One thing nice about the crappy conditions last year and trails not opening, and this year, so far... is that we didn't discuss fatalities. Sorry to report but that ended tonight. I'm hearing that there was a fatality today in Houghton County in Sidnaw. All I know so far is that it was a 50 ish...

Ok, jealous here in Presque Isle WI.

I think my iPhone has the weather channel app installed on it, but I can't figure out how to tell. For the most part, pretty accurate and gives me what I am interested in.

My grandparents had that tree at their home in Chicago. Had a mirror base, color wheel and would rotate. I thought that was the coolest thing. Wish I had kept it when they passed.

I hope that's right. Checked AccuWeather this morning and they took snow out of the forecast for next week in the Northwoods and moved it to Chicago area, predicting 6-8".

Artificial. Had a real one for one year when the kids were little. Couldn't figure out why I had a never-ending stuffed nose and wheezing from Thanksgiving until after New Years. Suddenly cleared up after the tree went out to the curb for garbage. The mentally challenged Labrador Retriever also...

3" in Presque Isle overnight and still snowing lightly at 8am.

Its only December 19th. I don't think the season is "toast" as it really has not even started yet. I get it that last year sucked but the year before we were riding into mid/late March. I'm nowhere ready to give up on it anywhere in the near future.

Light snow in Presque Isle since last night and still coming down. A little more than an inch but every little bit helps right now.

The Wilderness, Chicago Pub, and good news on Shillelagh, which I hear received all of their lumber for the new building and a planned opening by St. Patricks Day.

Hmmmm, another restaurant/hotel for "her". Looks like "she" is starting a monopoly.

Riders out today on Presque Isle trails. They gassed up in town and headed north so I would imagine they were headed to UP trails. Our trails look flat and rideable, (barely) but with the temperature today and tomorrow, that thin base will go to mud and ice. The roads/crossings are down to bare...

We can hope. That was the jewel of P.I. back in the 80s and 90s. So sad to drive by it every day and see it abandoned. One of the P.I. volunteer firemen has been cutting the grass for the past few years just so it didn't look like such an eyesore. Would love to see it re-open as a bar/restaurant...

I'm hearing that the Sunday Lake Auto business owner, (who is a great guy and fellow snowmobiler) had too many near misses with the throttle jockeys blasting through his lot without a care for anything, had enough. Too bad. I don't blame him when idiots create a liability for his business.

My daughter in Bessemer says it's a whiteout and adding up quickly. She is firing up her sled and going out for the first ride of the season.

2000, when we built our cabin up north. Was looking for info on U.P. trails and accommodations when I stumbled across JD site.

6+" on ground in Presque Isle Wisconsin. Enough for me to ride to The Retreat Bar for lunch but I don't want to get shot at by angry deer hunters.

1" overnight in Presque Isle. Another 1" since daybreak and coming down pretty good now at noon. Bring on the lake effect.

Good God. Mine have been sitting in the garage since March of 2023. No miles in season of 2023/2024. Started the entire fleet of 7 several times throughout the spring, summer, and fall and brought then up to temperature or to the point that the garage looked like it was on fire from the smoke...

Happy Birthday T!
