Why not rent a small moving truck and get everything in one trip? I would think it could be done for $300.

How is he going to get around the Northwoods need car to go anywhere?[/QUOTE)....................................................... 4 wheelers and sleds are a way of life here, you see them at the grocery stores, dollar general, wal mart, DMV, everywhere. Also we have a taxi cab service. One employer runs a shuttle bus from Ironwood to Action Floors in Mercer. We also have the Gogebic County Tranit co that runs all over. My neighbor Bob and my father law use 4 wheelers only, summer and winter.....One other option he has possably is to get a job with me at the concrete company i work for and i wil drive........Gary and Frosty I will ask him if a couple weeks work or earlier Frosty if you go up?

Sent you a PM back, don't think I was clear before, if he's looking for space on a trailer I can't help, if he has a trailer and is looking for someone to pull it then maybe it will work out.

Yeah true in the Northwoods of Wisconsin. Just heard on the radio that Vilas County Wi may finally let 4 wheelers use public roads and streets. Some people avoid the whole vehicle thing cause Michigan Insurance rates are high. Daughter 4? o boy i got three of them at home still, which is why i ride an ancient sled ...lol :) O no sorry Gary he does not have a trailer. Frosty you up for it?

Vilas backed down on Atvs in Phelps on County A now Atvs can connect to Forest county trails in Nelma. I don't like riding snomos on any paved roads just not fun even tho snow covered Nov thru March. I'm not sure Atvs will use paved roads?? Time will tell 25mph Atv on road not fun to me. idk???

When does he need to be up there? I was just told today at work that I am on mandatory 6-12's for the next 2 weeks. It kinda sucks, but the money is needed! After that I should be open. If something changes, I will let you know.
