ilsnow storm center 1/16/15
I got my lastest episode of the ilsnow storm center online. Yes, the possiblity of a snow event for Sunday afternoon into Monday is real, but I don’t think it’s the storm of the century by any means. We’ll take each and every flake we can get! My big concern for the rest of the winter […]
Moose River Plains, Inlet and Old Forge: Update 1/14/15
It had gotten down to -18*F last night and had only “warmed up” to -8*F by ride time. John Foley from Speculator picked me up at the compound before 9AM and we trailered out to the Brown’s farm parking lot at the end of Cedar River Road. The mile of road past the Brown’s farm […]

Snow pack is around 8-12 inches at Indian Lake and is probably over a foot heading out into Moose River Plains. Took a spin around the Indian Lake village trails. They […]

That’s sub-par for mid January, but it’s better than looking at green grass. Bitterly cold air […]
