    New truck options

    I made the jump back to Ford in June 2023, found a used 2021 F-150 Lariat 5.0 V-8 crew cab with way more options than just about any truck needs! I’m pretty happy with it as I’m consistently getting 20 MPG highway with it unloaded. I feel like one aspect of the truck that has been a real...

    What trip(s) have you cancelled so far?

    We canceled for this weekend in Eagle River, we have another planned for Manitowish Waters for the end of this month which I’m starting to wonder if that one will be a possibility!

    What Will You Be Riding This Winter?

    I will be riding the 2020 Skidoo Grand Touring 900 ACE and the 2002 Yamaha SX Viper 700 triple 2 stroke. Both run great, would love a Sidewinder but I don’t see that happening anytime soon as I bought a new to me used 2021 Ford F-150 Lariat Crew Cab truck to haul the snowmobiles.

    John Dee

    I am saddened to read the news of John's passing. He touched so many of us with this site and his open sharing of his life with Nora, Grace and four legged furry family members. I will forever be grateful for his contribution to the snowmobile community and how he brought many of us together via...

    Finally some real EV/Truck stats and...... WOW!!!

    There is a YouTube video out there focusing on towing with the new all electric Ford Lightning, the guy testing it loads an old Model A or T on a trailer & proceeds to pull it back to his house & the range dropped to 80 miles within a short amount into the trip. Sorry I don’t have the link, but...

    Prayers for John

    I did see the post on Facebook about John also, I don’t visit here as often in the off season, but I’m sending him speedy recovery vibes here like I did there. Get well soon John!!!

    Milwaukee snow show is no more

    I have to say that I’m definitely NOT surprised that the Milwaukee Show is done. It has been declining for years! I have attended that show for years, back in the day before the new building it took up multiple buildings and there were so many deals to be had! Once the new building was...

    So.......I started a project, My new Garage!

    Wow! Awesome job and very impressive! I’m 50 years old & couldn’t imagine taking on a project of that size. I would need to seriously work on my physical condition to ever be close to try to build something of that magnitude, that & I’m not very good at construction. Congrats on your dream...

    NW Vilas Update 3/21

    Thanks for the real world update, my wife and I are tentatively coming to Manitowish Waters for the weekend and leave on Tuesday next week. Unfortunately my wife sounded a little on the sick side this morning, so we are "playing it by ear". Hopefully we can make it happen!

    Pictures and Conditions from Price County

    This right here is what I call my "backyard". I have a cabin just south of Fifield that I purchased in 2001. I know all of these trails extremely well & really enjoy riding them. My wife & I got engaged on the covered bridge, it is one of her favorite places up there! Unfortunately I have not...

    Pine Lake Lodge Mission Helmet swapped out and taken

    The Mission fits great, it didn’t take long to break in & I’m really happy with it. It’s pricey, but definitely worth it!

    BRP Exome Radiant Helmet

    I made the switch to the CKX Mission Carbon Fiber helmet from my 2nd Skidoo Modular. The Modular’s were great, but I was very tired of the fighter pilot mask as I call it, I attempted to add an electric shield to my last modular & found one of the shield screws was seized & I basically destroyed...

    SE WI - Walworth - Waukesha - Racine - Kenosha - Jefferson Counties

    As much as it nice to ride around home locally, to me it gets boring within an hour. With 99% of trails being on corn fields & the whole pin it, then stop & cross a road. I have just resorted to being a snow chaser & head up to the north woods of Wisconsin or the U.P.!

    We got Hammered overnight.....8 plus and still snowing

    There is a coincidence, I also live in Rock County and my wife & I have our camper on a permanent/seasonal site just down the road from Castle Rock Lake. Most of our weekends in the summer are spent there & on the lake!
