Snowmobile Conditions: Update 3/3/13
Time for another famous ilsnow.com drive-by Route 30 report. My snow surveys revealed 18-26 inches of snow pack this afternoon along the Route 30 corridor between Indian Lake and Speculator. 2 Miles from Hell was in very rough and bumpy condition late Sunday afternoon. I saw dozens of snowmobiles bouncing up and down on that […]
Indian Lake to Perkins Clearing: Ride Report 3/1/13

Snow pack is 16-24 inches “in the woods” around Indian Lake and Speculator, with less on southerly exposures and village highway roadsides. The usual “snow-bowls” west of Route 30 hold over 2 feet of snow. The bigger lakes are starting to get snow dunes from the strong winds we had this week, but the snow […]
