    Vilas County

    I went to Cadillac this weekend It was thin but more than enough to keep the sleds cool and not ruining anything. And enough to keep the trails covered even with the traffic... It was definitely light traffic though comparatively to what it would have been during a normal year... Saturday night...

    Vilas County

    Paul What is it going to take snow wise to open the trails from now... I know all the clubs are working hard with what they can. Just wondering it is going to take a foot or two feet. I would think with the cold and what I think is there 6" would ge thing open... But what I think is there...

    What is the best weather app?

    gary_in_neenah, you know this better than anyone, but these where my thought as reading through the post as well. As far as other option and links knowing were the info is coming from is key. (and easy to tell with a web link.) But just because people have go to sites does not mean that they...

    EUP report!

    I was wondering about this, I did see previously that this was a hot topic issue... I truly hope they get it back or another route but I don't think that can happen... It is a great stop and very nice to see.

    NS1 guage....

    I've only used it twice now. The first time I could not find the option to lock the screen on it for the entire time. So it kept going to the lock screen, but seemed to work fine. The other time it was over 30 outside, so not a real good test... It was plugged in to charge. If not plugged in the...

    mobile tracking device

    You are correct on this but remember, your phone uses satellites as well. the data is only required for the graphics of the map. You can pre-download an area and still use your phone with GPS. GPS still has advantages as it's a purpose-built unit... For regularly out west I would most likely...

    NS1 guage....

    I do not have any connection to CMS. Just found them looking for ways to mount my phone... Here is a picture I took today of my phone on the Rokform Mount.

    mobile tracking device

    Anyone can do this with a smartphone no special equipment is needed. Even share with the Poo's and Doo's at the same time. Just download the Polaris and Doo apps to your phone. Set up an account for whichever you need or both. Then share with whoever you want. The guy riding with you or someone...

    NS1 guage....

    Funny I was just looking at these last week. One concern I did have is how the odometer reading transfers. I see the NS1 has an "odometer offset" reading but what if you change back to the original gauge cluster? Is this stored in a BCM on the sled? Or will the odometer reading always be off if...

    What is the best weather app?

    I've been watching the guys on Facebook. The only reason I got back on Facebook was due to John's passing. Seeing how no one sells on Craigslist anymore I'm sure I would have ended up back on Facebook for Market Place as well at some point... The guys I watch for weather are: Midwest Weather...

    FXR boots

    How much space do you actually have? Don't just go off the size. I have jumped up a size in the past on boots and never noticed the difference in length. But a narrow boot would drive me nuts... I bought my son some Fly Marker Boots with the BOA back in Aug... for $179. Be warned shipping...

    It starts again

    I rented your place in Rockland from you and your wife in February 2009. We had the downstairs with the hot tub. That place was great! You both were so nice to deal with. I still have a pair of Klim gloves I bought from you. (They have been downgraded to work glove status... LOL) Sorry, you are...

    Tales from the Trails

    When I was married, my ex was on a trip with two friends and myself. Basically, we rode from Rockland to Sidnaw, here is exactly what I wrote back in Feb of 2009: The very first trip I ever went on, I had a rental and I was the guy in the back trying to catch up... We were in Cadillac and...

    Giant gear bag

    I have thought about one of these style tool boxes... I figured the big one could double as a seat if need when needed... But then I go back and forth and don't want something hard-sided...

    Giant gear bag

    I use this as well! Because of the "SLED" bottom you can pull it through the snow. My only complaint with the bag is the amount of storage on the top half of the bag. Personally I would have prefered to have the bag the same height but the top storage area not on the opening top section but a...
