Back to Lake Namakagon

Today Gib, Jean and I decided to head back up to lake Namakagon. Last Sunday when we were up there we missed a turn on the ride back. We ended up back on the lake where it was snowing so hard visibility was at about one tenth of a mile. At least we were headed in the right direction. So we decided to run the route in reverse. Todays trip was in a clockwise direction, me leaving from home on Lake Placid and picking up Gib and Jean on the Tiger Cat Flowage.
The top map is Sawyer County where we started and the bottom map is Bayfield County and Lake Namakagon. We never really did figure out where we messed up. We were trying to find trail 75 off of trail 15.
Gassed up and ready to go.
Yes that is open water. A beautiful flowing stream. And that my friends is why you stay on these beautiful marked trails.
Stop to check the map.
More trail pics.
A good day for pictures.
First stop was Lakewoods resort.
Lost Land Lake. Trail 3 between Namakagon and here was terrible. Needed grooming, alot of bad moguls to negotiate. It sucked after awhile. I stood up for a fare amount of it. So my legs got a workout along with my upper body, shoulders, arms and torso.
Next stop was the Reel Livin resort on Lost Land Lake.
This was our last stop today.
This is the reason for some of our stops, besides refreshments and bathroom breaks. You have a card that you get stamped at 6 or 7 bars and receive a free t-shirt.
Next ride? Somebody mentioned Clam Lake, WI.

  1. John, it's neat to see pictures from the trails. Us non sled riders only see snowmobilers along side the shoulder of the highway and never get to see the trails through the woods. It looks like you've had some great days to go riding!
