    Wisconsin snowmobile trail pass

    As others indicated, you need to buy online or at a retailer then keep your receipt (as proof you have the pass) until you get the sticker in the mail. Usually takes less than a week to get it in the mail.

    So Where Do We Go From Here?

    Nora - Thank you so much for this update. I did watch the last few minutes of the March 30th Snow Church video and it was very fitting. My prayers continue for you and Gracie and all of John's loved ones!

    Winter Tires

    I run Goodyear Assurance WeatheReady all weather tires on both of my SUVs. These have the 3 peak mountain snowflake symbol (winter rated) and perform way better that standard all season tires for sure. They are not quite as good as winter specific tires like Blizzaks but still do much better...

    John Dee

    I am so sad to hear of the news about John. I in shock still. Although I've never met John, I feel like I knew him as he was so open and sharing on this site. I know he was an amazing person in all ways. He will be greatly missed. I pray for blessings and comfort for Nora and Gracie and all...

    The Lodge At Crooked Lake in Siren is in a great location right off the Gandy Dancy trail as an option.

    Trailer Tire 18.5x8.5x8

    The Goodyear Endurance trailer tires don't come in the 8" size according to Goodyear's website. I'm finding that most of those little 8" rim diameter tires come mounted on the wheel. They have worked well for me for 20+ years as long as you make sure to change our your trailer tires every 5-8...

    Trailer Tire 18.5x8.5x8

    Here is a good example of a tire/wheel that would work for you. I use these exact tires on my old Triton 2-place trailer. They are load range C and have plenty of capacity for a two place snowmobile trailer. They take up to 50 psi of air. I would avoid load range B. Make sure to get the...

    Burnett County

    I was up there riding right after Christmas and the ice was plenty thick on the lakes but a some of slush in spots. Trails were only open South of Hwy 70 at that time and the lakes were ridable but not staked yet. I'm thinking they may be mostly staked by now. Let us know how your trip goes...

    The Gandy Gandy Dancer is straight and flat and you can use that to cover a lot of ground if you want. A loop I have liked in the past from Siren is 120 West from the airport to 45 North up to Danbury. The Fishbowl just North of Danbury is a great pitstop for food and a beverage. There are a...

    Yet Another weather WTF

    I don't often see an entire snow event in this area where temps remain below zero from my sometimes inaccurate recollection. It does happen on occasion though.

    Yet Another weather WTF

    The storm hit as advertised in the Minneapolis area with a good 6"-8". It never got above 0 during the entire snowfall. I was snow blowing this morning in an air temp of -13 a bit West of Minneapolis.
