    Your "Bucket List"...

    No, it's never too early! I'm a similar age as you. I have small bucket list items in my head already. We all know how fast time goes once kids/grandkids/etc. are in the mix. At least think about it and get a list in your head, even if it's only 1 or 2 things to start, you never know when the...

    2-8 Snowfalls

    3-4" halfway between Oshkosh and Neenah. Fairly fluffy/dry. Plenty for the kids to track up the yard on their "new" 200's and to putz on the lake gawking at all of the trucks and shanties.

    Gogebic Lodge Access Trail?

    Does anyone know if there is a legal, open, groomed (periodically or regularly) access trail to Gogebic Lodge? In years past there has been, I forget if it came off of Trail 1 or Trail 100 and got you pretty much right to their driveway on hwy M-64, it's been a few years since I have been in...

    Secret water well in western UP near Greenland, MI?

    Have drank from that hose multiple times in the 20 or so years that I've ridden past that location on the BN. When I have new people in the group and we are passing by, I stop and introduce them to some of the best tasting water ever. I was aware of the article a few years ago when the state...

    Nice! I like the Charlie Berens cameo! Looking forward to it.

    Northwoods cam network

    A bunch of the UP cams not working on NCN are MDOT roadside cams. If they could be brought back to life on NCN that would be great, as it adds pretty good coverage to the area, yeah they aren't the greatest image quality but it's still something to look at when longing for snow. I did go onto...

    Saving the concrete floors

    I use SLP Ski Slips. I'm very happy with them for what I ask them to do. I put them on and drive across my driveway and into my epoxy floored shop. I have a pair for each sled and they go on the skis before I load them into the enclosed trailer. I wanted to keep my trailer floor flat and...

    Two Neighbors

    If you read/understand the words at face value, I think that's it...... Unless I don't get it either.

    Baraga to Chassell trail?

    I think different section of trail is being discussed? The one with lots of obstacles/backyards/driveways, believe that stretch is from Chassell to Houghton. I think OP meant Baraga to Chassell, believe there is a bridge/large culvert issue on that stretch preventing reopening? When the trail...

    Solar Eclipse

    That's cool that you're in the path of totality - yeah lots of people will be traveling hours from outside that path to get into it, so the "experts" are a little bit right. I'll be at work in Fond du Lac Wisconsin, I imagine if I have time (and remember) I'll step outside for a glimpse, I'll...

    New truck options

    I very much like my 2018 F150, 3.5 Ecoboost, 10 spd, crew cab 5.5 box. I have a 7x23 inline (3 or 4 place if crammed) that I pull, also the pull the pontoon boat a couple times a year, ~5600 lbs, which is close to one of the trailer weights you mentioned but probably a lot more wind resistance...

    Grooming history

    I too have heard stories from old timers (original club members) in Wisconsin (central and southern area), that trails were groomed with a sled pulling a mattress bed spring (probably threw the mattress on the burn pile then retrieved the steel wire/frame/spring assembly). I would guess this...

    Refrigerators

    My wife and I hate our Samsung fridge, for that matter, most of the Samsung 4 pc set (fridge, range, micro/hood, dishwasher) we bought from the big blue store in 2018. Part of it I'm sure is "get what you pay for", the whole set maybe was $3000-$3500 after sale and multi-piece discount. The...
