    Any recommendations for staying near ispheming or republic area?

    There used to be a hotel with cabins next door to it in Ishpeming, I suspect they are still there, they catered to sleds. Gas station is right in front of them and a McDonalds. I stayed there a lot when I worked for Johnson Controls at NMU, great people.

    Time for a New Helmet?

    I had issues with my RCA plug last year, it kept blowing fuses. I will be tearing into it next week, if I can't fix it I will definitely be keeping my BV2S until I do! Thank you for the excellent feedback!

    Time for a New Helmet?

    How do you like the Oxygen? I have had at least 4 or 5 BV2S and loved them but I picked up a leftover last year and it's not great, like my old ones. I wanted to buy an Oxygen but my buddies said it's really hot on warm days? I thought they came out with a fix for it though.

    TOYOTA SNOWMOBILE OUT ON THE TRAIL SUNDAY

    We came across a guy pulling a two place trailer on the trail heading out of Sidnaw into the gorge, he was buried, took us forever to help him out of the jam he got himself into lol! He said he was following the GPS, which I am sure he was, common sense needed to kick in a lot sooner than when...
