    Crickets…

    It's a short hike from trail 8 on the West side of US-41, just before the trail turns East to go under the highway. Its also a hiking trail from the roadside park which is right there. There are signs, I don't think sleds are allowed or would want to ride on the hiking trail, but I think the...

    I found a spot higher than mount arvon

    Route to the summit of Mt. Curwood from a ski trip in April, early 1980's. Note "H.P." arrow on the tree indicating route to the high point that Mt. Curwood was considered to be at one time. Also note the lack of a gozzillion off trail snowmachine tracks back in "the good old days." Summit of...

    Modular homes

    Dickinson "Bayport". The version with half-log siding can be seen in the Iron Mountain model village. This one traveled on two trailers all the way from Iron Mountain to Lac La Belle including a trip across the lift bridge. Nothing fancy but it is home to me.

    500 Year Flood In Vilas

    Interesting. My maps show an outlet on the South end of Pioneer Lake (Pioneer Creek) which flows into the Wisconsin River about a mile West of Conover. I would guess that the power company has a dam somewhere along that stretch, but I could be wrong. Not far downstream, the outlet of Lower...

    Vilas Lake Ice

    Calm enough yesterday evening, but way too warm for ice. This evening it is snowing lightly with a gentle breeze, but still 33F. It is very similar here to last year at this time. It was nice enough to take kayaks out on the lake in December last year. It's about to change, but unfortunately...

    Trail Cam 2 looks like it has been groomed

    Trail looked freshly groomed at Delaware this afternoon. The secondary trails were not groomed yet, and might not have a good enough base anymore. We only got 1-2" down by the lake at Lac La Belle, and Copper Harbor got about the same.
