    My experience on the new signs

    We rode a trail today that I'm pretty familiar with. Now that the new signage has went into effect I can see how idiotic it really is. They removed the 90 degree turn signs on the 90 degree turns! Somehow there was a chevron sign that was there going one way but not the other. I hate to...

    Anyone ever buff their headlights?

    I bought a rain x kit to buff the headlights in our 2004 Camry. It has 156,000 on it and the headlights are extremely dim. I just got done using the kit. Quite the workout but the lights do look better. Anyone else do this? Any tips for upkeep?

    Looking for log splitter; where to buy? (Munising)

    I was thinking about buying a new log splitter around Munising. I didn't know if there was a place that sells equipment like that. Looking to not have to drive past Marquette, Manistique or Escanaba. I'd rather go to a local dealer than a big chain if possible. I just have no idea who...

    Scranton PA pays public employees minimum wage

    Now this is kind of crazy. The city has literally ran out of money and are forced to reduce the wages of police, fire, etc. employees. The mayor was forced to do this causing their wages to be $7.25 per hour! The unioins now have 3 lawsuits against the city. They're broke! Even if they won...

    Heading up next week for some fly fishing and just general trout fishing. Looking for brookies, browns, and rainbows mostly. Heading to the St. Mary's river on the Canadian side for a day as well. Going to try my luck for some Atlantics. Anyone else doing any good trout fishing in the Yoop?

    Fogging Rush/Switchback/Assault question

    I believe the 3 models mentioned all have the same issue getting to the airbox. Does anyone have an 'easy' way to fog these sleds? There's many posts I've seen elsewhere but none look easy. Drilling holes and such which I'm not interested in doing with a brand new sled.

    Done for the year and new sled??

    Well, the last trip over the weekend was the best all year. Now I've decided I'm done. I found a leftover 2012 Pro-R Switchback in snowcheck orange for $9200 out the door. I have to buy it! Come on next season! Is everyone else calling it quits?

    Why doesn't Alger County have a club grooming?

    I think the title says it all. Just confused as to why there isn't a club grooming and why there is a contractor grooming. Makes for pitiful trails.

    Rapid river poo dealer south of munising

    I must say that I am very pleased. I took my sled there because a different dealer wouldn't fix my warranty issues on my sled. The name of the dealership in Rapid River is called Bergeron Marine. They are the oldest poo dealer in the Midwest. If you're in the central UP and have problems...

    Artic Front Indicated for next week

    I was just curious about your confidence on the artic front coming by next Wed or Thurs? I cancelled my trip for this weekend into the early week and moved it to later that week into the weekend. I just figured that would be a better option with the way that temps are looking for this weekend.

    Polaris demo rides Wetmore 1/25/12

    Yesterday we stopped at the cherrywood for lunch and lo and behold; a Polaris semi and a bunch of brand new sleds. We talked to the guys for a bit. They aren't doing the demo rides until today which is when we're leaving. I'll just buy a new sled anyway so I'm glad I didn't get the chance. I...

    Conditions for the last LES storm

    I was wondering what the conditions were that caused the last major LES event. The event that I'm referring to was on 1-1-12. I believe it started that night. Wasn't it just LES snow and not system snow? Why was there so much and the rest of the LES events are much less? Thanks in advance!

    Snow x helmet question

    What helmet do you guys have. I bought the prescription goggles for the helmet, just not the helmet. I was thinking of the Klim but I don't want to spend $500 and a new balaclava. What are some good options. I'm thinking $200 would be good and the Klim balaclava.
