Patience and commitment are keeping things on track to build the last 2 miles of trail. Construction is now scheduled for summer of 2020.

We thank all those who have helped us reach the $430,000 mark, close to full funding for the last section. The Yard & Mile Club has grown to over 500 members! An updated Yard & Mile Club list will be posted later this fall. Click here for the  membership list as of last summer.

The second Don Gillum Memorial Bike and Hike on July 20 was a great success due to our participants, our volunteers, and our great sponsors! Over $6,000 was raised: $2,400 went to the Conover-Phelps Trail and to Relay for Life of the Northwoods, and $620 went to the chambers of commerce in Conover and Phelps.

SepTimber Ride was bigger than ever in 2020: 291 participants came out to enjoy a 26 mile trail ride or a 60k or 100k road ride, all leaving from Eagle River's Tribute Brewing Co. and passing a special rest stop at Three Lakes Winery.

Winners of the SepTimber Ride raffle  received a Specialized electric bike, a Wilderness Pungo 140 kayak and paddle, an overnight stay at Wild Eagle Lodge, or special growler and wine bottle bike carriers. Watch for details about SepTimber Ride VI, Sept. 12, 2020.

This 10-mile trail will connect Eagle River to St. Germain. In doing that it will connect the 55-mile Heart of Vilas Trail System to the 13-mile ThreeEagle Trail.

GHT is working on the project as a partner to the River Trail Commission made up of the municipalities of St Germain, Cloverland and Eagle River. Watch for new developments.
