Had a float plane do a touch and go on January 3rd and water skiers on January 2nd. Where’s winter at???

Yea this is ridiculous down here.  I can see us having deep freeze in February to make up for it

It’s bullshit! Was going to head up to Brimley but not getting good reports.

Yikes 

Dripper says you're wrong 

The DNR is closing trails down in certain areas until further notice. People we know were just in Brimley 2 days ago and had to turn around from impassable trails and water holes. Looks like you need to be well west of Marquette and that's tough to do from here on a three or four day weekend trip. Hell, I won't even have a chance to test my IMP800 sled before the first race at Houghton Lake this year

Road that same sled for about 25 miles last week. It just ate up the deep slush on the lake we were on. Very impressed! That was also with my 275lbs brother in law on the back and pulling a bunch of gear.

Yeah.  We broke trail for 5km or so in 2 feet on hilly terrain. I was quite impressed. Girls were sure we'd get stuck 😂

 

My niece kept asking me if I knew where we were. My answer was always " no "!😂😂😂

When I retire and am spending more time at camp,I can see myself owning something like that. The Yammi dealer up by me always has a few of those two stroke,fanners,with low range in stock. I guess those things can go anywhere,but aren’t as comfortable as the bearcat or Doo?

Oh I know, I'm just pissed off at the conditions close to home (4-5 hour drive or less). Even if there's a chance I still get excuses from riding buddies

We only put 30 miles on it for a little tryout and can't wait to put some miles on it.

This is the new crew  :sad:  Old crew I rode with from the mid 90's up to 5 years ago we'd chase the snow and sleep wherever we could just to get out and ride.
