     *  125+ active members and families.

     *  15+ members spend about 400 hours/year grooming trails.

     *  300+ hours are spent brushing, clearing and signing trails.

​

Rib Riders trails are groomed with two Sur-Trac groomers as well as a Prinoth Husky groomer that are housed in a new building located behind Custom Meats in Marathon.  It takes approximately 30 hours using all three groomers to groom the 50 mile trail system, crossing over 85 private land parcels as well as school and county forest land.  The trails system runs from Highway 29 to about three miles north of Mosinee, and from Nine Mile Recreation Area to the Edgar area.
