I tend to agree they typically blow short range forecasts but this season most of the short range was quite accurate in Waushara County.

I'm glad I hit it the week we had snow (389 miles). Haven't used a snow shovel or snow blower since Jan 13th. Grease it up, treat the fuel & look forward to next season. Boats are ready, but C.O.E. has Winnebago pool down to 1.58' as of this morning. Full pool is 2.9' - 3.0'. This drawdown is...

Sal's in Appleton

No use for ATV. Like Whitedust, it becomes boat season.

Yesterday, rode to Orihula for lunch at Wolf River Lodge. Snow gets a but thinner to the NE. Still basically Good with some Fair. Thru Pine River going and Saxeville returning. 66 miles RT. Today, headed east passing Pine River & Poy Sippi to the south to Borth then south to Eureka Landing for...

Yes we have snow but the forecast looks bad after tomorrow or maybe into Monday.

Chili dump, that's right. They said they had a 3rd by the bridge checking it out. As I continued west I passed him heading east on an older sled if I recall correctly. So I guess all 3 were out tinkering.

There were 2 old guys in a Tucker (without the drag in tow) putting up a hand painted sign pointing to the warming shelter at a road crossing about a mile or 2 east of the big Neenah Creek bridge. They told be they would be out grooming Thursday. Also, I saw a poster at Foxy's. Didn't pay too...

Today's venture was to Briggsville: Jumped on the trail at the same point as day 1 (see map in 1st post) south to intersection 59 then west to 63 south, 14 west, 16 south, 22A west, 23 south into Marquette County. Up to this point, trails were Good. After a mile or 2 into Marquette, things went...

Today I headed east, passing by Pine River & Poy Sippi just to the south. Overall, trails were Good with a periodic Fair until just east of Poy Sippi cemetery. At this point, the trails leave the woods & hills and become farm fields & swamp. From the cemetary east to Borth, I'd have to say Fair...

7:00 am, -8 at Appleton Airport, -9 on my way home.

I don't know about west of the river. This is my 3rd winter here, 1st was a bust, last year poor. That being said, I've been coming to this area over 50 years in the summer. So now I'm exploring via snowmobile.

Got out yesterday & did a 32 mile loop. Basically. I jumped on where I'm pointing to & rode Clockwise, turning right at intersections 59, 61, 39 then left on the dead end at 43 to The Ding (green dot 37) then back to 43, right on 43B & 56 home. Some had been dragged, some drifted but overall a...

7" in my yard yesterday, 14" now & still snowing steady.
