The Blue Hills Trail was established in 1987 by a group of local x-country skiers. Originally incorporated as the Rusk County Trail Association, the organization reincorporated as the Blue Hills Trail Association (BHTA) in the fall of 2006 to reflect the increasingly regional nature of the operation and to facilitate the attainment of 501c3 status.
The group remains dependent on annual membership dues, donations, and the cooperation of the Rusk County Forestry Department for its continued existence. New members, suggestions and financial support are all greatly appreciated. Thanks to all the indivduals and businesses that support the Blue Hills Trail System year round.
Trail Conditions: January 27 - firm, fast, packed powder skating thanks to extensive grooming yesterday. There now is about 12 km of solid classic track on the Eastside (fast & a bit glazed after Thursday's mild temps). 90% of the trails have good to excellent skating. Rare dirt spots visible. A few of the back trails were not groomed Jan. 26, we're allowing the snow to settle, bond & cover dirt spots on those trails: CLICK THIS LINK FOR DETAILS.
Grooming Update: Jan. 26 - groomed almost the entire trail system including much more track on Eastside, & resetting track on near loop of Westside.
Snowfall: 1.5 inches Wednesday, Jan. 25. Annual totals - click here.
