Default same with me

Sorry I didn't follow to the campground to say goodbye's either. Had a long drive ahead and wanted to get moving. As it was, I only caught the 4th quarter of the state game (crappy ending).

It was nice meeting all of you that I met yesterday, although as bad as I am with names, I really don't remember many names. I had a good time and the kids did too. I always find it funny that the kids seem to have a blast running around in the sand, even though if you tell them to go run they'll tell you no. Nothing can beat running up, and down, a hill.

Knowing several of you are from IN, I'll try to show up for a Badlands trip sometime!!

As for names, Shoup ensured nobody would forget his. The blind hole bury was priceless.

You got that right Keith. What the hell had to try right? I put a video up of what I had as far as video goes. It's posted in the main area of the Great Lakes SEction.

Just wanted to say thanks to Woodweavil for getting this trip rolling and the excellent job leading the way on the trails. We had a good time.

Thanks guys! i will do a better job of scouting the trails next time
there is a trail that we can pic up just outside of niles that will take us most of the way to muskegon and then we should roll up to the kalkaska area and then to twisted trails. that sounds like a late spring run! can you say TOPLESS Instead of driving all the way on the hwy do it in the trails.

Contact me next spring, I have a trail mapped out from Muskegon to just about 6 miles south of Baldwin. Buy next spring I should have it mapped all the way to Wolf Lake just north of Baldwin. It's about 90% trails, but nothing extreme.

You guys might want to check out the Blessing of the Jeeps up in Mesick north of Baldwin. Great inexpensive time and over 1000 Jeeps. Could do a trail ride up on Friday, spend the night near Mesick area. Check out the Blessing of the Jeeps Saturday, ride later in the day. Spend another night and Ride Sunday south for home.
