4wheelingmama Posted May 29, 2010 Share Posted May 29, 2010 Cowhead - we are headed up this afternoon. Probably be there around 2 or so. I have a bright yellow polaris sportsman. So if you are there and see me come chat, you can ride with us. I think there will be 6 or so of us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4wheelingmama Posted May 29, 2010 Share Posted May 29, 2010 Here's a link to my appleton photos from last fall.http://www.facebook.com/album.php?id=731...da4c33bc960c060 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pulsar_nx Posted May 29, 2010 Share Posted May 29, 2010 Heres the scoop. The old park is closed, looks to be all of it. Pretty much all of the new park is open including both of the new parking lots. There are some water hazards in the new part and a few that are closed due to deep water. Lots of people out there today and she was starting to get dusty by the time that I left.

4wheelingmama Posted May 30, 2010 Share Posted May 30, 2010 pulsar_nx's got it right. Sucks that the old part is closed. We were there from 2pm till dark and it was really dusty and there were tons of people there...until the game warden showed up. He handed out a bunch of tickets to people who were riding 2 up with kids. Make sure you are following all the rules. We talked to him and he thinks the old part should be open in a couple weeks as long as we don't get any big rains. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dozer Posted June 29, 2010 Share Posted June 29, 2010 Went on saturday and had a great time. Watch out though some of those holes are DEEP! Had a problem with the seat wanting to float off and my storage box on top of the rack filling with water but other than that the Grizzly ran like a champ all day!

gr8icefishinmind Posted June 29, 2010 Share Posted June 29, 2010 Was anything blocked off or what it all open? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dozer Posted June 29, 2010 Share Posted June 29, 2010 The whole original part is closed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4wheelingmama Posted June 29, 2010 Share Posted June 29, 2010 I talked with mike johnson. He's in charge up there. Since we had a bunch of rain, there is a chance the old part won't be open until August unless we can get some really dry hot weather.

gr8icefishinmind Posted June 29, 2010 Share Posted June 29, 2010 So where is the old part? Is it the slough area with all the water trails?? If that is closed i may not go, that was one of the funnest parts! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4wheelingmama Posted June 29, 2010 Share Posted June 29, 2010 That would be the old part. Everything is under water. With all this rain we've had, there is alot more water and mud in the new part though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gr8icefishinmind Posted June 29, 2010 Share Posted June 29, 2010 Yeah that is true...........i'll let ya know what day we go, should have a group of 6-8 people or so! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DELONG73 Posted June 30, 2010 Share Posted June 30, 2010 This place sounds like a good one to hit. I see alot of statements of sections being closed due to too deep of water. What is too deep? Saw a mention of the trails under 12" of water and closed. Pretty shallow to be closed. My bikes are setup for mud(31" Outlaws) mostly but have some stock tires for the Renegade. Anyone heading here this weekend? Looks to be about 150 miles from me in Big Lake.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4wheelingmama Posted June 30, 2010 Share Posted June 30, 2010 We are headed out there at least one day. If I get my way Friday evening, Saturday and Monday. There a lot of water, but the main reason i've heard it is closed is because the emergency road is under water and they wouldn't be able to get an ambulance in.

gr8icefishinmind Posted June 30, 2010 Share Posted June 30, 2010 I'm hoping for one day between friday and next wednesday! But saturday isn't looking good and sunday is a for sure no go! So i am leaning towards friday afternoon! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4wheelingmama Posted July 1, 2010 Share Posted July 1, 2010 We are headed up Monday around 10am for the day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
