Camel Riders is just about 3 mi. from us...you should have made dinner...best food in the U.P....you pay for it but it's still the best...they're closed right now because of the panicdemic

Thanks, we keep it on the bucket list as we eventually plan on doing a backpack trip from Northern WI through the UP and back.

Stayed at the red Fox Inn maybe a dozen times, one time I rode with some fellows that were stationed there in the 80s, they had some interesting stories, supposedly that Air Force Base was one of the closest to the Soviet union if you flew up and over the Arctic Circle, they told me there would be B-52’s that would fly up and go to the Arctic Circle on 24 hour missions being refueled in flight waiting for the go ahead from the president to drop the nukes at the Soviet Union if it got to that, kind of some scary stuff if you ask me, when the SALT and SALT 2 treaties were enacted and the Soviet Union disbanded, they weren’t such a threat to us and eventually the base was closed, in the tailwinds restaurant they had an interesting display showing info and photos of the base in action, in it’s hay day there were supposedly thousands of people involved in running that base

I made a post in another thread about getting a group of riders together, one person hauling a chuck wagon, going to some place, building a bonfire and having some fun like they use to do in the old days of snowmobiling but it was dismissed.

Why have a dedicated food guy? We have had many a fire and a woods fire . Cook some brats eat some sides have some pop and beer . . 5 guys 5 tunnel bags you can haul a lot of food if you want. But a basic sausage and buns and a fist full of gas station condiments is all a crew needs .
I see a lot of crews on the trails doing just that at trail shelters every yr . We do it a lot at out local shelter and at least 1 or 2 times a yr in the deep woods . Always a good time even with some cheep dogs and buns from a gas station
