Greetings Would-Be Sledders,

Haven’t posted an update for awhile because there wasn’t any need to and if I did it would have been a waste of your valuable time reading it.

We got about 2" of dry LES on Friday and two inches of that stuff does not a good trail make which is why we didn’t update. There’s no base and your ride would entail a lot of rock busting and not much fun in our estimation.

The outlook for the week is bad and good to some degree. The bad is the Sun is going to be in high gear until a system comes through Thursday. Current forecasts show that the event is going to skirt us to the north, go figure. But that is subject to change, we’ll have to wait and see.

Right now the trails are poor at best and could get worse depending on the Sun damage.

Next report Thursday.

Ride Often and Please Be Safe,
Keith, Sandy and The Girls.

Dear ATVers,

Please feel free to use the snowmobile trails that are marked "ORV ROUTE" on a yearly basis as us snowmobilers sure as hell can’t. We advise that you stick with 4 wheel drive machines with good mud flaps to handle the ice and mud and rain gear would be the appropriate attire to ward off the water from the low spots in the trail and the monsoons that we receive on a regular basis. Oh yeah suntan lotion is also a must when the rains do take a break, as temps tend to rise in these here parts. Welcome to the Michigan tropics!!!

Greetings Sledders,

Well I guess that about sums up what took place over the last week or so, hell, over the entire non-winter. It’s not that we are way off in snowfall totals cause we aren’t. It’s that constant barrage of the Fat Lady singing that’s killing us. Not sure who the SOB is that keeps scheduling her concerts but we are in cultural event overload.

The good news is it’s supposed to get sunny for a few more days. SAY WHAT? Yes, that’s good news to me because if we are going to re-start I’d rather do it ice free, let’s get back to dirt. It’s not fun screwing around on a 25,000 lb ice skate. The bad news is there’s nothing on the horizon.

I’m thinking about a quad!! Need to road the girls in order to get them into shape for fall bird season anyway.

Be Safe,
Keith, Sandy and The Girls
