    Tomahawk Update 2-28-23

    Yes, it was crazy how much of the new 6" of snow melted on Tuesday where we reached a high of 35 in MW but it was full sun, roads that were snowcovered are now bare so my advice is if you are coming to ride better do it now. Friday through Monday shows temps in the high 30's and cloudy with no...

    What makes us ride where we do?

    I always ride from home as I live here now, I would not be opposed to a backpack trip now & then. Where I ride depends on the day of the week and conditions. During the week (M-Thursday afternoon) you can usually ride anywhere up here and the traffic is low, if I do ride weekends I go west into...

    Sled accident in Vilas, at Plum Lake.

    Thats a good plan and you will love being able to ride during the week. Understand that most have to take the weekend as part of their time to ride but you are correct in the fact that riders are certainly hogging the trails more. Perhaps they need to take a refresher safety course?

    Feb 27 Snow

    Never saw a floating island on Rest Lake but it was probably a bog that got loose and blew into the channel. I've seen that happen between Fawn and Stone Lakes, eventually they just follow the wind like you said and end up where they do.

    What amount of miles on a sled scare you?

    Yes, it was a 2020, just kidding, it was a 2000 and it only had a little over 3,000 miles on it when I sold it. I bought it for my daughter and it was a perfect sled for her. The 500 was quick and a great trail machine and it ran perfect and started all the time.

    Who Rode The Catalyst?

    Nothing wrong with being loyal to your best Manufacturer if they are loyal to you which it seems they are. Not many understand that business philosophy nowadays. I worked for a very large flooring distributor and we had one key supplier who was very good and always worked with us to keep it that...

    Feb 27 Snow

    Sweep, Someone did a huge remodel on the main house and other buildings if that is the place? On the point/river as you leave Rest Lake entering the channel to the river? People ride snowmobiles down Channel Road and hop on Rest Lake to go up to town instead of taking the trail. Crazy what...

    Feb 27 Snow

    It started in Manitowish Waters around 10am this morning and as of 7pm it is pretty much done. We ended up with 4-5" of new snow today puts us over 20" for the past week so lot's of snow up here and it should stick around for awhile. Tuesday shows sunny and 35 so sun will burn some snow off...

    Burger King closed in Mincoqua

    If you are looking for a great place to eat, breakast all day, lunch, dinner, there is a small place in a little strip mall just west of Trigs and south of Walmarts parking lot in Minocqua. It's also right on the snowmobile trail.

    NW Vilas Update 2/23 PM

    Just a note, talked to a guy at the gas pumps at Dietz's in MW this morning, he came down from Presque Isle, said everything was awesome, said they road up to Lake of the Clouds Sunday and there was so much snow up that way it was crazy. Still snowing at 2pm Monday, 2/27 with about 2" so far.

    Tomahawk Update 2-22-23

    It's been all snow since about 10am here in MW. About an inch so far at noon, coming down pretty good so who knows, maybe we'll get 3-6" like they are forecasting.

    What amount of miles on a sled scare you?

    I sold my Polaris 2001 600 Classic with 17,000 miles on it back in 2020. When I sold it it I had replaced or rebuilt all shocks, clutch, 2 new tracks, and various other parts. I was moving then and two major things needed to be done to make it nice again, reverse needed a rebuild and upper...

    Trail 15 Iron River MI

    The icy corners and trails worry me a little bit with the racer boys up here, luckily I can wait until they leave and it's less congested. I say ride if you can, I understand that not everyone has what we have in our backyard. We have just entered ice season and everything under all that snow is...

    Trail 15 Iron River MI

    Yep, I think there is a couple of rides left but it looks like rain/ice for most south of Vilas, hopefully all snow for us. Let's keep in touch for next year and try and get a ride in.

    Trail 15 Iron River MI

    I haven't been out since we got all the snow so I was wondering how the trails were, you kind of confirmed my thoughts. There were tons of snowmobiles up here this weekend and one death so far in Oneida County. Supposed to get 3-6 of wet snow Monday but no real cold after that (it is March so...
