Motorcycle mud madness

Had a blast this weekend motoring around up at the cabin with my cousin.We rode from his spot in longville to ours in Remer.70 miles round trip in 3 hrs.3/4 of the journey was atv trail the rest was dirt road.The land in our area is swampy so even though it was dry out, there are still mud puddles everywhere.These puddles don't have hard bottoms like in the Chequamy where you can blast through most of them.These are deep and mucky.Axle deep muck lies at the bottom.Every incline had washouts on either side with large rocks strewn about to make navigating the trails a little more challenging.The mud pit pictured was the nastiest.We both got stuck in this marsh and had to muscle the machines through.I was getting some good hight on flinging the mud.It was whipping up over my shoulder at times.Saw a whole bunch of grouse.Some would fly right down the trail along side of you for a few seconds.Ben said he should have tried to grab one.When we got back Ben was beat,His arms and hands were tingling from all the vibration.
I got the ground blind and tree stands ready for this weekend.Time to fill the freezer.




I am so glad I picked last weekend to go up north.The guys worked from 8am to 9pm on saturday.Came monday they were a bit ornary after such a short weekend.This is a typical exterior wall in the place.You can't see it very good but they left a bunch of Hilti pins in the wall from the concrete forms.The chipping hammer tracks on the beams and columns are obvious from taking the plaster off.I bet they told the workers to do the crappiest job possible,and don't blend anything.Notice the galvanized flat stock trim around the windows.
