    2026 skidoo

    Besides some new colors not much changed for trail sleds. As far as smart shocks sounds like they do work. I was choosing between the 2 in January I ended up going with the blizzard with the 3 clicker shocks. For me being I like to work on my sleds I didn't want to be dealing with a bunch of...

    Very nice Indy. Perhaps I will see you out there as it looks like a miracle have happened and my sled may finally be ready to pick up. If Vilas opens which it is looking like a possibility I may just ride there. If not I will be in the U.P somewhere. I want to make sure the sled actually works...

    Winter 2024/25

    Yeah I noticed today they seem to back off on temps next week. Everything I saw was saying mid March it's going to go full spring but it seems like they have backed off of that at least for next week.

    Just saw John Dee on TV.

    It's called Wardens of the north. They follow the DNR officers of Michigan around. You can look it up and watch episodes.

    How did the trails look? I did see Eagle river went out and groom and cleared trees that fell.

    My wife works for a oral surgeon and she closes about 4 to 5 weeks every year. My wife only gets 2 weeks of vacation every year, so we kind of try to plan things around when the office is closed which doesn't work the best to ride. They always close the last week of March. We have been able to...

    Seeing the same thing. Most years you can count on riding the Kee until the end of March. Gogebic area maybe mid March and anything past the 1st weekend in March in Vilas is a bonus.

    Has to be the strangest closing time I have seen to close a trail system. At this point might as well close them tomorrow at 6 am. I can't imagine saying the heck with let's go grab lunch on the sleds and then realizing after you ate you can't ride back because trails closed while you ate. Does...

    We are finally going to get a heavy wet snow now that it won't last long. Maybe they will open the trails for one more weekend if this happens. I think they know the businesses could use it we shall see.

    I saw some sleds up at Bent's camp. The trails don't look terrible up by Land o. From what the sno- bunnies are saying it does look like Vilas could open back up without a full inspection

    Looks like the snow eagles went out and groomed last night and cleared some trees. The one trail doesn't look too bad that they posted. I wouldn't doubt there is still some on riding out there but there is also a lot of really bad to go with it.

    Rumored - Arctic Cat has been bought

    Wouldn't that be so cool to have a John Dee special edition. That would be Cats best seller in years. I am already interested in the Catalyst that would be what would convince me to give it a try. Really sounds like Cat got it rite with the Catalyst. Perhaps a new refreshed rear suspension and...

    Rumored - Arctic Cat has been bought

    I guess I am not a business man or nothing but for the life me I can't fight out if they have the 26 line up ready then why not put out a spring order? They could just build a many as they can sell. They have all the tooling paid for so what does hurt to produce what you can move. I am hoping...

    Mosquito Inn Vintage Snowmobile Show

    Very nice. A lot of great looking sleds there. I wish I was coming up this weekend, looks like going to be a lot of nice sleds there. Once winter ends I start to look forward to sled roundup in St.Germain always some nice sleds there.

    Rumored - Arctic Cat has been bought

    I was surprised to see this. I thought for sure with Kip taking on cat that they either had a buyer or they were planning on starting up production again. Sad day hopefully they will get it all squared away and get going again.

    If this is true that is really crappy and I wouldn't patronize that hotel or resort again if they decided that's the only criteria if you can ride or not if trails are open. There not a sledder in there rite mind would ride the trails unless you want to have a reason to get a new sled next year

    It also says temporary closing leaving the possibility of reopening if some miracle a winter storm actually hits the north woods. I am pretty sure a couple of years ago they changed the rules on reopening the trails. If they close and then get more snow each club can do there own inspections and...
