I'd buy Krupp's long before the Parkview. Year round business, can't beat having a resort on a lake.

Exactly why I made it a rule years ago not to ride on weekends. I'm assuming none of these guys were drinking alcohol before getting back on their sleds! Pictures like these give non-snowmobilers more ammunition to portray us as a bunch of crazy drunks. Looking at all the fresh snow, you would think everyone would be out enjoying the great conditions instead of sitting in a bar.

What an ignorant judgemental statement!! Please don't ride durning the week either! Nobody wants to be around you

Intended or not those first 2 pics look like B&W throwbacks yet we see new iron ....LOVE IT!

Not intended, just lifted them off the facebook post of the Mosquito. It was snowing so hard with so little light that's the way they turned out I'm guessing.

Sorry, answered before I saw your second post.

Funny, that would be a State, not a town:) How about a general area like "near Houghton, or Copper Harbor, Porcupine.....etc."
That looks like some serious fun!

Indy-500, my sleuthing skills figured it out, no need to respond, your secret (well, at least the general area where you were) is safe!

The Skeeter was a little less crowed on Saturday at 3:00 when we got there...still took 2 hours for a couple of orders of curds and even then we didn't get them. Cancelled the order and left. Oh well.

Crazy the number of trucks and trailers coming and going and looking for spots!

Dude calm down! It was single digits, blower pow, super winds, easily the coldest day riding I've had in a long time. I stood inside the skeet to warm up for an hour, didn't see one stumbling guy in sight.

I go up to UP with my brother a few times a year, and we NEVER drink when on the sleds...ever. When we get back to the hotel, we do go out to the local bars. And when we do that...we walk to the bars!

...I had a bacon cheeseburger and two bud lights that Saturday at the bug bar...God bless America!
