    Thanks yes I was really excited that we got the ride as well. My friend that I took with, it was his first time coming up north so I was definitely trying to make it memorable. So since we rode Friday and didn't feel like Saturday we would find any rideable snow. We left Rockland headed down...

    Trail 1/8 from Burgland was very thin on the way out. The way back was basically muddy snow. Trail 102 a little rough (but decent) 90% snow covered. The way back same bumps but noticeably thinner with many watery spots and muddy spots. Down to about 75% snow coverage. Trail 11(South Boundary...

    Thanks for all the info. I got busy with work yesterday and packing to leave. Left at 5 Thursday morning got up to Rockland, MI. Rockland to Mass City was rideable... But I don't want to ride it again! It was any 50/50. Some areas you were leaving a great ski impression in the snow. The other...

    Thanks this is what I think I was looking for basically. By chance do you know what the base is looking like? is it a couple of inches? Or are the skis sinking right to the bottom? Pictures online look like they could be ridable. but it's hard to get a sense of how deep things are...

    Seeing that was the last snow with the incoming weather what are your thoughts on riding Thursday night through Saturday? Lots of pictures online look like it could be ok, not the best but ok to ride... So many reports of doom and gloom. It's Hard to tell what is what... Any advice for a 9hr...

    New Journal is up

    Nora, it was nice to see the entry and the updates. Skyler or Gary, I'm not sure if Nora checks the board much but, if this is helpful, maybe one of you can make sure Nora sees this and maybe her neighbor she talked about the tractor can help make some adjustments... In the journal, Nora...

    Trailer padlocks

    You have that single grab handle in the center that pulls up and then unlocks the bar on the inside correct? The downfall is the suitcase size lock that locks the handle down. Two of my friend had their sleds taken from their NEO trailer. One sled was found other never was. I like Snoden's...

    I know that no one many really care about Indiana but, I thought the info would be nice to give a good picture of the entire area. I'll use Gary, IN because I'm sure everyone know where Gary is at... 1"-2" wind blown. However, farther East they received more in fact all the Indiana trails...

    Trailer padlocks

    Running short on time I did not read all the replies... (Sorry I will later I'm sure...) dfattack and others I had that same lock for years as well. I had them replaced by Masterlock more than once. Finally, they asked me what I was lubricating it with. WD-40 other oils that type of thing... I...

    Illinois Tolls Increase Again

    The Skyway Bridge, Cline Ave Bridge, and our Toll Road are why 80/94 is packed all the time. Everyone avoiding the charge if they can... I will take the Toll Road for about 5 miles if traffic is bad on 80/94 (which is all construction season, April through Nov it seemed like this year...) I...

    Site Issues

    Same for me today and yesterday. The first thing I thought was boy, is that not some luck... Finally some snow and now the site is down... Nora's going to have issues to deal with right off the bat at the peak traffic times (I'm sure the amount of user traffic picks up when snow is actually on...

    Illinois Tolls Increase Again

    The news report said that you wouldn't have to get a new sticker until your old transponder expired. I looked at mine today and apparently it expired in 2022... It's been working just fine... LOL As a side note be careful in New York. I was out in Buffalo and Niagara Falls a number of years ago...

    Illinois Tolls Increase Again

    Great! Wasn't the plan to only keep the tolls till the road was paid for? Yeah right... The only thing that you can trust that Communist State of IL to do is find more ways to rip everyone off! The roads still suck and you still have tons of slow or barely moving traffic. My last trip at the...
