New map will show snowmobile trails in national forest

RHINELANDER - Snowmobilers might navigate more easily through Wisconsin's national forest next year with the help of a new map. Workers with the Chequamegon Nicolet National Forest will put together a snowmobile map soon. They believe it will help complement existing club maps in the area.

Chequamegon Nicolet National Forest Spokesperson Hilary Markin says the map will show every snowmobile trail in the more than 1.5 million acre forest. Forest workers will start working with partners to start piecing the map together.

"You know, counties hold them, or other entities have their own, and some of the clubs have their own maps of the snowmobile trails that include the ones on the forest, but [now] the forest [service] will be producing their own snowmobile map," Markin said.
