Midnight the 24th. Most clubs have stopped grooming during the week so sounds about right to me.

The stomach flu SUCKS! Get well soon.

Hoping to ride to Long Lake WI from Phelps WI if the groom is decent Sunday morning 6 most of the way what’s 7 like? Which Long Lake restaurant has easy trail access and decent food? Thanks, Pete

Local weather forecasters are starting to minimize the ability for Superior to produce LES due to massive lake ice. They see 1-3 inchers now and then but no massive dumps. Are LES dumps on hold now or can other factors still turn on the snow guns? Thanks, Pete

Every so often you have to deal with Trail Hog Idiots. The ones I hate the most are the jerks that veer at you force you up the berm because they think they are creating more room for their pack. These yahoos are going to cause a bad accident someday or someone is going to circle back and slap...

I was out riding today cleaning up debris on trails and FRs from the ice storm. The trails have many drooper trees loaded with snow and ice that are blocking the trail. You will need to use the entire trail pick the most open tree arch to get thru the Twistys. It is very beautiful out there but...

The no call for defensive pass interference in the Saints / Rams game was horrible. Why not have a red flag no call or wrong call challenge once a game for the head coach? Seems logical to me and shouldn’t slow down the game pace that much. Wdut?

What are consequences of poor grooming on snowmobiling in general and all snowmobile support businesses?? I can tell you there is plenty of snow on trails from Phelps WI to Iron River, MI north to Lanse south to Watersmeet back to Phelps. It definitely is not if those areas have snow it is the...

We have a group ready good to go Saturday so we are trying to piece together a best condition route. Trail 2 e/w Watersmeet to Iron River 107 n/s Watersmeet to Kenton 8 e/w Kenton to Sidnaw 15 Pipeline n/s Sidnaw to Lanse In town Lanse 15n/s Iron River to Sidnaw Hopefully we can piece together...

70 to 75% of happening are pretty good odds! All that pink covers all of Vilas as well as WUPMI. Fingers and toes crossed for this storm!

I have yet to get my head in one but if as revolutionary as the first Mod it could be really good and sell out quick. I’m still using 2 original mods before the mod 1 lol. I bought 2 right away then doo started limiting 1 to a customer. The Oxygen has a new trick electric shield says it won’t...

Seems like crickets on Bruce??

Lost my regular weekday riding bud to a day job so looking for a new riding bud. I’m based from Phelps but will ride anywhere in Vilas including 3 lakes but prefer the UP up to Greenland east to Republic and south to Iron River, MI. I prefer twistys and FRs try to keep grades as connectors but...

Is there excitement and anticipation for this??

Unreal skim ice this morning on the lake never seen that in 15 years in October.

3-4 inches of rain forecast this week during an already wet Fall. Brushing is going to be tough this year with the swamps full and unless we get a very dry period in November we are going to need lots of cold to set up wet areas. Here’s hoping we get dry and cold in November so think cold.

Phelps first accumulation snow about 3/4 of an inch wee AM hours and sleeting now.

No one has asked this year but thought I would chime in. PI reported 80%and I would guess Phelps is between 50-60% which covers east and west Vilas. If interested in Vilas peak color it will be close by next weekend. Phelps has lots of maples so lots of red this year which is very beautiful and...

Anybody get caught up in this? Police looked to be pulling off all vehicles towing boats traveling south. Had boat trailers disconnected appeared to be impounding. 2 teams about quarter mile apart 1 flagging the other sending vehicles to the side. Boat trailer inspection???

I’m getting phone calls from my snowplow contractor that Vilas and UP is in the target for 3 storms and 20 plus inches of snow Thursday thru Saturday. The big one hitting Friday night thru Saturday. My contractor needs to line up his resources since contracts run out March 31 each season. I told...
