As I write this morning it was freezing rain at 6am and by the looks of the radar it will be like that until this afternoon when it might stop and give us a dry window until tonight when it could transition over to snow with a couple of inches. Tuesday looks to be more snow than mixed...

I can access johndeeforum.com but not the website. Anyone else having this issue? If not, maybe cookies, or not implementing an update? tried rebooting, no luck.

Freezing rain this morning turned into 1" of snow today, the high was a cloudy 34 degrees, 38 when I was in Rhinlander. Trails still look pretty good and it is supposed to cool down a little (below freezing during the day) the next few days. Way more snow depth the farther north/northwest you go.

Left Manitowish Waters at 10am, took 6 North to PI, just perfect! 6 East over to Bents for Lunch, again everything was perfect, met a few sleds, Bents started to fill up at Noon, talked to a couple of guys from Lake Gogebic, said the trails on the way down were awesome as well, Cisco Chain was...

Picked up 2-3" of fresh snow late Tuesday/overnight and it's snowing again here in Manitowish Waters. We needed this as the trails were a little snirty around towns. Hopefully be back in great shape after today.

Drove up to Hurley and west to Upson today. Trails snirty near Mercer but plenty of snow, as you get closer to Hurley the trails are all white and look really good. West of Hurley to Upson they are nice as well, they do have a lot more snow up that way but all in all trails have held up pretty...

The Manitowish Groomer was back in service last night and they went out to groom everything. This may interest you all but we only have some 26 miles of trails in MW Club area. Trails should see great improvement as the weather is getting colder by the hour, it was 34 degrees at midnight for the...

Anyone hear anything on whether they will have the hill climb this year at Copper Peak or Whitecap Mountain? I looked on their website and really nothing about it.

FYI, The MW Clubs groomer is down this week. They are hoping to get it back in service as soon as possible, date is unknown at this time. Mercer, Presque Isle, and Boulder Junction are pitching in and helping with the grooming in the meantime.

We picked up about 4" of new snow overnight, light snow so 10 sleds down the trails blows it off but I think that we are heading for an opener soon in Vilas. Pic is from my yard, it's looking better day by day!

I thought I saw on Rhinelander TV that Mercer Trails were opening Friday at 7am. Iron County has been open partially for a week or so. Can anyone confirm Mercer?

We currently have 2 degrees this morning and have 6" of snow on the ground in MW area. 4" of heavy wet snow fell on Tuesday followed by an inch of drier snow, this was good for building a base but the lakes now have that on top of maybe an inch or two of solid ice so take that for what it's...

My buddy a couple of lakes over on our chain caught this 42" musky while walleye fishing on a 1/2oz jig with 6lb test line the other day.

God Bless all those and their families that endured 9/11/01. I was in Denver, CO that day on business, I remeber my wife called me and asked if I was near a TV. It was breakfast time and I watched the 2nd plane hit the towers, It was a Tuesday I believe and after a few appointments it was clear...

Yesterday I was on a walk on our road and felt that nice hot burning sting and noticed that I had been stung by a bee on my ankle. I continued to walk and got back home and we put some baking soda paste on it to help with the itching and swelling. Did not work very well this time, I decided to...

Can anybody direct me to who might have parts for 2008 Yamaha Wave runner Model VX110A-GW 10" hull. Looking for the Steering Thruster piece in back that controls the steering. May be used or new, doesn't matter. Thanks

I am in process of needing to get my land surveyed. I have less than an acre, I know where the pipes are located on all four corners and have a plat map of my property. I talked to a guy who is local in Vilas County, WI and when it came time to discuss the price price he quoted me $1,750.00. Is...

I became involved in our local chapter of "Walleys for Tomorrow" this year. Planning starts in February and there are many local chapters in Wisconsin, ours is on Manitowish Waters, WI. The process involves a lot help in the way of Trailers to incubate the eggs, boats, nets, and volunteers to...

Did anyone attend the hill climb this year at Copper Peak? I didn't even know they had one but noticed the ski jump when I flew out of Ironwood/Gogebic airport Thursday to Ohare in Chicago. They run a $102.50 round trip Regional Jet service daily except for Saturdays. I have been looking for an...

2" of nuisance snow overnight, cold this morning after starting the week in the 50's. still making ice with nightime temps in the teens. No Spring this year, heading right towards Summer.
