last season was a misquito nightmare and with all the moisture before winter finally came, snow melt and as wet as it has been so far anticipating another skeeter nightmare, and last year when they were at their worst there was nothing to be had for repellent. Has anyone used any of the therma...

Our park opens 2nd week of april, last year had deep frost that set back opening by a few weeks, this year the way winter has been and the sounds of the first week of march forecasts wonder if that opening date will come and go again this year, there will be lots of melting to do.

One thing I notice and it seems to do it more so when sled is warm yet like when you pull off side of trail for a few minutes to stretch legs and get back on trail it can sometimes take 4-5-6 times of the key for it to start with the electric start, its not that the sled wont or cant start it...

for those that may not have ridden in the UP this year and are still planning to, we encountered a very large number of deer standing on and traveling down trails, Just beware of this and pay attention to peripheral vision as well because where there was one there were more times than not many more.

Anyone that hasn't yet stopped to see bond falls on the trail 3/107 bruce crossing loop.... IT IS A MUST SEE!! and this past weekend the loop was excellent to awesome, 107 was a very nice windy return from the falls. When you get out would recommend stopping at UPCHUCKS for a bite, food was also...

Arrived on 16th Root cellar, 4:30 headed out trail 13 towards bergland, hats off to Gogebic grooming crew as 13 was EXCELLENT! Hopped on 8 towards ewen trail was fair but mind you was a Saturday afternoon but once hit ewen 8 went from fair to excellent, took 3 north conditions were excellent...

Just got back from a very interesting trip to the UP, One very interesting thing that occurred is within hours of each other we had 3 engines go down, one already torn down and mag side piston dome eroded away along with scoring on exhaust side of cylinder along with evidence of same starting to...

Correct me if I am wrong but I believe it is trail 12 that heads east from rockland towards silver mountain, a good part of this trail is a seasonal road and don't remember if it was last or the year before but the road was heavily plowed due to logging in that area,and was difficult to get sled...

Looking for place to ride on our final day, have never ridden Trail 3 Bruce crossing trail south of trout creek, looks like can do small loop and back up 107 to 8, has anyone recently or not taken this trail, and wonder if its a descent loop or stay away.

one of the guys in our group has a 2017 ski-doo grand touring that is intermittently displaying a suspension fault on guage cluster and will not allow you to then adjust suspension or access any of the other information on guage cluster, has anyone else seen or experienced this? going to see if...

With the advent of mass lay off's in the automotive industry which other manufacturers are predicted to follow suit, and the cut back of production of vehicle models, and the shift towards autonomous and battery powered vehicles, has any one given any thought to what kind of major changes may be...

Well the warm temps, the only snows we had being powder, didn't take long to obliterate the snow cover we had here in SE Wi. How far north now do you have to travel to get descent rideable snow?

battery dead and wont take charge in my 2017 Cat ElTigre 8000 and im sure they dont put the best of batteries in production. Are Yuasa batteries still the battery of choice for snowmobiles? I know they can be pricey but dont mind spending money on a good battery as you get what you pay for...

This time when I went to purchase oil to change in my 2007 f-1000 I noticed a flush made for it, was never prompted to buy of noticed it before. Does anyone else use this when changing oil in diamond drive? how do you assure it is all out of there before adding fresh oil or is it an alcohol wash...

Has winter finally arrived to Wisconsin? looks like the next week could be quite favorable for pretty much the entire state! Lets hope its here to stay for a while as the industry NEEDS IT! Also nice to see consistent pink/purple in the Kee on John's 5 to 10 day potential forecast, may not get...

hasn't been any yellows yet but nice to see purple/pink color on the 5-10 day pretty consistently in the Kee , know its only potential but still good to see along with predicted cold coming hopefully will greatly improve conditions and maybe more snows to the Northwoods of Wi and alleviate...

I have a question, This year I purchased a 24' enclosed trailer, I will be towing it to the Keewenaw to go snowmobiling in mid February, I know I have to plate the trailer however I do not have a D.O.T number on my shop truck that I use to haul the trailer. The truck is decaled so it is pretty...

John, just curious what your take may be on this winter weather thus far, haven't really seen or heard any explanation on any outlet. Do you think El nino? does it look like it may be letting up anytime soon? we definitely are not lacking any moisture, just the wrong type. Its the weather, it is...

As the moisture train continues here in SE Wisconsin, just think if we had favorable temperatures for the time of season we would probably have been at our seasonal average for snow or dam close anyways, very frustrating for those of us who want or need winter for whatever reason. :upset:

Has anyone heard from tracker? know he was away from site for a short stint a while ago for reasons, haven't seen any posts from him again for a while, just wondering if anyone knows if he is ok
