NYE Ride
Base camp was Gravel Lake in Lawton, MI. New year's day we rode from Gravel Lake to Paw Paw, we stopped in Lawton for gas and a break at Decoy Duck's. Larry got ice cream (?). The trails were ok and the traffic was pretty decent too.
Saturday night we decided to head west toward Glenwood and Keeler. We stopped in Keeler Keg for dinner. Food was decent and the pizza looked good. We'll be trying there again. It took us about 1 hour and 15 minutes to get there from Gravel Lake. We saw heavier traffic this route. Good news is, we are getting more snow. On the way back we detoured to Sister Lakes for gas and a visit to the Lakeview Inn. Bad fog and low temperatures rolled in during the ride back. Visibility was really bad
Hopefully Larry has some pictures to add.
Looking to ride again January 22-24th weekend, anyone interested?
Hopefully Larry has some pictures to add.

Mancelona, MI - Dec 12, 2009
Taking advantage of the early snowfall, a small group of us went up to Mancelona, MI this past weekend. We started at the Mancelona Motel and covered over 70 miles - hitting up the Jordan Valley, Lakes of the North and Blue Bear trails. It was a beautiful day and the trails were pretty good, except for a few rough patches (woopdees) between Larry's Seven-Ski and The Hideaway (just outside Starvation Lake). Over all a great weekend and an early treat to the snowmobile season.

Thanksgiving day is one of the biggest days for the county park.GENESEE TOWNSHIP, Michigan — Off-road enthusiasts raised $331 and 575 pounds of food for the Food Bank of Eastern Michigan on Thanksgiving at the Mounds ORV Area in Genesee Township.
The popular ORV site always draws huge crowds on Thanksgiving morning but this year more than 500 vehicles poured into the facility between 8 a.m. and 1:30 p.m.
Genesee County Parks officials working at the gate said off-roaders began lining up at 6 a.m., with the line stretching all the way to Irish Road a mile away.
The What Lies Beyond Jeep Club hosts a warming tent and charity drive at the Mounds each Thanksgiving. This year’s food collection was far beyond expectations, said president Cody Dean.
