    looking at ski doos, need advise

    If you are going with one of the 2 in this thread I would go with the 600. If it were me I would see if you can find a 14 or newer and get what they call the xs chassis. Much easier to get hood off to do maintenance. Some 13 came in the xs too.

    I feel some of your pain. This stuff is incredibly full of moisture. Imagine how deep it would be if it was a drier snow. We would of ended up with over 15". Tried to use snowblower earlier today I hear a clunk and see a black piece flying in the air . I pick it up and it's a piece of my auger...

    I am afraid you are going to be correct. If you watch the radar it spins up that way and disappears. I was really hoping to get the 5-8 so that maybe trails could of opened up. It's not looking good on solid week of cold then back to the same pattern we have been stuck in all winter. 😤😡😡🤬

    Time will tell if all the trails are down to dirt tomorrow then it wasn't if not then it was. There is not any frost in the ground. Warm wet snow and warm ground underneath is never a good combination for making a good trail base. Hopefully the cold air last night firmed it all up because if not...

    Yeah they want the ground to firm up so it doesn't go straight down to mud. Wet snow and warm ground doesn't make for a good snowmobile trail.

    Hopefully they hold off until tomorrow for McHenry. Let the cold come in first and firm it up. I think Walworth would of been smart to do the same thing. I am surprised Walworth opened they are normally smart about these kind of things

    Wisconsin snowmobile trail pass

    If you belong to a club which hopefully you do go to AWSC website and purchase for discounted pass. You can print receipt or do what I did and do a screen shot.

    Around 6" so far in McHenry. Still coming down hard.love to see this spread out a lot more and go up north. There is a lot of effort in putting in the trails in northern IL and southern WI so it's going to be nice to see people out using the trails around here. I can't believe I am even thinking...

    Total bust here so far. Was looking like some of the best trails in 3 years down here to trails not even opening. Hard to believe how easily they close schools now days. When I was a youngster in school they would wait until morning to make sure the weather guessers were correct. Then I would...

    What trip(s) have you cancelled so far?

    Probably a little early on to cancel this trip. I think the lake snow guns are going to be rolling by end of the week.

    Justin Fields just poked the Bear!

    Sure do miss the rivalry it used to be. It was the must see game back in the day. Who can forget the hit list towels. At Justin understand what this game means just like Rodgers did. That's what this game was for years players talking trash all week at fans talking trash.

    What trip(s) have you cancelled so far?

    I am guessing the lake snow guns will get going starting the end of next week. We will have to see which way the winds blow and who gets what. That's looks like the best chance to get some trails going up here. Hurley and Mercer are out rolling and they have the best chance of anybody in...

    Yeah people are getting antsy to get out there. Not going to take much to get people to scratch that itch.

    Eagle River Derby Track 12-29-23

    Yeah pretty cool going on the web cam watching the truck make the track. I have always wanted to go and with no snow, maybe this will be the year I go. I have a hard time watching other people ride there sleds when I can be out riding mine. Same reason I never bothered to go to any radar runs. I...

    Packers and Bears on Sunday!

    I think it's going to be a good game. Bears are playing much better than when they first met. Keeping the Packers out of the playoffs is a nice incentive. What Bear fan doesn't want that. 😁😁
