Are things better or worse after this storm?

Worse
My info from Conover/L O L, says forget it. Bad deal storm results!!! Trails Suck Bad!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Areas of the UP look to have gotten plenty of snow.. Have reservations in Houghton Sat and Sun night so it all depends on where we start riding from. We may ride from Arbor Vitae to Houghton. Then up to Copper on Sunday..back home Monday.
Worst case we may need to trailer a bit north (Bruce Crossing). Anyways, I have a few friends who live scattered between Minocqua and Houghton and so we will determine the starting point in the morning.
Btw- they are panning the trails in and around Minocqua ..etc..

In many cases, you can look at their profile info in the upper right of the posts to see where they are at. Skiroule is up in N. MN at Lake of the Woods.
Here is a snowcover map. I know it takes a lot more than just the amount of snow on the ground to determine true conditions, such as water on the trails, ice, grooming, etc... But the info should be of some help.

Better here, but only because we had no snow. I can’t believe it, but they have me out opening gates. We only have 3 inches on the ground here

Tuscobia open? Do you know if the Chip Flowage is staked yet.
Better...while we did get some rain, that hurt the snow cover a bit...its still snowing here in vilas county (ldf)...the colder weather has frozen things up tight, after a slushy wet day yesterday...since we didnt get alot of wet, heavy snow...the ice on the lakes that weren't quite ready...now might be with this colder weather...and more snow in the forecast with much colder air for next week will be a really good thing to get these swampy areas froze up...bottom line is you can ride in some areas now, and you couldn't before...it will be thin out there, there will be icy corners, and some wet areas, may not be frozen...but you can ride...just dont expect pristine conditions.
Better in northern MN.
Elf has been pretty quiet. Thinking his area got pounded and he's out riding.
We are heading up tonight. Had to work all week to get end of year trucks completed. I saw Finland was the winner with 24" from this storm. I'll be sure to post some pictures!
Have a great time.
Do you still have a Motel 6 in Cloquet, MN?
As soon as I saw the City name in print I heard the song with Tom Bodett saying "we'll leave the light on for you".

The Tuscobia is a long way from me, not sure. Chippewa Flowage is also a ways away and don't have any info on that. I'm 15 NW of Spooner in Burnett County.
