    Just installed them on the little dudes 19 TNT 600 before the trip (I rode that sled on my early morning solo rips). We tried riding out of Conover a couple weeks ago and it was thin and bumpy and he couldn’t go fast enough in the conditions to cool the sled, and had the temp light go off, so I...

    Can’t believe I forgot to mention, saw a wolf on trail 8 early this morning near old 51 rd and Hoffman rd in the Gresham lake area this morning! Came over a small hill, staring right at me in the middle of the trail and I was on the throttle pretty good at the hillcrest to pop the skis and he...

    Last post from our trip! First pic from a little 20-25 mile solo rip this morning to the south, second pic from a 40 mile loop to Mani Waters. Took 2 west across and then followed hwy 51 on 8 back east to BJ. Near town in BJ was getting roughed up around 1pm which is to be expected on Saturday...

    Photo dump from today! Took a 40 mile solo cruise this morning on all freshly groomed from BJ. 8 west and south, 10 east, then up 11/15. All fantastic. Then with the fam went north on 15, east on 6, and up 5 to bents camp for lunch. Came back down 6 and west on 8 back to BJ for another 60 miles...

    Brought the little man up this morning! (I should probably stop calling him that since we’re the same height now). Started in BJ and went east across 8 and down to Star Lake. Stopped at Stillwaters for a soda and to warm up, then west across 11. And back up 15 for a total of around 50 miles...

    Most reports I’ve read have all reported around a foot across Vilas

    If I had to guess, few inches maybe near Appleton? So much blowing and drifting.

    Surprised BJ groomed everything last night. I’m assuming, to smooth everything out before the snow and cold. Debating going out for another small ride before we leave. We did run down to Stillwaters in star lake last night. Boy what a difference in snow depth in the ~5 mile run from the 7/8...

    75 miles today so far. Took trail 2 west out of Boulder junction then up trail 6 to Presque Isle and had lunch at the PI Pub. Trails were fantastic at that point. Then took trail 6 southeast out of PI after lunch, that stretch was pretty brutal, too much traffic and last nights groom can’t hold...

    I don’t get social security to buy my sleds like the fine folk of Spooner!

    Calling all snowmobilers!!

    I feel attacked 😂 club baseball monthly dues are more than my sled payment. We’ll be spending Memorial Day and 4th of July weekends out of state for tournaments. If it sounds crazy, it’s because it is.

    Hermie, passed you around noon today just west of Sayner! We trailered to conover to get the little man back in the saddle. Made it to the burnt bridge and the sleds were overheating. Base was thin and very bumpy on trail 8 along hwy K. Due to the bumps, the little man couldn’t go fast enough...

    Calling all snowmobilers!!

    Have to ask, what is your club? 60 miles sounds like A LOT for a club south of hwy 8. Most clubs around me do under 20, my local town club does 8 miles, really should join forces with the neighboring clubs at this point.
