Latest Update on CAMBA’s Big Woods and Endless Trails

Breaking News, Trail ConditionsBy Dave SchlabowskeMay 10, 2021

Cowboy and Seeley Dave finally had a chance to get out and record a little trail conditions report. After the start of the Hungry Bear, they headed over to the Camp 38 Trailhead to dip into 38 Special and the Gravity Cavity. The small parking lot at the trailhead was already full, with overflow out…

Hungry Bear Weekend Redux

Breaking News, Latest Dirt, Trail ConditionsBy Dave SchlabowskeMay 10, 2021

Over the last weekend, I attended my first in-person race with the happy return of the Hungry Bear 100. Racers and riders had picture-perfect weather with sun, low winds and temperatures in the 60s by the afternoon. Last year’s Hungry Bear was canceled due to the pandemic. And while this year’s race did not include…

Breaking News, Trail ConditionsBy Dave SchlabowskeApril 23, 2021

Thanks to the early warm-up this spring, the Sawyer County Forestry Department was able to give CAMBA the OK to open our trails early. As of today, all CAMBA trails from Mt. Ashwabay up in Bayfield, down to Hatchery Creek and the Hospital Gateway trails are now open. So air up your tires, check your…

Spring in CAMBA Country Means Ephemerals and MTB Trails Opening

Breaking News, Latest Dirt, Trail ConditionsBy Dave SchlabowskeApril 16, 2021

I had my first meal seasoned with foraged wild Ramps (Allium Tricoccum, sometimes called wild leeks or spring onions), so I know spring is firmly ensconced and winter is far distant in the seasonal rearview mirror. I typically find Ramps when I am riding trails or gravel. As readers may have guessed by my recent…

Enjoying Winter’s Last Gasp on Gravel

Breaking News, WinterBy Dave SchlabowskeMarch 29, 2021

While the CAMBA trails are closed, I have been getting out for an hour or two most days to grind some gravel. This last weekend, winter decorated the forest with an inch of fresh fluff. It flocked the trees in a fresh coating of white and stuck on the frozen gravel roads until Sunday afternoon…

CAMBA Trails Could Open Sooner Than Later

Breaking News, Trail Conditions, WinterBy Dave SchlabowskeMarch 29, 2021

As I mentioned in my last news post here, all CAMBA groomed winter trails and warm weather MTB trails are closed. By Sawyer County ordinance, our trails, as well as ATV and snowmobile trails, must be closed from April 1st to May 15th. While that is the written rule, in practice the trails typically open…

CAMBA Trails Closed, CAMBA Gravel Open!

Breaking News, Latest Dirt, Trail ConditionsBy Dave SchlabowskeMarch 19, 2021

Spring cuts like a double-bit axe when it arrives in CAMBA Country. On the one hand, it brings the promise of warmth, ephemeral wild flowers and verdant forests. But it also signals the demise of groomed fat bike trails more than a month before we can ride the dirt mountain bike trails because they are…

End of Season Fat Biking in CAMBA Country

Breaking News, Trail Conditions, WinterBy Dave SchlabowskeMarch 8, 2021

Daytime high temperatures are forecast to near 60 degrees tomorrow in CAMBA Country, before they taper down to a more normal upper 30s this weekend. We also have a 70% chance of rain in Wednesday’s forecast. The combination of warm weather and rain does not bode well for our groomed winter trail system. Seeley Dave…
