I checked my gps “tracks” only to find they never transferred to the new computer. We were up there Friday and thought I could get some updated ones but after a 12” snowfall on Thursday we didn’t want to miss any of the trails. CR510 is the single road that trail 14 crosses over in multiple...

I need to look at my gps tracks on my big boy computer. As I recall about 3/4 the way up 14 you run the road about a mile or so to hop back into woods on the “trail route”, instead, you go left (technically the road is CR 510) a short distance and pick up the trail crossing back over CR 510.

Our mid UP trips take us across logging roads and some plowed roads whether we want to or not, just glad they are there when needed. If I smell my buddies hyfax I lower them. Going to Big Bay from Marquette you can cutoff 5 miles of slow switchbacks by running the road just 1/2 mile further...

Thoughts and prayers for his family and friends. He will be missed.

Euphoric1. Check with the casino outside Harvey and one in Christmas Mi as they may allow drop and ride. Buckhorn, Tanglewood worth a call as those owners are proactive businesses supporting snowmobilers. We base out on 16 mile lake and will put on 1k miles in 5-6 days. The location is perfect...

Happy to share gas stops and points of interest if I have a rough idea of your trek. We base out ”by” Buckhorn and make our week between Big Springs, Republic, Big Bay, Grand Marais, Seney, McMillian and Tfalls. My suggestion might be from L’Anse to Negaunee, fuel and get on 8. Take 8 through...

Use the Michigan DNR map for Alger for Eben and Schoolcraft for Palm Book State Park (aka Big Springs). Eben is a mile off of 8. By Chatham on some maps but in Eben. As for Big Springs/Jack Pine. You could consider basing out of Buckhorn (SW of Munising off of 94). Trail 7 south towards Big...

Tim, you renting or own a place to get that kind of time in the snow? So jealous!

Hope you feel better soon! Make sure you hydrate as much as you can….

Early-mid January. Two weeks later end January early Feb. Two weeks later than end of Feb. Then, whatever March can offer. We base out of 16 Mile Lake (by Buckhorn).

Here is my favorite shirt.

Happy Belated Birthday Mezz! I hope your day was an enjoyable (and with little knee pain).

20 years ago I rode the train into Chicago everyday with a guy that called himself “doc”. He worked for AT&T and carried (more like clutched) a duffle bag. His then functional phone was one of the original “brick” models. He said they pushed 6+ watts versus the never ones that were regulated to...

I hope that the County & Township trustees take note and don’t make the economy hostage to one business. Building codes should be maintained and a “no variance” policy observed. This facility is responsible for the safety of many many people.

I had been Sprint 20 years until 2016ish. Had Verizon since and service has been as spotty as was Sprint. My riding buddies also have Verizon and the same phone. At the same place same time, I get zero service and they have been good, WTF. Verizon uses cdma and ATT & Tmobile/Sprint use a...

I have always said my brother is better with one arm than I am with both. I got the brains, kind of, sort of. Appreciate the referral. Thank you.

Road America and Watkins Glen. Both great camping and racing. Planning on getting out west next year but wife’s knee surgery from a year ago may set me back, again.

Thank you. I did mention to him to call Pat’s for a used sled and discussion on mods! 👍

Looking for people’s thoughts and insights. My brother lost his lower right arm almost 40 years ago. He modified his 82 Yamaha to allow for left hand operation. The sled is now too old and tired to service. What newer sleds do people see as modifiable for him and how? He isn’t looking for high...
