Need to get in touch with you. Shoot me an e mail, but clear out your personal E mail in box first, it's full and is not letting me contact you! -John

I know there is a lot of frustration out there right now, but keep in mind, there really is still quite a bit of winter to go through. For folks that can only get out to ride between Christmas and New Years for one reason or another, my heart goes out to you. You have been skunked for many...

At least there won't be any trails with two foot moguls on them! :eek: Ok. Sorry. Not funny. I'll go home now. -John

The Swiss and Austrian Alps. Already a couple of feet of fresh in the past day or to and looks like another 4-6 feet in the next week. Road Trip! :) Anyone know how much trail permits are there? -John

For not shooting the messenger in this mornings forecast! I know how much of a bummer it must have been for all of you, because I had to write it! Just keep in mind that things would not have to change dramatically in the pattern for some meaningful snows to fall in the Northwoods. We have been...

I remember back this summer, some teasing pics were put on the board to have us guess what the new construction project at the cabins was going to be. Did I miss the answer? or are you keeping it a secret folks will just have to stop by to see for themselves? I know I plan to stop by sometime...

Looks like Tog is starting to come alive. Shouldn't we see Pat doing snow angles in the parking lot by about now? -John

Well, we have finally joined the rest of the world with 3G service here in the Keweenaw and now I am considering dropping my satellite internet and going to using the cell service for my home/office internet provider. I am not looking at just hooking one computer up using an air card. I need to...

From the NWS in Fairbanks Alaska: ...ONE OF THE WORST BERING SEA STORMS ON RECORD WILL CAUSE WIDESPREAD STRONG WINDS AND COASTAL FLOODING ALONG THE WEST COAST... I saw that Kotzebue, which is north of Nome has had sustained winds to 56 mph with gusts to 74. Wonder what it's like out in the...

At first I thought my eyes were deceiving me or perhaps it was just some small leaf material blowing in the strong winds, but it turns out we have some flurries flying up here this afternoon. I have to look real hard, but they are there. -John

Holy Wa! When is the last time that happened. Tech Hockey, undefeated so far. -John

OK, going to stir the pot a little here. There are some indications that things might come together in a manner to produce the seasons first flakes of snow for parts of the UP next Wednesday night and early Thursday. Favored areas would be the southern LES belts. The precip would likely be lake...

Well, as I am sure everyone has had a chance to notice, there is a slightly new look to the board. Early this morning, the board was upgraded to the latest version. All the features to the board were kept the same and the general layout was also duplicated as best as could be. Most of the...

Happy 2 years old sweetie! Love Momma and Dadda!
