    Justin Fields just poked the Bear!

    Probably the end of Flus and Fields I would think we will know about Flus by mid week. Bears have to beat Packers and can’t do it so look forward to a bunch of good draft choices and FAs on the way and new had coach likely imo.

    Trail openings

    If they open doesn’t mean trails are anything but rideable certainly not good conditions early season at best. If you are renting a sled I suppose it doesn’t matter if you overheat ,tear up carbides and hyfax but zero fun factor for someone like me. Imo you need snow to enjoy riding...

    What trip(s) have you cancelled so far?

    Does he realize Vilas has not opened trails yet? Whoops forgot to hit post earlier today. If does open best expected conditions are early season which is tuff on hyfax and carbides doesn’t matter if rental sled. I suspect local money is getting impatient and will open soon but doesn’t mean it’s...

    Justin Fields just poked the Bear!

    This will be a good game to measure both team’s progress. Bears are playing good ball the last 7 games after a horrible start. I didn’t think it was possible but Flus has the D playing very well since they traded and signed for Sweat. Fields has played well since coming back from injured thumb...

    Small Towns

    Young people for the most part don’t move to the Northwoods for employment primarily because there is so little opportunity. I’m sure a few may have come north but for the most part I only know younger folks who left due to little or no opportunities. They have done well in the Fox Cites and...

    I get it Mezz I always said don’t count your snowflakes until they hit the ground. Certainly we need a groomable base that can be packed , groomed and ridden in. Then we have something that gets better or worse depending on additional snow, traffic and temperature. As I said before think...

    What trip(s) have you cancelled so far?

    It’s catch as catch can without John’s forecast and then share here. Not a lot we can do about it but hope for a significant change in weather patterns get some grooming accomplished and build a base. Then we have something to talk about with trail reports. For me pull up a comfortable chair and...

    What trip(s) have you cancelled so far?

    I think there are different storm systems being discussed here. #1 this weekend is tracking thru the south then heading up the east coast. National weather channels and local Midwest tv not forecasting any snow for WI or MI over this weekend. #2 storm follows #1 but too far out in the Pacific to...

    1/2/24

    Yep that’s what I’m hearing down here too at this time but can always change. I’ll touch bases with you next week see if January is doable as planned.

    January 2, 2024

    Weather channel and Fox weather sees El Niño pattern holding for January. Both channels bullish on snow for east coast followed by a rain storm that might get interesting in Chicago. All this happens next week so way early in the forecast. 🤷‍♂️

    Hunter ceiling fan and light question

    Maybe if the connector plugs are the same. Just remember the longer the pole the chances of imbalance are probable and you will need to weight and balance. FJB has ceiling fans on his energy hit list and regulations so expect price increases.

    What trip(s) have you cancelled so far?

    Imo you have to be thinking November conditions, warm temps, ground not frozen and lakes are open along with swamps. Les snowbelts are best chance for snow but will be jammed with traffic so darn difficult to plan anything in these conditions. Imo make plans and reservations with places with...

    Lessons from John

    It’s an early November weather pattern waiting for the flip not closing in on January! We are way behind on a groomable trail base in the UP and trails in WI are routed thru swamps and over lakes. Realistically it will take some very cold weather then snow to get the groomers out. I don’t see it...

    Favorite stops from back in the day..

    The snow dust created on some of the road trails in Clark county by ATVs is incredible. Combining sleds and ATVs use on snow is like horse and buggy on the interstate with race cars. Crazy combination.

    Septic: Would this be a good move?

    Buddy used to put straw on his tank and field every winter. His cottage was never meant to be used year around but he never had a problem so straw sure can’t hurt.
