I don't much about tug hill but that it's supposedly super busy. Beggers can't be choosers and all so I'll do some homework...

For this year I'd be ok with driving 20 hrs. We have 3 guys so not that big of a deal. Probably put in 5 or 6 after work and then eat a day traveling the next. Then drive straight through on the back end. Might have to get creative or we won't be spinning them at all. Hopefully it gets cold and...

I'm thinking maine or quebec. Not sure about AZ but I can't swing the rental costs out west this year at least.

Aint that the truth. The big dogs have never been so big.

We're planning on driving somewhere on the 21st. No idea where at this point.

Yes you can either download the maps or get a chip from him to install. You can use silicone to mostly waterproof them. https://www.snowtechmagazine.com/poormans-snowmobile-gps-solution/ I've seen people running smaller tablets or even their phones, but I think you'd have to find one that can...

Just depends on what you want to spend. In our group we have cheapo nuvi's with vv mapping trails on them. Garmin tread is on the other end of the expense side.

No interest. Had a 90's jeep for a long time that wasn't all that much different especially with the windshield down than the modern sxs' I've driven (although the jeep was a heck of a lot cheaper) and eventually got bored with it. If it doesn't snow this year, I'll ride next year. Or we'll...

Good to hear you're on the mend.

Meant to say I'm NOT worried about the engine. So pretty much the exact opposite of what I meant to say :) I'm buying mostly for the kids but I think I'll look into clutching, etc. to wake it up a bit. My twins are 12 now but around when they were 7 or 8, I loved riding around with them on...

I'm getting one of those doo 900's thingies from a relative, mainly for the kids, but I can see myself taking it on Ontario trips too. I've ridden around with it with my kids on it quite a bit when they were smaller but I don't know much about it. Has some miles on it but I'm worried about the...

Yeah he's on FB. I despise FB but I was looking to buy something a couple years ago and wanted to look on their classified so I set up an acct with a fake name, using a email address set up with a fake name, and run in only in firefox container, and I pretty much only use to check snow...

yamaha got out due to global emissions targets. Their sled line was profitable - how could it not be given no R&D and dealers crying for more product to sell. They are now investing in electric bikes as a growth market. Textcat has a 4 stroke in development.

The Midwest weather guy says things are going to change around 2nd week of Feb. and then beyond that. Fingers crossed he's right. He predicted the polar vortex or whatever that was weeks out. Sounds like most of the northwoods will be starting over by then.

We were supposed to drive up tomorrow but cancelled/postponed to the 2nd half of February. Usually do two 5 day trips. Maybe just one this year, and might need to put more miles on the truck to make it happen. I thought I was emotionally prepared given John's forecast but I'm bummed anyway. But...

I saw the soo and wawa groomers are starting to work towards each other. They had pretty decent snow coverage in that area but not much north of wawa until you get up towards hornepayne. What a weird year for sure. We're looking at the 2nd half of Feb now. Might look at Quebec too.

We decided not to go. Seemed like it was marginal last weekend, and that was when it was cold and there was snow elsewhere. Plus we all had some family stuff we were skipping out on. A couple of the days we would have been up there, the low is in the 30's. I assume crazy traffic and there's no...

Probably built like a tank and will keep going another 20.

I'm in the same boat but thinking of driving up Wednesday. Everything I'm seeing is early season marginal conditions and that is before the temps get into the 30s later this week. Starting to lean against going

Best I can tell the snow cover in the UP is spotty - good in a few pockets but kind of scattered. And there's some kind of storm coming through early next week that could be rain or snow depending on how far north. Was thinking about driving to Mass City Wednesday night and riding for a few...
