Unfortunately Imho when considering repair shops pay their techs minimally to diagnose and repair highly sophisticated powersports equipment problems with specialized tools etc. it's a tough situation to be in especially considering you need it now to maintain your trails. 8+ inches of snow predicted this Saturday in Baraga county. Best of luck.

These ones really stood out to me. Just another reason why the Huron Mountain club pisses me off so much. Consistently gets the most snow, has the best mountains in Michigan, incredible lakes, streams and lake shoreline, and it's private. 20,000 acres that we all deserve to share.

It's so desolate up there in Baraga and Marquette counties 20k acres isn't much I've been told the Huron mountain club runs there own private maintenance staff, security, road maintenance, fire fighting crews, and pay to get those lakes stocked if the very fortunate want a slice of the UP and pay for it let them have it in peace.
The fact the up is over 10.5 million acres coupled with a population of around 300k every man woman and child who actually live up there could each get a 35 acre chunk of land . There's areas up there where the nearest residency is over 10 miles away. That's why I love it up there. It is annoying and frustrating that multinational out of stateforestry "management" conglomerates buy millions of acres of UP land than restrict it's use by gating and land locking it. Yet completely take full advantage of the cfr tax credits that in a much smaller scale individual Michigan residents are helping to finance. I degress.

If it makes you mad, I'd suggest you buy into this privet club. If you can't do that today, than I'd suggest you aim that anger at your ancestors. Personally, I've not the time to get mad at people who purchased a chunk of property, X years ago.

Some news on the tow machine repair front. It's now at Houghton Power sports who hadn't yet found why the engine ran so poorly while warm, since the fuel pump tested fine, but did see the Y exhaust tube was cracked. It's replacement will run us $400 and the reason it had got rather noisy.

Good news was it's snow plow was fixed! (by me)

Glad to hear. Hopefully they get it figured out.
You will probably need it real soon.

The exhaust can't be welded ?

 

[jjeff]

Probably can't be welded by a factory powersports "part exchanger".
