Snow Depth and Groomed Trail Conditions
Taconite/David Dill State Trail - St Louis County
Trail conditions:
The entire trail is in fair condition and has been groomed from Ely to Hwy 73 in the last few days. Operators have been able to keep bumps and corners leveled off and cover bare spots with more snow, but please continue to watch for rocks and bare spots on the trail. We will be grooming the trail again before the weekend. We anticipate next week to be our last week of grooming on the Taconite. Please use caution when riding, travel at appropriate speeds, and stay to the right at all times. No Motorized Vehicles other than snowmobiles are allowed on State Trails or Grant-in-Aid snowmobile trails.
