    Overnight trip from Phelps/Conover, where to?

    Rode these trails in maybe 2010 and they were really nice as described. Just better know where gas is and take a snack and some water. Very scenic and some flat and fast trails.

    I remember that and we got stuck in one of those traps a little north of Minocqua.

    Your Chain is similiar to ours with 10 lakes or so and channels between them. Our law enforcement would rather harass boaters in a no wake zone for causing a little more than a ripple. My daughter had just passed her online test 7 years ago and she was driving in one of these no wake zones and...

    I have found if you email the picture to yourself and then download or copy and paste it from email it works, shouldn't have to do it but it works for me. FYI

    That would be a start, just following the rules.

    Spoke with a guy from Hurley yesterday and he told me that they have measured 60" of snow already in November. He has had to shovel his roof twice and he said that never happens in November. while they have had all that snow he said they had to go to Ashland and there was grass showing there.

    It's a great place up here. It's possible for a ride this winter, let me know when and I'll see if I can make it. Thanks for the invite and I agree, Happy Wife, Happy Life, wherever that might be. I'm not on any other social media sites other than linkedin and there are some great people on this...

    I too bought an item from Cotosen, They charged me right away and it took at least 6 weeks to the merchandise. The quality wasn't what it appeared on their website. I wouldn't buy from them again either.

    I kind of gathered that you would like to back in the Northwoods but as you say, Family does come into play. We have settled into the community, My wife still has to work for benefits and she now has a great little job 32 hours a week Monday through Thursday with 3 day weekends so we can go...

    Overnight trip from Phelps/Conover, where to?

    Looking at where you are basing out of and that you are traveling with wives a good trip might be to leave Conover and head south through Eagle River down through Sugar Camp, west toward Newbold and then up 47 toward Lake Tomahawk, from there its just a short ride up to Minocqua where you can...

    Happy for you, I think there is respect here from people who understand the definition of the word. Like I said there is room for everyone, just ask for a little common sense to be used.

    I attend meetings in our township of MW, as of right now nothing has been decided and that has been status quo forever regarding wake boats. I'm not a huge fan of the DNR and their overeach period. The town has to be mindful that that tourists/locals bring $ to the area during the summer and...

    WHPH, thanks for the great perspective from a womans view. You are spot on and I agree that many more women would enjoy the sport if they eased into it like you suggested. I have ridden with guys that want to call it a day because the trails are too rough or it's too cold so it's important to...

    We currently have 2 degrees this morning and have 6" of snow on the ground in MW area. 4" of heavy wet snow fell on Tuesday followed by an inch of drier snow, this was good for building a base but the lakes now have that on top of maybe an inch or two of solid ice so take that for what it's...

    If you lived on the lake and wake board boats consistently came within 200 ft of your pier and shoreline I guarantee you would have a different opinion of them. I agree that it's everyone's lake and they have a right to enjoy it but so does everyone else.

    Great place, I think they are closed one day during the week, it was either Tuesday or Wednesday so we rode back down to Headwaters in BJ.

    Overnight trip from Phelps/Conover, where to?

    I would say either go north to Copper Harbor or west toward Hayward, WI. As far as miles to ride per day you might want to keep it at around 100-150 miles if you are beginners. A shorter trip would be the Casino in Lac Du Flambeau and you could stay in Minocqua or at the Casino.The earlier you...

    Marty, Thanks for your opinion on snowmobiling in the Manitowish Waters area. I have been coming up here for 45 years and we bought property here in 2015. I have never met any anti snowmobile people that have businesses in this area and we know many of the bar and restaurant owners personally...
