    Voyaguers National Park

    Been up there once. The very northeast part by the reservation that goes up by canada does remind me of riding in canada. No traffic, great scenery, a lot of fresh snow on that trip at least. Unfortunately that area is kind of cut off from being able to make a loop to anywhere because of the...

    Missing John and his forecasts

    I've wanted to post something similar many times. Miss the journals too. I think how much his family and all his friends up there must miss him all the time.

    Time for a New Helmet?

    I'm probably about due for a new one. I don't live near the snow but will be in the milwaukee area in a month for a kids sport tournament. I may try to find a shop to try some one. Last helmet I bought from dennis kirk since they cover shipping each way, but that was kind of a hassle. I think...

    RIP Nick Keller - Snowball Cancer

    Never met him, but what a legend. Really enjoyed reading stories about his rides and fund raising.

    Your Pre-Season Checklist

    That's a great list. I wish I could do a better job keeping up on mine.

    Trail 1 and 13 loop open?

    I don't know why all the northern states are governed by commies.

    Trail 1 and 13 loop open?

    That's my favorite area in the UP, the trails heading up to Big Bay on each side. Seems like many don't bother due to the remoteness. Closest thing to riding in northern Ontario in michigan. Hopefully the secret doesn't get out. I think a lot of people just fly down 8 to get from one side of the...

    One place snowmobile trailer

    I'm interested in seeing what you did. I'm interested in doing a set up like this too. Did you go with 5 x 12 or 6 x 12?

    What Will You Be Riding This Year?

    48 here. Was in college when this site started I think. Really miss reading the journals every week and waiting every morning for the forecast to drop. Hope the family is doing ok.

    What Will You Be Riding This Year?

    Thanks. I do take care of it. Need to do all the drivetrain bearings in the next month or so....

    What Will You Be Riding This Year?

    Staying on my 18 cat 600 one more year. Will be over 10k after the next trip. Never thought I'd keep it this long, but kids sports and activities take up much of my time and quite a bit of $ too. That won't last too many more years and I wouldn't trade it. Still get out riding every year a...

    Sled in bed of mid-sized truck?

    Anyone move a sled around in the back of a midsized truck? I was looking for something for my son like a nissan frontier, but it would be nice if I could use it when I need to move my sled too. I don't think there is 48" between the wheel wells, so I'd think I'd have build something for it to...

    Need legal advice for brother in a real estate transactions

    To be enforceable, contracts require offer, acceptance, and consideration. Offer and acceptance can be verbal (per contract law, but good luck proving it) but consideration means some money has to change hands - it can be as low as a $1 down pmt. If no dollars were exchanged, it's not enforceable.

    What's a 2016 doo 900 worth?

    Yeah it's impressive for what it is. It's what I thought yamaha could make and make a killing at.

    What's a 2016 doo 900 worth?

    thanks. We worked something out - I wanted to make sure it was fair. It's family so I won't share amount. Looking forward to having it. Kids have used in the past, and I like that it's quiet, easy to drive (feels light and throttle pull is non-existent), and has the slower modes that can be...
