East side? The west side portion was affected by logging last season. It was a hit and miss schedule during the season. I'm not aware of the logging plans for this upcoming season. It's difficult to find the exact logging schedule. Trail 1 to Silver City is scheduled to be open as normal...

What the heck. Now, I know why there were so many cool sleds when we stopped for lunch on Thursday. Didn't know about the ride and it was a mystery seeing them all together.

To the bold. I know which club you mean. I sure hope they can get their game together. We base out of their grooming area. We're dang close to simply finding a new base area because of the nightmare riding we deal with over and over. Judging by traffic levels, I'd say a lot have already...

I wonder how many of those tickets he has issued? A few year back, I was riding with one other guy. I stopped at the sign and saw the pickup. No big deal. When we got to the highway, I checked to see if the buddy had caught up before crossing. He was waving to go, so I crossed. I saw the...

A lot of honest wisdom in that post. I'll add to the part about those useless stop signs. Too many with no traffic makes people numb to stopping. I know it's tempting as all get out after so many. As far as nabbing people. There is a stop sign outside Greenland along the highway on trail 3...

That is good advice. For that reason, try to use the drop point in town. We base out of Bergland with a .6 mile ride across the bay. It can get hairy even in that short distance sometimes. The lake issue may be a factor in your food choice. The west side trail 1 is down for logging so 13 is...

Year around grill action here too. My menu isn't nearly as nice. I just throw some hunks of meat on the grill about 300 times a year. I have the early version of the performer grill and refillable tank. I like the setup with easy lighting and wood flavor. The company has been pleasantly...

Yep. I've never seen one with nice paint. We seemed to always have a bunch laying around with worn holes and broken sections. They were tough. They were also heavy. I bet that sled had plenty of ski pressure.

We went to an event to honor veterans. I met this guy and heard some of his stories. Pretty incredible guy. He tells about the experience as if it just happened. It is hard to fathom how much these guys went through and sacrificed.

Oh man. That's a tough one. He was one of those people that just simply reminded you that life is simple and important. He did so much with so little fanfare. I always enjoyed meeting him and sharing a conversation. I have to admit that he left me in awe at times. Casual conversation about...

I'm with @katden4 , on the slower ground speed. It's worth verifying that your blade speed vs ground is enough before going nuts on mechanical diagnosis. One thing I've noticed with many newer mowers is the slower blade speed. I'm not sure if Deere went that route? Their older stuff had those...

Pretty cool. Those programs aren't even that expensive. Makes the ol crop circles look like rookie stuff. Buddies kid did a map program on about twenty acres using fall tillage equipment. He wrote out "Marry Me" on corn stubble. From the ground, the field looked like patchwork tilling. He...

X2 Don't go thicker unless planning to do the whole dock.

I like the lowball offer idea. Been there done that. The seller in my case wouldn't consider the offer when they heard the price, They played around with drama games for six months before they came back and asked if the offer was still good. It was a fair market offer and transaction was...

We have a 24 and two 25 versions along with a couple of Procross trail sleds that I rode last season. The Catalyst sleds all have similar mileage around 3,700-4k. The 24 seat seemed stiff until getting some miles. The 25 seats felt good until getting some miles and then it started to feel too...
