The Wausau and Marathon County Parks, Recreation and Forestry Department has announced that, due to wet conditions from late snowfall and recent rain, the following trails and facilities will remain closed until further notice:

• Burma Forest ATV/UTV trails
• Nine Mile County Forest mountain bike and horse trails,
• Kronenwetter and Leather Camp County Forest horse trails,
• Big Eau Pleine County Park mountain bike and horse trails,
• Big Eau Pleine County Park disc golf course, and
• Sylvan Hill Park mountain bike trails

These trails and facilities typically open on May 1, but will remain closed until they are dry enough for public use. These closures are necessary to prevent trail and facility damage. Once conditions improve, the trails and facilities will reopen on a date yet to be determined.
