About the Mercer Area Sno-Goers
The Mercer Area Sno-Goers is a volunteer snowmobile club located in Iron County, Wisconsin which is widely known to host the best snowmobile trails in the state. Contributing to that statement we receive over 200 inches of yearly snowfall accompanied by lake effect snow and is further more reason Iron County is a premier destination for snowmobile enthusiasts across the United States.
Tree covered trails, waterfalls, and the Turtle Flambeau Flowage are just a few examples of what our trail system has to offer. As remote and deep in the Northwoods you may travel, you’ll never be too far from a one of a kind establishment to meet your needs.
Being established in 1967 makes it one of the first organized clubs at its time. We have over 150 miles of maintained and groomed trails in the southern part of Iron County. Our club membership exceeds 900 members with 100 commercial sponsorships. We were awarded Club of the Year by the Association of Wisconsin Snowmobile Clubs (AWSC) in 2022, American Council of Snowmobile Clubs (ACSA), and International Club of the year (ISHOF) in 2023, Inducted into the International Snowmobile Hall of Fame in 2023, and have been designated a Snowmobile Friendly County since 2019.
Our mission statement is making the best trails better, from being involved in local politics, widening trails, improving signage, to increasing membership, our goal remains the same; giving our visitors a once in a lifetime experience when enjoying our trail system.

Closed = Impassable, trees & Brush or trails leading to lakes.
Trails are overall in Good-Great condition. We still are unable to groom across numerous swamps so they could be bumpy.
Our crew is still working on trails 12 and 19 this week. These trails are especially difficult as they are mostly swamp and the trees and brush from the storm that have fallen have made things incredibly difficult to navigate.
The Turtle Flambeau Flowage and Lake of the Falls have been fully marked, please ride next to the stakes and be careful. Conditions can change rapidly.
After this holiday traffic we are getting the trails back in shape, we have been successful in getting groomers across some of our swamps and the trail report reflects that.
