Here are a few ideas Switch, day one take the Taconite up to Lake Vermillion, take the Vermillion river north to Buyck, there may be a few open spots right near the VRT, keep going north on the river, there is a sign on it to exit and go to MelGeorges, stay somewhere in that area, Orr, Elephant Lake, or Crane Lake, day two in Voyageurs Nat'l Park, stay at Thunderbird or closer to I Falls, day 3 go south on the Blue Ox to Big Falls, fill with gas, take the John Beckel to Baudette, ride LOW to Oak Island and stay somewhere up there, day 4 take the west side lake trails down to Warroad, go west to Roseau, spend some time there at the Polaris Experience, ride south to TRF, spend the night there, day five head east to Goodridge, towards Grygla, east past the Fourtown store and follow the trail that runs a few miles north of Upper Red Lake, get on the lake as soon as you see it and hug the north shoreline to Waskish,, then down to Blackduck for the evening, day six head back north almost to Washkish and then east on the Lost River trails to Effie and then back to Grand Rapids. I don't think any days would be much over 200 miles and you would see lots of different terrain including some open country and groomed ditch running near TRF. As of now we need more snow but you are still a month away. The far northern areas should be ok already, it is the Grand Rapids area that is the worst for snow now. Let me know if you have any questions on anything and I am sure quite a few others will give there opinions.
