falls Ranger District of the Chequamegon Nicolet National Forest.
For more than 30 years, members of the club worked with the National Forest to get access to the land to build the trail.
“Through a lot of persistence and a lot of work, we determined a route and they started clearing it and establishing it this year,” said Dassow.

Do You Know This Snowmobiler?
New York State Forest Rangers and Police in the town of Inlet are trying to locate a snowmobiler whom they say may have assaulted a Forest Ranger over the weekend.
Authorities say the rider was stopped on Saturday, January 16, on Uncas Road near the Bug Lake trail, according to the Cranberry Lake Mountaineers Snowmobile Club Facebook page.
The posting does not elaborate on the incident, other than to say there a some type of struggle between the Ranger and the rider, before the rider then took off.
They say the rider was a white male in his late teens or early twenties, and was wearing a gray sweatshirt, according to the posting. Also, he was riding this Ski-Doo, pictured above, with a unique mirror wrap on the sled with a multi-colored pink tint.
