I forgot to mention yesterday, that Hughie got stopped by the DNR trail police. They wanted to make sure that his insurance and registration and trail permits were current. And they were!

This was our first cold morning of the trip. And it was cold. – 25 C. C is for Canadian…… Not sure what the equates to in F. We decided to make a later departure, and let it warm up a little. Glad we did. Even then there was one sled that needed a jump start. We headed over to Eveleth for lunch. A great spot. The trail we chose was closed which caused a bit of an issue getting to the restaurant. But Between Hughie’s knowledge and Pete’s GPS, we got there.

The parking lot of the hotel, looks like a sea of Snowmobiles!

Altogether about be 100 miles

Mike has been riding since very little. We call him the “snowmobile whisper” as he has been great at teaching his two kids how to ride(Jazzy and Matthew). Mike has been working hard this trip keeping Pete (trail boss) in line:). Mike “thinks” he is boss of Trail Boss! OK… maybe he is….. at times?

I became a charter member of MichCanSka in 2010, when the club was formed. I bought my first snowmobile in 1966 and I’ve been riding ever since. I went to Alaska with the club in 2010 and loved every minute of it. “He’s the fire chief.”
