Before You
Head Outside.

Make the most of the forecast, the trail reports, and a friendly conversation with our team.

Is the weather updated automatically?

Yes. When available, the weather panel loads the latest National Weather Service observation from Waupaca Municipal Airport and checks for updates while this page is open. The observation time is shown, and you can use Refresh to check again. If an update is unavailable, the panel says so.

Does the weather panel mean a river or trail is open?

No. Weather and recreation conditions are different. For our kayak adventures, call the shop about recent river conditions and trip availability. For trail access, closures, and grooming, check the park or trail club’s latest update.

Where can I find snow and grooming reports?

During winter reporting, look in Fresh Tracks for our manually entered updates on Hartman Creek, Standing Rocks, and Iola Winter Sports Club. Check the observation date and the specific trail you plan to use. Skiing, snowshoeing, and fat-tire biking may use different trails and have different access requirements.

Can you help us choose an outing?

Absolutely. Call 715-258-0775 and tell us what you have in mind, your experience, and when you’ll be visiting. We’ll help you explore the options and choose suitable equipment.
