Was closed still when I rode thru there this winter

I fully understand you are speaking about Vilas, Oneida, Iron, but you mentioned northeast, and think most Wisconsinites consider those to be North-Central, even if they are shaded towards the east. Myself, when I hear northeast I think of Forest Florence and Marinette.

Im not trying to come off as snarky, but I’ve been hearing the same story for 20+ years, yet every decade comes a new group of 60+ yr old guys ready to take over their local clubs. I just don’t see that changing. I do however think weather patterns, cost, and land access is the biggest threat...

Great info. I am ALL for the increases mentioned, except I think $50 to $70 for out of state is too steep. I think a $10 increase would suffice there. The current $30 for 3 years reg, and $10/$30 yearly trail passes is too cheap for how much it costs to operate groomers. For how much everything...

I have read that MI increase is a done deal. I’m not sure how much though.

Judging by the long range temps up there, I don’t see how the snow in the woods will disappear before memorial day

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again. “Aging volunteers” is not a problem. Clubs originated mostly in the 70s, and it’s always been the 60-75 yr old crowd that does all the work. Work no longer calls, kids are out of the house. Nothing more a retired avid snowmobiler would love to do than...

Few more, check out the road stop sign!! I’d say 1/2 the trails we rode were rough, 1/4 were ok, and 1/4 were excellent. Rode from Munising to Grand Marais area and back. These are typically heavily trafficked, so no surprise there. Especially considering they’ve only had a few days to try to...

I’m sure many of you saw the crazy 50” snow totals in the central/eastern UP. Here’s a stop sign near Shingleton today!

Hard to even throw numbers out it’s so windy. All the roads in my neighborhood were drifted shut at 430 this morning 2-3 feet all the way across, and I have to weave thru A LOT of neighborhood to get out… can’t believe I made it in to work

Had a 6 hr lull yesterday evening. The news reported 14.8” for Greenville at that time. Started back up a few hours ago, Few more inches overnight, it’s really nasty out right now. If I had to guess we’ll end up with 8 additional. Going to go blow the driveway for the 5th time and head to work.

If I had to guess 12-15 so far? They’re saying another 8-12 tonight. Shall see! Took a rip down the wiouwash

7” in my front yard at 9am on the north side of Greenville WI

Yes, Green Bay yesterday was the bullseye. Today the storm has tracked slightly north with Green Bay being on the southern end of the bullseye.
