Plenty of Riding to be had.

[kip]

Probably got about 8 inches of very dense snow over the weekend. There would be excellent riding to be had yet and no worry of heavy traffic. It looks like the middle of winter out there yet, so if any of you want to continue to scratch that itch now would be a great time to do that!

Kip being a veteran of the area what trails are still legal to ride?

I can't say that any other than the multi use trails are legal to ride like the Nichols trail. However they've extended the season in the past so I don't see anyone having a issue riding what is still good. 3 days in a row I've had riders come from Sidnaw and they were all happy. We've certainly lost some since my original post but there's riding to be had.

Thank you Kip much appreciated. Do you think I would be able to park in your lot and ride from there on Saturday?

So can we ride from Mass to Houghton on 3?

 

[hermie]

Yes that is what I am doing tomorrow

 

[hermie]

They also are having races tomorrow in the park

 

[Sweep800]

Thanks,
What Park?

 

[hermie]

I don't know if it's necessary a park or a runway. It's close to Pat's. The one question I don't know yet is can you make it past south range on 3. The snow always gets a little thinner just past south range for a bit then gets deeper again until you get to Houghton.

Thanks. I’m heading up to SG now but not sure I’ll pull the trigger and head up further or not tomorrow morning.

 

[hermie]

Heading up to St.Getmain myself right now. We are heading up in the morning for one last ride.

Not on a sled, but my son and I are heading to the Yoop for the day Saturday. Breakfast at Suomi, waterfalls, Lake Superior, Victoria Dam, Krupps and maybe the drags in South Range.

 

[Sweep800]

Hermie, where you park up there?

Hermie, where you park up there?

You can park at Pats, Merritts, or where m26&m38 meet there’s a small lot but requires a little ditch run to trail 3.

Thanks Indy, I wound up not going anyway

I ended up parking in Mass. Should of probably went north of the bridge but I always prefer to be on the sled over sitting in the truck. We ended up with 90 miles not bad for April. They went out and closed all the gates on any trail that's not the BN trail. First I have seen that in the few times I have ridden in April. The 109 they have saw horses up with trail closed sign. From everything I saw people are respecting the closed gates. Still pretty solid base overall but trails took a little beating with the sun out in the afternoon but that's is to be expected. That will be a wrap for me on this season. The good part is made 2 trips with the sled actually not giving me any issues.
