27"-41" in Ironwood????? Been a long time since we saw numbers like that from one storm. I guess that we can wait and see....and hope. That would be a great start for the season if it doesn't get warm and melt all of it.

Bought our little seasonal cabin in Presque Isle in 1997. Bulldozed and built year-round home in 2000. Someone gave me a cabin logbook gift when we first bought. I figured it would probably be good to keep a record of when we came and left, fish caught and where, weather conditions when we were...

Our 100-acre lake in Presque Isle started to ice over yesterday. This morning it looks like most of the shorelines/bays have made ice. About 25% of the open body of lake now iced over. Checked my cabin log and looks to be about a week or two earlier than what I have kept track of over 28 years...

Happy Birthday Tim.

2" in Park Ridge, IL. We missed the 3"per hour and 12-18" totals and lake effect the forecasters panicked everyone about yesterday, including me. I guess higher amounts near Lake Michigan but nowhere near what they predicted. Good thing is that it forced me to prep and start snowblower yesterday.

I get it that Blink Bonnie serves a good steak but for me, the place is too small and cramped and I refuse to stand in a line like I'm at Disney World to spend more than a hundred bucks on a steak dinner for my wife and me.

Forecasters were correct last night. They predicted possible snow showers in my area, (Presque Isle Wisconsin) and when I got up this morning before daylight, I looked out on the deck, and it was white. It has been snowing on and off since 6:30 am. Not really sticking but it was a good start to...

The way I view forecasts is simple. Wake up in the morning and look out of the cabin windows. If there are dark skies/clouds to the west and north and it is below 32 degrees, probably going to snow. As for how much, a lot would be nice but even a little is better than nothing. To get more exact...

I get it. Had my right rotator cuff fixed in March of 24. Still not good. 2nd knee being replaced in December. Probably lose a lot of the season. Hope to be on the sled mid-February. Isn't getting older fun?

Why? Don't tell me that with your sledding stats you are giving it up.

Hope you still have some good color up there. My wife and I did our annual color cruise on Saturday in the Ottawa north and east of Marenisco. Wind was brutal both Friday and Saturday blowing down the leaves. Even blowing down a lot of the green leaves.

Yukon 51 is further north on 51 near the south end of Pine Lake.

Great show. Looking forward to it.

I would call that sled bare bones.

All good in Presque Isle. Good to see you also Paul and meet the Mrs. Leaves starting to turn a little up here and we have slowly started putting some of the summer stuff away. (Planters, hoses, lake toys, solar lights, etc.) Grandkids spent a week in the Northwoods and Bobby#3 got to take a...
