    Really good weather news released today....regarding next WINTER

    I tend to agree they typically blow short range forecasts but this season most of the short range was quite accurate in Waushara County.

    TIME TO CALL IT ?

    I'm glad I hit it the week we had snow (389 miles). Haven't used a snow shovel or snow blower since Jan 13th. Grease it up, treat the fuel & look forward to next season. Boats are ready, but C.O.E. has Winnebago pool down to 1.58' as of this morning. Full pool is 2.9' - 3.0'. This drawdown is...

    How many folks are taking the money they are not spending and saving for a side by side??

    No use for ATV. Like Whitedust, it becomes boat season.

    Waushara County

    Chili dump, that's right. They said they had a 3rd by the bridge checking it out. As I continued west I passed him heading east on an older sled if I recall correctly. So I guess all 3 were out tinkering.

    There were 2 old guys in a Tucker (without the drag in tow) putting up a hand painted sign pointing to the warming shelter at a road crossing about a mile or 2 east of the big Neenah Creek bridge. They told be they would be out grooming Thursday. Also, I saw a poster at Foxy's. Didn't pay too...

Up to this point, trails were Good. After a mile or 2 into Marquette, things went...

    Waushara County

    Today I headed east, passing by Pine River & Poy Sippi just to the south. Overall, trails were Good with a periodic Fair until just east of Poy Sippi cemetery. At this point, the trails leave the woods & hills and become farm fields & swamp. From the cemetary east to Borth, I'd have to say Fair...

    Waushara County

    I don't know about west of the river. This is my 3rd winter here, 1st was a bust, last year poor. That being said, I've been coming to this area over 50 years in the summer. So now I'm exploring via snowmobile.

Some had been dragged, some drifted but overall a...

    Trail openings

    I'd say a few inches of frost in Waushara. All the lakes opened at Christmas, small ones are frozen over but certainly none are safe.
