    Looking for mileage info (Hayward to Cornucopia)

    I could be wrong, but I do think the main trail from GrandView up to the Tri CTY Corridor has been closed, Now you have to go to Sandborn to Ashland or up to Iron River. We discovered that last year trying to go North, although it was still on the Paper map and Ride Command. It screwed up our...

    Building / Shop advice

    I'm sure a wood boat forum would give you some good answers on how to do it. I went to a wood boat show on Geneva Lake a few years ago, some of those things are pure art.

    Building / Shop advice

    That is what i would do. Your typical shop, pole barn or shed is tough to regulate the humidity, unless it was built like you would a house with foundation, heated floor..... and so on. New houses are tough to get the humidity down, especially in the summer months, and in my experience at 60%...

    Exciting Addition for Small Town Greenland.

    Congratulations! Is Bobcat still a controlled dealer network? Last Bobcat skid we had was a 873 20 years ago. Back then you had to buy new from "your area dealer" We have never tried another because we are not a fan of the owner. I just put some time on a Sub's new CTL the other day and really...

    Waning Demand?

    The pandemic was the best thing to ever happen to the dealers around here. None of them missed a beat, even early on. 3 out of the 7 did additions or new buildings in the last two years. All of them took part in the PPP loan scam. I can't blame them for taking it, but it does leave a bad taste...

    Waning Demand?

    I'm seeing price cuts on slightly used vehicles, although they are still high. the over 500K house market is dead unless it is a country property or on a good part of the river. I listen to a lot of financial and Real Estate podcasts, sounds like consumer debt is going high. It will be...

    Does Anybody have the real story on Cell coverage in Northern WI and the Yoop?

    I was in the Eastern UP a few weeks ago, I was shocked at how well US Cellular worked in most of the area.

    Building / Shop advice

    I would consider metal on a simple shop roof, when you get into a metal roof with a bunch of flashing details and valleys is when you better make sure the company is good and experienced with metal. I have seen some hack jobs out there. A freind of mine had his farm all re done by a Amish crew...

    Milwaukee Snowmobile USA Show

    The final nail in the coffin was When they lost dealers like Ken's and Ecklund and all four manufactures did not show up. We went last year and the show was already small. If UP North wasn't there last year it would have been pathetic. It was a tradition for us for years to hit the show, Mama...

    Electric vehicle

    The dimmer switch on the floor did not do well with all the dirt, mud and moisture. I remember replacing them all the time. I did like using them better though.

    What is your favorite UP ghost story or "haunted" location?

    Cisco Bar on the North end of Cisco Lake has been open for a few years. Needs work but it looks like they are making a good go of it. Only thing I ate was a order of mini tacos and curds. There is also a little bait store on Thousand Island that sells candy/beer, soda. I also enjoy the fact that...

    What is your favorite UP ghost story or "haunted" location?

    I love that chain of Lakes. It was a bit overwhelming navigating it the first day but after that it was a blast. Fishing was slow, but it was August so that was to be expected.

    What is your favorite UP ghost story or "haunted" location?

    I was on the Cisco Chain for afew days this past Summer. I never knew it was on it. Looking at OnX Hunt it doesnt look like you can see much from the Water anyways. It appears that there is nothing on the Property, Odd that the owners would keep it and not do anything with it.

    Trail 2 - Losing a section due to change of ownership

    I feel the same way about aftermarket exhaust and the companies that build them. There is no need for them except for closed course racing and even that doesn't help the cause. I try to avoid buying anything from companies that make them. I'm not one to like new laws, but they need stricter...

    Who's Going???

    I did buy a few beers from the swap area last year. Not a big deal because we were not staying there so we could not drink more than a few anyways. Just getting fed up seeing high prices of everything. I thought we paid $4 for a beer last year. It is Haydays not a pro sport event where you know...

    Who's Going???

    I went Saturday, I forgot how spendy it was to get in. Did they always charge $20 to park? I thought $8 beer was a bit high as well. Seemed like it was a good crowd. By the looks of it everyone had plenty of inventory compared to last year. Ken's had some good deals on some kids gear, $30 for a...

    Lodging recommendations.

    I have always been impressed by the food there. It is real BBQ. I believe they are also known for having a large collection of Whiskey. I think Gordon Ramsay even stopped by there when he was in the UP for his TV show. I like the "behind enemy lines" quote lol I would guess the same thing, but i...
