Spoke with a guy from Hurley yesterday and he told me that they have measured 60" of snow already in November. He has had to shovel his roof twice and he said that never happens in November. while they have had all that snow he said they had to go to Ashland and there was grass showing there.

It's a great place up here. It's possible for a ride this winter, let me know when and I'll see if I can make it. Thanks for the invite and I agree, Happy Wife, Happy Life, wherever that might be. I'm not on any other social media sites other than linkedin and there are some great people on this...

I too bought an item from Cotosen, They charged me right away and it took at least 6 weeks to the merchandise. The quality wasn't what it appeared on their website. I wouldn't buy from them again either.

I kind of gathered that you would like to back in the Northwoods but as you say, Family does come into play. We have settled into the community, My wife still has to work for benefits and she now has a great little job 32 hours a week Monday through Thursday with 3 day weekends so we can go...

Looking at where you are basing out of and that you are traveling with wives a good trip might be to leave Conover and head south through Eagle River down through Sugar Camp, west toward Newbold and then up 47 toward Lake Tomahawk, from there its just a short ride up to Minocqua where you can...

Happy for you, I think there is respect here from people who understand the definition of the word. Like I said there is room for everyone, just ask for a little common sense to be used.

I attend meetings in our township of MW, as of right now nothing has been decided and that has been status quo forever regarding wake boats. I'm not a huge fan of the DNR and their overeach period. The town has to be mindful that that tourists/locals bring $ to the area during the summer and...

WHPH, thanks for the great perspective from a womans view. You are spot on and I agree that many more women would enjoy the sport if they eased into it like you suggested. I have ridden with guys that want to call it a day because the trails are too rough or it's too cold so it's important to...

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...

If you lived on the lake and wake board boats consistently came within 200 ft of your pier and shoreline I guarantee you would have a different opinion of them. I agree that it's everyone's lake and they have a right to enjoy it but so does everyone else.

Great place, I think they are closed one day during the week, it was either Tuesday or Wednesday so we rode back down to Headwaters in BJ.

I would say either go north to Copper Harbor or west toward Hayward, WI. As far as miles to ride per day you might want to keep it at around 100-150 miles if you are beginners. A shorter trip would be the Casino in Lac Du Flambeau and you could stay in Minocqua or at the Casino.The earlier you...

Marty, Thanks for your opinion on snowmobiling in the Manitowish Waters area. I have been coming up here for 45 years and we bought property here in 2015. I have never met any anti snowmobile people that have businesses in this area and we know many of the bar and restaurant owners personally...

Its done ere in MW, 5", the trees are hanging low and the wind is coming up now.

A good 4" of heavy wet snow on the ground so far in MW area. Still snowing as of 6pm. Careful out there, it's heart attack snow.

Yes, I would refer you to Aqualand Brewery, not a bad place and they have good food and tap beers, nice people.

Snowmobiles are very welcome in that area, not sure where you get that? SXS's it's a different story, As Goofy said there are 4 towns, MW, Winchester, Plum Lake, and Boulder Junction that do not allow SXS's in their townships. It's my understanding that a Town can still override the county on...

Carlin has been closed for a long time. It briefly opened a couple years ago and a younger couple was running it, we went over for dinner and it brought back memories of a long time ago when the Carlin was open all the time. It closed after a few months, never to re-open again, miss it.

Old Abe, good to have you back! So the world market set the diesel price at $5.00 gallon or higher because they can. I can believe that, but it just crushes the American people and the people all around the world as well. Is that the end goal?

What manufacturer, especially seasonal would want to have huge amounts of inventory on hand as the FED deliberatly slows the economy down? Higher prices and high interest rates (loans which are needed to make large purchases) are a recipe for disaster in my opinion. Every smart Economist will...
