Get there! I rode yesterday with Sub Zero Hero and his buddies and we had a blast! They are an awesome buch of guys. SZH is a genuine guy who cares soley about everyones enjoyment of our sport. If you talk to the man for more than 90 seconds you'll know what I mean. Every second his helmet is off he's asking everyone how they liked the trails. If the answer is anything less than perfect, he heads out in the groomer to make it right. I can honestly say that I have never ridden such flat trails on a weekend in my life. I would encourage everyone who rides that area to join their club so we always have a place like this to ride. SZH is busting his ass and it shows. Not to mention his wife is a wonderful hostess and one HELL of a cook. Thanks to you both! See you soon.

I was in the Forks this weekend went to grand falls Sat with my girlfriend there were plenty of sleds on the trails and they were holding up great. I got to see a mountain lion on the way to Bulldog camps (great lunch!!) and went to Coburn Mt. and that was all in good shape they are doing a great job on the trails and are a pleasure to ride I will post a few pics when I get off my butt and get my camera from the truck.Thank to SZH don't change the grooming schedule they are AWESOME! Hey MXD you know how those Arctic Cat guys are always a ball showing contest...wink wink!

BTW, this is the reason I never stay the whole weekend. I can't be away from my little guy longer than 24 hrs without severe withdrawl

I won't argue that point I just haven't experienced it.Side note you might want to get him some yellow sheets you don't want that color green becoming imprinted on him at a young age....LOL

sub zero hero

We forgot to sign me up over the weekend. Can you email me the form and I will mail it out this week?

Ya the people at Bulldog say they have pictures of it at first when I told her I figure she was going to tell me I was full of shit but she was very matter of fact. If you are interested it was on the trail to bulldog about 100 yards down from the shutdown loop.I wish I had a helmet cam!
