    Calumet County

    Does nobody ride here? Spent the last 2 days racking up 180 miles of perfection. Trails on the west side of the Fox valley and west side of lake Winnebago don’t hold a candle to this. Can’t believe they’re closing these trails in the morning

    Been a rough month

    This sport has been testing my patience lately… little man totalled his ace 600 few weeks ago. Coming back from lake of the clouds into silver city where the unplowed section of the road ends by the ski hill, ran into the back of mom, pushed mom’s sled into my mom’s sled. Was able to get the...

    The annual 24-25 how many miles thread!

    Well… where ya at? 1,100 for myself. Shaping up to be some great late season riding, unfortunately not a ton of free weekends coming up for me, but looks like some closer counties are opening increasing my chances of some day trips.

    EUP report!

    What a wild 36 hours! Left my house at 5am Saturday morning on what was supposed to be a 4.25 hr drive to our launch point halfway between Seney and Grand Marais. After getting stuck behind multiple snowplows and dealing with crap roads it turned into 5.5 hours. Plan was to head up towards GM...

    NOT an April fools joke!

    The storm tomorrow showed rain for the past week on the forecast models… now out of nowhere today it’s turned to snow. Just listened to Steve Beylon say Green Bay could see a foot or more on the local news and I was dumbfounded as I did not see this coming. He said all the forecast models...

    It’s not over!

    At pine stump as we speak. Started about halfway between Seney and Grand Marais and headed this way. Pretty darn good for bare ground a few days ago!

    Refrigerators

    Is there a go-to brand preferred? Every year at tax time I upgrade something in my house and this year it’s time to replace my 9 yr old Frigidaire “professional series” refrigerator that came with the house when it was built. Makes a ton of weird noises, the latch system doesn’t work...

    Great trip up nor… I mean down south!

    Had a great extended weekend down in northwestern Dane, and southwestern Columbia counties! We stayed on the east side of Lodi at Quality Inn right off the interstate. Right next to a gas station, trail runs right to it. Put on about 200 miles in 2.5 days. Little limited how far we can ride as...

    Carter/Togwotee

    Many here have been accustomed to Carters Corner updates yearly for quite some time. Sadly, this post is to inform those that he has passed away. Togwotee won’t be the same without you! RIP Carter

    Milwaukee snow show is no more

    Snowmobile USA just announced they’re done with the show at the Milwaukee location due to a lack of vendors. With Kens Sports leaving the show and doing their own a few years ago, that kind of put the final nail in the coffin. Sad for area snowmobilers but the writing was on the wall...

    Lost a member

    From what I’m seeing on Facebook, sad to say it looks like we lost a member “snowdance” late Thursday night. Pat had gotten out of snowmobiling a few years back but was still very active on this site and was an avid motorcyclist. I believe he started the 3 old Alaska guys thread and posted...

    Polaris is brilliant

    About time we have something like this in this day and age! Polaris released an online marketplace for all new and used dealer inventory. No more searching from dealer to dealer to find sled inventory. https://polarisxchange.com/

Stayed in Ironwood one trip, 3 trips to St Germain, 1 trip to Eagle River, 1 trip to Ashland, and 1 trip to Bergland this year. Few day trips to ride Shawano langlade...
