I also talked to the forestry dept. today , they said the only thing still open is the r.r. grade. I cancelled and am going to the east side by crivitz and mountain. Thank for the posts and good luck with the trails .

 

I just drove past the Days Inn in Hurley and it was full of ATV's all with mud on them. I don't think they got full of mud from the railroad grade. You have to remember the forestry Dept are Gov. Workers they get paid if you come to Hurley or not. I haven't heard of any trails being closed by any local people who ride them. This is the only place I heard of trail closings. I see they have the mud pit ready it's behind The Iron Horse bar this year. You can stand on the hill and look down at the ATV's it should be better for the spectators. Squeaks's bar is having a trail side cookout all weekend long. If you really want a mud pit try behind sidkicks bar. Days INN number is (715) 561-3500 you can call and ask them if the trails are open and how many ATV's were staying there this weekend!

 

The latest news is were under another flood watch for today and tonight!

 

O.k. I'm back in . I think i'm going to go with you guys on this one and ride reguardless ! We should find a spot to meet and ride together. Do you think it will be too muddy to get through with sport machines and 3- wheelers ?

 

No floods last night! The rally is on! See you in Hurley!

 

I am interested in heading up that way. We will be in Park Falls for the weekend.

Anyone have a map and/or info on where to park and launch? Where are some of these bars and hotels at? Are they up and down 51 or in or near town?

Thanks for any info.

 

Downtown Hurley on the lower block has a open lot to park in, it's by the strip clubs. Most people park at the hotel that they stay at. Ironwood MI, has made it legal to ride the roads from the hotels to Hurley for the rally. Bear chasers bar at Island lake is a pretty cool bar and very ATV friendly. It is the only bar who has a owner that rides ATV's.

 

We will be staying at the Great Northern in Mercer . We will be a group of 3 with a black ds 650, a honda 350 x 3-wheeler and a 400 ex . We will be cooking out in the lot on our bbq almost every nite . We will be by a black floe enclosed sled trailer and a red blazer form IL.

 

Great to see you all coming!
I will be on a RED 450 Kodiak riding with the rest of the HO Train that ride 500 Polaris's (5) and maybe a 450 Honda.

We will be staying in Glidden area at a camp and meet up with the Floodrunner at Island lake around 10:30 each morning starting Friday thru Sunday.

Hope to see you on the trails[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]
