What are the best Class 2 ATV trails around the east central part of the state?

I am looking for some easy to moderate trails with great scenic views. Not really looking for a straight line trail like an old railroad but would prefer that over a bunch of mud holes.

Here are my options.

Chengwatana State Forest OHV Trails

St. Croix State Forest OHV Trails

Gandy Dancer Trail

What do you guys recommend there or around there?

You could ride the Red Top system between Isle and Mcgrath. Its an offshoot of the Soo Line trail. My dad and I took his Polaris Ranger back in there, it was pretty fun. There are a handful of mudholes that are optional or just ride the winding trails. Class 2 has access to the whole system with the exception of a one way trail called Ten Bruin Adventure. That trail is only wide enough for a standard wheeler. Have fun!

what you got for a class 2 atvs

I went back and forth between the mule or the ranger.

I ended up with the Mule.

Street legal, goes fast enough for me, not quite as big, a little cheaper etc.

And I really like it so far.

I don't ride trails much and don't mud at all but I plan to hit a few easy to moderate trails this year.

In the winter it is my mobile fish house. lol

It is a curtis cab.

The doors and back come off easily (one bolt each) and leave the framework, windshield, and top on it.

The windshield flips up but would be a pretty big job to take off.

It has a heater, fan, and windshield wipers in there also.

I am hooking up turnsignals very soon too.

This is the Trans mule so it can be converted from a "four door" to a "2 door" very easily too.

      If you really want to treat your wife (and yourself) with a remote operated trolling motor, the Minn Kota Ulterra is about easy as it gets.  Auto stow and deploy is pretty awesome.  You just have to turn the motor on when you go out and that the last time you have to touch it.   24V 80lb.  60 inch shaft is probably the right length for your boat.  They ain’t cheap - about $3k - but neither one of you would have to leave your seat to use it all day.

      Wanderer, thanks for your reply. I do intend for it to be 24 volt, with a thrust of 70-80. Spot lock is a must (my wife is looking forward to not being the anchor person any more).  With my old boat we did quite a lot of pulling shad raps and hot n tots, using the trolling motor. Unlikely that we will fish in whitecaps, did plenty of that when I was younger. I also need a wireless remote, not going back to a foot pedal. We do a fair amount of bobber fishing. I don't think I will bother with a depth finder on the trolling motor. I am leaning toward moving my Garmin depth finder from my old boat to the new one, just because I am so used to it and it works well for me. I am 70 years old and kinda set in my ways...

      Dang, new content and now answers.   First, congrats on the new boat!   My recommendation is to get the most thrust you can in 24V, assuming a boat that size isn’t running 36V.  80 might be tops?  I’m partial to MinnKota.     How do you plan to use the trolling motor is an important question too.     All weather or just nice weather?   Casting a lot or bait dragging?   Bobber or panfish fishing?   Spot lock?  Networked with depth finders?  What brand of depth finders?
