Wheelin the beach Mar,08

[Todd]

This past weekend I thought I would hold a wheelin run up at cliff ridge. We had a warm up and cool down the previous week followed with little snow fall. So I thought a run up the lookout would be a good challenge. And it proved to be too hard of one. Set the restrains to 35’s and bigger. Set off to the cliffs at 11am with Jaret’s Ranger, Millers YJ, My BTR, and Eric’s 250 special.

Made really slow progress at the ridge, Turned Jaret back as he wasn’t locked and was going to ride along. Made it past the entrance river and realized it was just too soft. So we decided to try five mile point as it was close to where we where. At this time we noticed that millers steering box was ripping of the frame so he was done for the day. Always more snow mobile traffic out at five mile anyway. Oh ya, you cant winter wheel anywhere up here where the mobiles haven’t already packed it down.

So we get there and find that its still to soft of Jaret to wheel. So me and Eric head out with Jaret on the back of my rig and Miller of the back of Erics as we both had passengers. Our Buddy Orrin showed up later with his tube buggy.

Going was slow. Had to creep to stay on top of the pack. Any wheel spin and you would sink. Got out the beach and there was little snow due to the wind coming of the big lake. Had a fire and cooked some food watched the sun set then headed out.

Five mile point, Lake Superior MI.

You use to go to MTU or just been around the area? 5-mile point is a blast. This spring if you want to get back out in the bush in the Keweenaw let me know, you can go on one of our club runs.

looks like your wheeling on the moon plus the snow

not much in the way of mountains anywhere??

Thats because the really flat desolate looking pictures are of Lake Superior. I cant believe how much ice we have on the lakes this year, it has been a cold winter. Hopefully it helps with the lake levels though.

no not MTU but i live in MQT and have run the triple A up through skanee and wheeled the trails and beaches round there. i am trying to get my $100 1/2 ton wheelable again i just need some 33 or 35' tires for it but the ranger takes alot of my timeand extra cash.

I love that beach. Especially in the fall. Screwed around there many a times.

is the trail to the beach bad or the beach itself?

Once you get the beach there is always less snow due to the winds. The road out was the hardest part. Big tires at low PSI is key with most winter wheelin up here.

So you at Tech then? You ever hear of the MTU four wheelers? Im the V.P. of the club. I set the trail rides and such. You should come to a meeting. Every Thursday 7 pm Fisher 325. We had a stocker run last spring and plan on having another this spring that Saturday after spring fling. You should bring the your ranger out, good times.

Yeah I am at Tech and I know who you are. I am friends with The Bronco house Todd Cimermancic's. I am on the hybrid vehicle team. (the link below). Andrew Best and I really want to go if you know who he is.
