"Is the trail plowed during the winter?  Does anyone know what its current
condition is?  Specifically between Seminal and Southtown?"
---------------------------------------

 

Ken,

I do not know the current condition of the trail.

The last I'd heard, that portion of the Cap City State trail outside the city
of Madison (Madison plows the sections within the city) was being plowed at
no charge by the owner of a bonded plowing service who routinely receives
contracts from the county (and wants to give something back in exchange for
all the benefits he as a bicyclist gets from the Cap City State Trail).

 

However, because it's done on a volunteer basis (albeit by a licensed, bonded
professional), there is no guarantee of when (or even if) it is plowed after
each snowstorm. In past years he's estimated that he's done it three or four
times a winter.

 

I'm sure there are many threads from past years concerning this relationship
if you are interested in more of the history.
