    Vilas County

    Sweep where are you taking off from in St.Germain? We took off from our house by lost lake and it was rideable. Didn't really hear the carbides hitting the ground and sleds stay cool. In town is bad and the power lines are only open from t-birds entrance up to keig stop. In town and along 70 not...

    Unbelievable you can't get a flight north out of Texas because your getting more snow down there then up North.

    Vilas County

    We played around a little bit in Vilas and for the most part enough snow to cool and keep your carbides from hitting the ground. Would I drive 5 hours and pay for a hotel to ride up here no I wouldn't I would go further north. Since it was the first time in almost 2 years I could ride from the...

    Vilas County

    Yes the lakes should be real nice and they should not get too rough because just not enough snow to get rough. Hopefully this will give some of the businesses a shot in the arm. You are correct in that it's not going to be trails you can go for miles just not good enough conditions. Still no...

    Iron county opens

    Not this weekend it's a holiday weekend and also the free weekend no trail pass needed. I can't say I am on board with this especially the money it takes to maintain these trails. If a $52 trail permit is the reason you don't ride in Michigan,then you are in the wrong sport.

    I know one of the big problems like in St. Germain where you got to go down roads to get through the neighborhoods are going to have snow but it's not packed snow. Your carbides are going to cut through to the asphalt. Should help the power sports stores move some parts. I feel this is the clubs...

    Vilas County

    Looks like they are going to have a meeting tomorrow on trail conditions according to Boulder Junction clubs trail report. Will be interesting to see what happens. I am guessing about 70% they open 30% they don't. Personally love to see them open but the common sense part of me says we need...

    Iron county opens

    I think with social media now days the clubs know that better to be honest because word will get out fast on how the trails are. If Vilas opens it will look very similar with some trails ok and some down to dirt in no time. Anyone who has ridden in Iron county should know there are some serious...

    Vilas County

    That would be a 1st if they do that. It has already been posted by the clubs that Vilas will open as 1 but maybe they have made a change. I personally belong to 3 different clubs in Vilas and if they have decided to do this they are keeping it to themselves. I can tell you from years past once 1...

    Vilas County

    Yes Paul on the old hate book. What a lot of people don't realize who are not involved and just come up to ride and be the first ones to complain about bad trails. There are a lot of private landowners who allow trails to through there land and they expect the clubs to protect their land and not...

    Vilas County

    I think Iron county could use more snow but it's mid January and trails haven't been open for almost 2 years. At this point I don't think they can keep waiting for perfect conditions. The good part there should be good frost in the ground. In the end there are a lot of different businesses that...

    EUP report!

    That's awesome glad you finally got your boy out. I think its just as much fun to see your kids out there having fun and learning how to ride. Looks like nice trails.

    Oneida County 1-9-25...Finally something

    Sure would be nice to have another clipper Attakman. Kind of weird there isn't another not too far behind this one. Seems like with Alberta clippers if you get one then normally there's a couple of more behind it.

    Extended Forecast Looking Great.

    If it's 91 no ethanol then I would add some octane boost and just not hammer down until you can run them down and add fresh gas then you can let it rip.

    Vilas County

    Yes very true. I know the trails I saw in the woods were still actually snow. Unfortunately we will have to take the hand we are dealt and make the best of it. At this point I would be happy just to be able to actually get geared up in my house and jump on the sled instead of gearing up on the...

    24th Vintage Snowmobile Championship

    Yes the weather is looking great for the races. Coming up this weekend should I trailer more north and join all the other 1000's of sledders or check out some vintage racing. Decision decisions. Wiscrev is this going to be on flow racing?

    Vilas County

    Paul has nailed it. Some trails actually have a solid frozen base. Probably more than not so that should help a lot. That's the positive the negative is there were also some areas that are bare ground. I can't speak for where Paul is at but through the town of Eagle was completely bare. I am...

    Sad News

    Very sad. Conditions aren't great rite now in a lot of areas then you add speed and alcohol and more times then not the results aren't good. Prayers to those left behind.

    EUP report!

    I will also say I feel both apps have there pros and cons. I like that the BRP app always shows rite where you are at while Polaris app sometimes you have to find yourself by moving the map around.
